[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1311325, member: 41816"] Speaking from my personal perspective, I have IR from several different causes, which led to T2. But I don't have enough techno-speak to determine whether they are already included on your list. Here they are, in the order that I think they appeared: Age 4 - Reactive hypoglycaemia (excess insulin response to carbs and/or insufficient glucagon, unsure which, or if there are other factors involved) Age 12-16 - onset of polycystic ovary syndrome Age 16-18 - development of prolactinoma Age 15-25 - significant weight gain Age - 30ish - belated diagnosis of prolactinoma and prescription of Cabergoline - known to increase insulin resistance Age 40+ - development of type 2 diabetes It would take a great deal more medical knowledge than I have to know which of my list relates to which of your list... :) [/QUOTE]
