[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1493328, member: 32394"] Atrophy of the pancreas is when the pancreas gets actually physically smaller. Atrophy of the pancreas is usually associated with age, obesity or chronic pancreatitis. This doesn't happen in type 1 diabetics. Some one who has type 1 will have a pancreas that's looks the same as anyone else's. The difference in a type 1s pancreases is that their immune system has killed off the insulin producing beta cells. Had you had a CT scan to determine atrophy of the pancreas? [/QUOTE]
