Insulinoma-anyone else have one

Had one - Then had a distal pancreatectomy which left me type 2 and still having problems with it. cant seem to get numbers under control all the time. Cheers–Kim

if you had an insulinoma, then you would not be a type 2, but an “Other”, and most likely need insulin in order to survive. i’m an other and am currently on a pump. my treatment is the same as Type 1.

Well the clinic Dr says i`m a type 2 becuse i make some insulin, just not enough–If i was type 1 then i would not make any? But its weird because some days I’m hypo and then the other day i’m hyper-- No happy medium

whether you make insulin or not has nothing to do with it. and not type 1, OTHER. you can learn more about classifications of diabetes here: http://sweettalk.org/2009/episode-two/
