Whats a overactive pancreas?!
Question: Whats a overactive pancreas?
Answers:
Most of the time when your blood sugar level drops too low, the pancreas stops making insulin until your blood sugar returns to normal. Tumors of the pancreas that produce too much insulin are called insulinomas. Insulinomas keep making insulin, even when your blood sugar drops too low.
High blood insulin levels cause low blood sugar levels (hypoglycemia).
Insulinomas are rare tumors. They usually occur as single, small tumors in adults.
They are also very rare in children. Most children with high blood insulin levels have many areas of overactive insulin-releasing cells in the pancreas, instead of a single tumor. More than 90% of insulinomas are non-cancerous (benign) tumors.
