- - - - Insulin too High
        
        BGL drops
        
        HYPOGLYCEMIA
        
        weakness, dizziness, rapid breathing, sweating
        
        confusion, hallucinations, seizures, coma, death
      - required for target cells to take up glucose
        
        brings BGL back down
      - absence of insulin (but raised BGL)
        
        cells bathed in glucose but it cannot enter = STARVE
      - Insulin too Low
        
        insufficient secretion or decreased sensitivity
        
        BGL elevated
        
        HYPERGLYCEMIA
- - - - Gycogen to glucose
        
        glycogen stored in cells breakdown into glucose to the go in blood and be available to fuel cells
        
        raises BGL in blood
