Many: Insulin resistance usually comes along or preceeds the metabolic syndrome which comes with low hdl(good cholesterol) and high triglecerides, after some time your resistance increases and you might develop type 2 diabetes. The changes in your circulation(small vessels) will cause hardening and hypertension to be followed by protein in your urine and high blod pressure.
