Hi there
@Rosie9876. I am not a knowledgeable person when it comes down to low carb diets. If don't mind me asking what do your typical meals look like? 10-20 gms of carbs is not a lot if it's per day, or is this per meal?
I see from your previous posts you are on Dapagliflozin.
As for your question on insulin resistance, it is hard to say. Generally speaking, in T2 diabetes, insulin resistance plays a significant role along with a pancreas that is unable to compensate for this resistance. That's generally speaking. We can only speak in general as tests for Insulin resistance itself are complex. People with high Insulin resistance generally produce a lot of insulin to compensate for their lack of insulin sensitivity. C- peptide tests are used to see how much insulin is being produced by the pancreas, usually these tests are given when there is a question mark over the type of diabetes.
If C-peptides are high then this could be indicator as to how much insulin the pancreas is producing to compensate, if the figure is high, then possibly IR is the cause.
