Feb. 13 here! I'm so excited and nervous at the same time but this is my valentines day gift to myself! Good luck everyone!

Thank you both!!!!

Tomorrow is my last appointment with my nutritionist!!! I have done my psych and endoscopy, blood work and pcp letter so hopefully I can schedule soon!!! I'm having the surgery at NYU hospital in NYC. Now that it's getting closer I'm getting nervous and excited!! Tomorrow I speak to the surgeon as well what questions should I be asking at this point? Help please!

I have my last appointment on December 30 and then submitting to insurance. I want to be as successful as possible with this surgery and I would like someone who has been through it to help give me any pointers. Thanks in advance!

Thanks! I was just thinking do I need to shave my legs LOL!

Thank you! ☺️ i needed to be reassured

I'm getting nervous for the endoscopy and the psych visit tomorrow! I hope everything turns out well

Sorry just saw the typo! I'm type 2 diabetic and my doctor is unsure what meds I should/ shouldn't take before the procedure. I take both short: long acting insulin plus 1000mg of metformin 2x a day

Has anyone had the endoscopy done and is diabetic? My doctor is unsure of what ends I can take it not before the procedure.

I Have oxford freedom and next month is my last month of the 6 month supervised doctor visits. I will have everything else completed by then (psych test, upper GI endoscopy and bloodwork). I am having my surgery at NYU hospital. How long till approval?

Bronx here! Having my surgery at NYU. Hoping for a February date as well.

I just scheduled my psych eval and received forms to fill out before I go. Very overwhelmed right now and afraid to answer the questions "wrong"

Lucky you! It looks like January for me because of my insurance and the prereqs. I don't know how I'm going to take the time of in January. I know it's going to affect the classroom. I also don't want to wait or not be at work 100%, as you know it's not a desk job. We have to be up and about and I don't want to hurt myself.

How long were you diabetic

Yay for u!!!! I hope I hear that one day. I've been diabetic since I was 23. I'm 31 now so I don't know if it can be cured forever but I can hope. My endo switch me to insulin about a year ago plus pills because my hubby and I wanted to have a baby to no avail. I can't wait to have my surgery maybe I can get rid of this disease.

I hope so! I'm looking forward to getting sleeved to be off my medication. Is there a chance if the diabetes coming back later in life?

What! Why? I thought it would be gone for good

I'm glad everyone's medication was reduced or gone! Makes me hopeful!

Anyone with diabetes who got sleeved how has your diabetes been? Still on meds or not and how Long did it take to get off them
