You are very unusual. Do you use insulin? Is your blood sugar very high? Obesity is associated with diabetes but observational research is the lowest and most unreliable form of research. Conversely weight loss is associated as becoming more insulin sensitive. On the other hand your pancreas may be in some sort of distress preventing normal insulin production. The doctors should have fully informed you on what condition you are really in. It could be serious or nothing at all.
“You are very unusual.”
I don’t think so. The only type 2, like myself, got it later in life, over age 35 which is 10 years sooner than the CDC says it should hit. But let’s face it, 98.6 is not everyone’s temp, either.
It has been noted that besides the obvious problems like obesity, there are some other factors that come into play.
“No matter how thin or fit you are, you can still get diabetes. About 10%-15% of people with type II diabetes are at a healthy weight, a condition called lean diabetes. Even if you do not have visible fat, you may have visceral fat, which is fat that grows around your organs. Physical inactivity and certain health problems such as high blood pressure affect your chances of developing type 2 diabetes. But they also fall back on to the family history thing.”

The above is a very interesting article but the main problem with diabetes is that it effects other things in the body that can cause worse problem. Thank you for asking. They are still practicing medicine.
