I was (eventually!) diagnosed with chronic pancreatitis which results in poor production of insulin and also has a very significant impact on the digestion of food and in gaining nourishment from it. In my case I’d also lost a very significant percentage of body weight though thanks to Creon I’ve now regained most of it. I would suggest that that if you are seeking to shed weight you might do well to reduce your carb intake, though it would be well worthwhile discussing this with a diabetes dietician which is what I did a few years ago, she gave me calorie targets based on my weight and height.Now I’m on multiple daily injections of insulin I find control is fairly easy as I can adjust insulin to cope with the carbs in a meal. I don’t think that the label of Type 3C really makes a significant difference to how anyone manages their diabetes as it really only explains what caused the diabetes.</blockquote>
