Mr. lybrate-user, Thanks for the query. As the things stand today, diabetes whether T1 or T2, has no cure. Both need to be treated for lifetime. Achieving strict blood glucose control is the only way of leading a healthy life for a diabetic person. This condition being a insulin deficiency disorder, one needs to either take insulin itself daily or take drugs that stimulate insulin secretion, plus those that reduce insulin resistance are to be taken for life time. There no CURE in the horizon at least for next few decades. Some pancreas transplants and growing pancreas (particularly Beta cells) by stem cells have been tried. But with very little success. Thanks.
