Type 2 with no insulin resistance
I've been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes because my (HbA1c) was 7.6 ,but then I got tested insulin resistance (Homa-IR) result was normal and insulin levels is also normal. How is it possible that I have type 2 diabetes while I don't have insulin resistance, and my pancreas is producing insulin ?
