Basically the difference is that Type I your body is no longer able to produce insulin. Type II means that your body is not using the insulin it produces properly, and eventually your body will not be able to produce enough insulin to keep your blood sugar at reasonable levels.

There is absolutely no coming back from Type I diabetes at the moment. But Type II should be reversible for anyone with both Type I & II.
