  1. I have had low blood sugar for many years. The best thing to do is to eat more Protein. The oj just keeps it coming back by putting too much sugar quickly back into your system and then causing the drop to happen again. So watch your fruit and dont drink juices at all. The only time you would do that is if you were so low you were about to have a seizure or coma etc. EAt or drink your protein.
  2. Thanks so much for your replies. I guess your'e right it is a crap shoot! What I hadnt said was the same dr had told me because i also have hyoglycemia he definitely wouldn't recommend a by-pass for fear it would become worse. So I have been depressed and confused as whether to take this chance or remain fat. If the reflux wouldnt be debilitating .I guess i am with you LIsa.
  3. Most Drs are saying not to do the sleeve if you already have a problem with reflux. I went to see my surgeon to ask about this and he said no problem! If there is a hiatal hernia he will just fix it. Now I am very confused by this answer because why arent other surgeoons doing this also? The latest studt i just read by Himpens (saw in Thinner Times website ) says people are getting reflux 3-6 yrs later. Anyone have any experience with this or suggestions
