Insulin utilization?

Hello,

In diabetic2 with so called insulin resistance having persisting hyperglycemia, whether insulin can be normally produced and secreted but lesser utilized so wasted?

If yes above,how such insulin can remain unutilized and wasted?

Best wishes.
 
Ahhhh... was that a question?

Anyways. Hypoglycemia happens when your pancreas is producing too much insulin, so the blood sugar falls dramatically. Your pancreas would be overeacting to sugar and producing too much insulin, which in turn decreases your blood glucose levels. Hyperglycemia is when your pancreas is not producing much or any insluin anymore and your blood glucose goes too high.
 
Is it necessary in diabetics2 with persisting hyperglycemia and insulin resistance that normally secreted insulin decreses glucose levels normally? As such, abnormal waste of insulin can be thought due to its short half life?

Other question:-

Can persisting hyperglycemia be a cause/reason to persisting hyperglycemia--a vicious circle?
 
No. When you have insulin resistance the blood glucose levels decrease too fast. Short life? We are not talking about a decaying atom here.

Uncontrolled diabetes is always a vicious cycle.
 
Let me make my questions more clear:-


1. Can persisting hyperglycemia be a reason/cause to getting hyperglycemia as vicious cycle due to reasons **other than additional
food intake which may be as a result of decreased glucose utilization?

2. Can all or many cases of persistant hyperglycemia, so thought due to insulin resistance, be as a result of decreased exposure of insulin
to target cells instead of its decreased senstivity to target cells as a result of which insulin just wasted due to its lesser half life?
