[QUOTE="Mr_Pot, post: 1842440, member: 216415"] What most of us controlled Type 2's are trying to do is keep our blood glucose low enough to avoid getting any of the complications. If you have vertigo, but avoid tall buildings, then you have controlled but not cured the problem. However, I am suprised that there are not more people who are cured. It is said that Type 2 is a result of diminished insulin production, insulin resistance or a combination of the two. In my case I suspect my pancreas is wearing out with old age and I am not going to get younger, so not much I can do about that except not put too much load on what insulin I can produce. But, with those only suffering with Insulin Resistance why is the situation nor reversible? If IR is brought on by too high blood glucose or excess weight why does it not go away when those things are addressed? Is there some switch that once activated is irreversible? [/QUOTE]
