Two minor points: T2 isn’t controlled with insulin; it’s a syndrome of insulin resistance and other metabolic dysfunctions. And “manufactured insulin” came on the scene in 1922. Before that, T1 diabetes was universally fatal.
- a3n 8y agoMy T2 is not treated with insulin today, but it could be later if it gets worse. And I am indeed talking about history pre-20th century. For example, diabetes used to be diagnosed by peeing on the ground and seeing if ants we attracted to it. According to whatever diabetes history book I checked out of a medical library on inter library loan.
