Thank you very much for your first sentence. Are there any links you would reommend to better understand the process? I did a paper on "functional hypoglycemia" many years ago, so I am not starting at square one. However, I find good info (like your first sentence) tends to be in short supply.

I'm afraid not (and to clarify the first sentence, the 3 are "bonded" to a red blood cell).

Sometimes an article in a journal about beta cells or diabetic metabolism will have a quick overview, but it's usually fairly technical.

Thank you. I will keep your remarks in mind. Though my first thought is to wonder how that relates to the inflammation component, which is a known factor in both my condition and diabetes generally. I need to think on it.
