You have mentioned you are 70. I presume you have type 2 diabetes. Here the problem is not only the amount of insulin, but also resistance of different organs to insulin that cannot be modified by pancreas transplant which is more feasible and even curative in type 1 diabetes. So in my opinion pancreatic transplant is not recommended for you.type diabetes
