controlled with medicines and type II is very common and not so severe like type I.

IN TYPE -1 , PANCREAS IN NOT WORKING AT ALL .THAT MEANS, SECRETION OF INSULIN IS NOT THERE FROM PANCREAS-BETA CELLS HAVE BECOME DORMANT.IN SUCH CASE ,ONE HAS TO TAKE INSULULIN INJECTIONS BEFORE TAKING MEALS.IN TYPE -2, PANCREAS IS WORKING PARTIALLY AS ALPHA CELLS ARE SECRETING INSULIN LESS THAN REQUIRED AND THAT CAN BE COMPENSATED BY TAKING TABLETS.
