  1. Type 2 diabetes

    calmspirit74 replied to shayshay85's topic in Weight Loss Surgery Success Stories
    We have almost the same story. I'm 5'9, 250. Surgery expected in early December. My last weight loss visit is in November. I also am a diabetic taking tanzium insulin, lantus insulin, metphormine, invokana, and amyral. Plus high blood pressure and sleep apnea. I've talk to 3 different doctors and was told that gastric bypass gets quicker results for reversing diabetes. When they do the bypass your food doesn't go thru the part of the stomach that triggers insulin production. My sister also had a bad case of type two diabetes. She had her bypass about five years ago. She was off of all her diabetic meds the day after her surgery. She wears a size zero now. Sent from my iPhone using the BariatricPal App
