[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2422869, member: 6467"] I recall that there was a theory some time back that a possible strategy was to put T2s on insulin immediately on diagnosis to take the load off the pancreas and prevent further damage. I haven't seen anything about that recently, and I think it would probably only be appropriate for those who have been tested for insulin production and found to be below normal. However if the pancreas is over producing, possibly adding insulin might remove the demand on the pancreas and allow it to return to normal levels. This assumes that the main aim is to reduce Insulin Resistance early on so the pancreas no longer has to over produce. Interesting topic. [/QUOTE]
