It is when u have diabetes mellitus.

The Lilly Corporation is supplying my insulin for free due to a program they have called the lillycares patient assistance program, or you can try the PPA (partners for perscription Assistance to help find your insulin.  I told my doctor about not being able to afford my testing supplies, and he talked to some of the pharmacutical reps that come to his office and they sent me 6 months worth of testing strips and lancets, and said as long as i need them, they'll send them.  so ask your doctor about something like that

The Pancreas is pretty darned important.  Without a properly functioning pancreas you get diabetes.\n\nThe pancreas is an organ in the digestive and endocrine system that serves two major functions: exocrine (producing pancreatic juice containing digestive enzymes) and endocrine (producing several important hormones, including insulin)

you are to strictly follow the advice of your physician regarding your food and medicines. you did not mention whether you belong to insulin dependent or non insulin dependent. if you belong to insulin dependent category, oral tablets do not work. only insulin is to be given to control.consult a qualified endocrinologist or a diabetalogist

Your insulin producing gland is your pancreas.  It can get infected by viruses or bacteria, which you can pick up anywhere.  Then it can get backed up, which caused the pain in your side.  If it did burst, it would have released lots of enzymes into your abdominal cavity, which holds all your other digestive organs.  Those enzymes would have eaten away at everything in there.  Yes, you are very lucky to have caught it.  As to how it happened, it could have been an infection, or it could have been intestinal problems (your pancreas dumps into your small intestine, so if you have intestinal problems, it can back up).  Hope that helps.

I took medication for awhile but they didn't work at all.  My doctor ended up putting me on insulin, even though I'm a type 2 and technically shouldn't be insulin-dependent.  It's what you might need to do.

it could be that your pancreas is rejecting sugar because you are putting more sugar in your body than the pancreas can normally take. it can cause all the aymptoms of diabetes. try cutting your sugar intake down to at least 3-5 grams of sugar per any one item , and symptoms should decrease. soda and bread have the highest amounts of sugar, and people often consume way too much. i recently had the same problem, except i had shaking. i thought something was wrong with my nervous system.  had all the tests done, and found out that i was putting too much sugar in my body. i now drink sugar free soda , only when i get the urge for a crbonated drink, and i drink at least two glasses of green tea a day, and the shaking, and other symptoms went away.

Insufficient insulin levels lead to hyperglycemia, which is an abnormally high blood glucose (sugar) level. The overall medical condition is called diabetes.\n\nType I diabetes occurs when your immune system destroys the Islets of Langerhans in the pancreas, which produce insulin.\n\nType II diabetes occurs when the pancreas produces the correct amount of insulin, but either the insulin is defective or the cells that require insulin for glucose uptake become resistant to insulin. \n\nTherefore, if your pancreas isn't making ENOUGH insulin, it is probably due to Type I diabetes.

That would be murder.  Diabetics would die if you took their insulin away from them.  That would be murder as well.

A sudden increase in blood glucose concentration leads to the release of a specific hormone in the human body: insulin. Insulin is released to reduce the concentration of sugar in the blood. In order to do this, it promotes muscular uptake of sugar, by promoting muscular activity.  \n\nThis is why people with diabetes do not show this phenomenon. Type I diabetes patients do not secrete insulin (hence the need for insulin shots). Type II diabetes patients have modified receptors that prevent insulin from being recognized by the muscle cell.

This is a good question, but let's define "important" as "necessary for organismal survival".  In this case, both are EQUALLY important.  The endocrine function of the pancreas is to secrete insulin and glucagon which help to lower and raise the blood sugar levels, respectively.  Blood sugar level homeostasis is necessary for human survival.  On the other hand, the exocrine pancreas secretes trypsinogen, chymotrypsinogen, carboxypeptidase, pancreatic lipase, pancreatic amylase, and other substances which aid in the digestion of carbohydrates, proteins, and fats.  Obviously, this is a function which is also necessary to human survival.  You simply can not live with only one of these pancreatic functions operational and so it appears that neither function takes precedence over the other.  Again, very thoughtful and insightful question!

HI, I wish there was an easy answer for this question! Apparently we are getting closer to a cure, there have certainly been a lot of medical advances made in recent years. Diabetes can be an incredibly frustrating and debilitating disease to live with. I know exactly how you feel as my 6 year old daughter has it. Not a single day goes by that I don't wish it was me and not her that had to live with this thing. Has your boyfriend considered an insulin pump?? They are fantastic for allowing a lot more freedom and flexibility when living with type 1 diabetes. He is very lucky to have someone who cares so much about him! Best wishes.

its the islet cell adenoma...\nif u have a tumour (dont worry its just those cell which proliferate ie divide at higher rate)in the islets cell in the pancreas , u might get insulinoma ie these islets cell particularly beta cell , relaese the insulin, which causes,as all knows lowers blood glucose level .so as there is more no of cells (Beta cells) , more amount of insulin is secreted and can cause hypoglycemic state , siezures,dizziness and other symptoms...\n\n\nrefer :http://www.nlm.nih.gov/medlineplus/ency/article/000387.htm\n\n\nrefer2:http://www.ferretnews.org/insulinoma.html\n\n\nhope this answer is useful to u . let me know if it does .

What are you trying to ask?\nYes. You will die without insulin.

I'm not sure, but I believe PTT causes pancreatitis by its molecules slowly infiltrating the pancreas. There is already a "P" molecule at one end of the pancreas, so that much of the work is already done. From there, PTT need only dispose of the "S" molecule at the other end of the pancreas, then insert its two (2) "T" elements. From there, they produce the "I" and "IS" molecules, thus creating pancreatitis.

I'm unaware of this working. Talk to your doctor and see what he / she has to say about coffee and diabetes.

When you eat, your stomach produces glucose that acts like an acid to break down the food, pass it into your blood and absorb it into the body tissues. Insulin packs the food into your body tissues and, at the same time, flushes the excess glucose out of your body. Insulin is made by the pancreas and diabetes occurs when the pancreas fails to produce enough insulin to do these two jobs. Therefore an excess of glucose also builds up in the blood and bercause it is acidic, it eats away at your body's blood vessels. It attacks the liver, kidneys, eye retinas and the toes causing kidney disease, blindness and sometimes requiring amputation of the feet. So, the second part of your question is correct: the cells cannot deliver energy without insulin but there is also a build up of glucose in the blood which attacks the blood vessels.
