You need to know “what” you’re treating:
• Type 1• Absolute Insulin
Deficiency• Treated with insulin• Average age 14-40 at
onset • Typically lean body• Genetically set up• <10% of people with
diabetes
• Pills never worked
• Insulin added quickly
• Ketones in urine or DKA
Before Insulin and After
What is Type 2 Diabetes?
• Defined by a Complex metabolic disorder……
(Both Insulin resistance and deficiency) Include the social, behavioral and
environmental risk factors unmasking the effects of genetic susceptibility.
i.e. it’s complex
You need to know “what” you’re treating:
• Type 2• Relative Insulin Deficiency• Insulin Resistance• Excess sugar from liver• Average age 30-50• Typically heavy• Genetically set up ”survivor” • 90% of people with diabetes
@ Dx: 50% less insulin produced
High BP High Trigs/ High LDL/ Low HDL

Ooodals of meds- where do we start? ADA Says:
• At diagnosis:• Lifestyle therapy (1-800-DIABETES ED) and Metformin
– If A1c not under 7%:• Add either sulfonylurea or insulin
– But not glyburide or chlorpropamide
– Then intensify insulin therapy• Continue metformin- IT HELPS!!!! ITS CHEAP!!!
WEIGHTLOSS!! • Drop SU once using intensified insulin regimen
ADA Treatment Algorithm
• “Less Well-Validated therapies”(i.e. last ditch effort before insulin)– We can’t prove longterm benefit with these meds– TZDs (Actos, Avandia) – Incretins
• No hypoglycemia• No weight gain, but no weight loss• Similar potency to SU; not more• Expensive

“Bad diabetes” is the kind where you take insulin
Hog Wash...• Insulin is not the enemy,
HIGH BLOOD SUGAR is!• Over time, many people
with diabetes need insulin because the pancreas “poops out.”
• Can’t “squirt it out?” Gotta “squirt it in.”
• “Good diabetes” is CONTROLLED diabetes, regardless of the treatment.
Insulin is not the bad guy
• Insulin: “Use Early and Often”• Physiologic timing pattern of normal insulin• Basal-bolus regimens:
– Education required– Allows flexibility
• Consider Co-management with Endocrinology and with Diabetes Education Program
The “5 Rights” of Insulin Therapy
• The Right insulin• Rapid acting, long acting?
• At the Right time• Where is insulin needed? Food? Background?
• In the Right amount• Carb coverage/ Premeal
adjustment/Background• With the Right device
• Short Needles, Small syringes, Pens, Pumps• For the Right to live life well with diabetes
Insulin Management of Diabetes
Acanthosis Nigricans (AN)Cause- High insulin levels in bloodstream
Cure- Decrease Insulin Levels in Blood
Feelings and Diabetes Some common myths:
Diabetes destroyed my plans and dreams.
Asking for help is a sign of weakness.
I should be able to take diabetes in stride.
I should hide my diabetes from others.
The truth: People with diabetes have
depression almost twice as often as people without.
People want to help- ask!!
Spotting Depression1. Increase in readmissions2. Not sleeping/sleeping too much3. Appetite changes4. Guilt statements, hopeless statements5. Suicidal thoughts/statements6. Drug/alcohol use7. Less family/friends visiting when they are in the hospital8. Not performing ADLs, not picking up meds at pharmacy, missing
appointments 9. No mention of friends, family, hobbies10. Recent bad news- lost a job, lost a loved one, lost more of their health 11. Use a depression tool/or ASK THEM. "This is a hard disease. It takes a lot of work. You have had it a long
time. Does it get you down?"
Eating Disorders & Diabetes
Diabulemia- a condition when insulin dosing is inadequate for the purpose of losing weight
-Food Hoarding-Lack of Pleasure in eating food
