Pancreatic insufficiency and type 2 diabetes

Hello,

Does anyone in the forum have pancreatic insufficiency?

Thank you!

I have passed two acute pancreatitis, in case it serves you

If pancreatic insufficiency is that the pancreas almost does not work, it is my case.

Rather, I think it refers to the lack of production of pancreatic enzymes (amylase, lipase, etc ...), not insulin, but well it will take us out of doubt

I have type 2 diabetes and pancreatic insufficiency but I don't know if pancreatic insufficiency comes through diabetes

To me, in my case it was the pancreatitis that caused me the diabetes, in principle they told me what type 2, but with pills did not run, then they looked if it was lada, so after a journey through several endocrinethat my diabetes was caused by the damage done by pancreatic enzymes, (they call it 3c) and that it is neither type 1, nor type 2, nor lada and the treatment is different from both.

They are going to test the elastase.If I have diarrhea and belly pain after food but I have been like this to diagnose diabetes years.The doctor has told me that he is sometimes associated with my type of diabetes (MODY 3)

Well, it seems that they are not going to do it to me, they have denied it (I have asked me for the header).In a couple of weeks I go to the endocrine of this province and I will comment on it, in case I consider that I must send it to me, that maybe it tells me not because it does not see it necessary but I will tell you
