[QUOTE="Marie 2, post: 2174558, member: 475037"] If you are a type 2, it is a insulin resistance problem. So type 2's are already making more insulin, just not using it right. I believe over time your pancreas can wear out and not produce enough, but it is more of a not using properly as not having enough. I think if you just try to add more insulin without doing anything else your insulin resistance just keeps going up. Some type 2's can just tweak their diet some (less junk food) and lose weight and in my husbands case he takes metformin and start to reverse it as my husband has done. He does not low carb. 40% of type 1's are misdiagnosed as type 2's at first. It still happens way too often, so if things don't make sense sometimes you could be type 1 and not a type 2. Always keep that in mind, just in case. [/QUOTE]
