Mislocalised calcium channel causes insulin secretion defect in diabetes.
After a meal the blood sugar rises . To counteract this and to make sugar available to the body, specialised cells in the pancreas get activated to secrete insulin. In people with diabetes, this mechanism fails, which leads to elevated blood sugar and a host of other diabetes related complications.

2.)
The hormones

Foods that are good/bad
Hiya, I've been reading a few articles about PCOS and the diets associated with them I wondered if anybody knows what sort of foods you should try and avoid if you have PCOS. Does it really make a difference if you miss out the starchy foods etc? I don't understand completely the whole insulin part

Is it advisable to use VICTOZA even when blood sugar is fully under control with insulin ?
The victoza, a GLP 1 analogue, liraglutide, is available in injection form. Is it better than insulin if you have associated cardiac problems ? Is it safe drug with minimum side effects ? Any experience or suggestion.

Is this all pcos related?
Can pcos cause sudden anxiety caused by excess oestrogens? 2 years ago I suddenly developed severe crippling anxiety and was put on antidepressants.

Diabetes double steroids for tax, 4, 5 and 6.
Chemo 4, tax 1...blood sugar too scary at times to monitor but with help from the district diabetes nurse who phones me daily on steriods and some extra tweeking on my part by adding another tablet, its worked just with some insulin as well. Some delays in sleep and reading at night through blurry eyes
