Good news EVERYONE, I am not banded yet but, hope to be soon. I have had diabetes for 19 years and am on 4 different meds for it. My last AIC was almost 12. I am praying this will help me get my AIC down.My Dr does not guarantee it though because I have been a diabetic so long. How long have you had diabetes, the ones that are off meds?Good Luck to everyone.
