[QUOTE="LooperCat, post: 1909284, member: 468055"] A type two can also become a type one if their immune system attacks and kills the beta cells of the pancreas. Similarly a type one can develop serious insulin resistance and become type two. They used to call this “double diabetes” - one of the reasons I adopted a low carb way of eating was because I was concerned that my insulin use was massively increasing and I was worried about this very thing. It’s now half what it was before. Having one does not protect you from getting the other - being two completely different conditions that happen to be characterised by similar symptoms if left untreated. [/QUOTE]
