A member asked:
Is it possible for diabetes to ever go into remission?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Possible but rare: Hi. Type 1 can go into a "honeymoon phase", almost like a brief remission. Type 2 can go into remission, but it's hard in western society where unhealthy lifestyle is king. So, yes, some type 2's with hard work, self control, and diligence can go into remission, but it's rare, and such remissions would almost never be durable.
