I decided to have the realize band after years of battling weight problems. I also decovered that I was diabetic 5 months prior to sugery. I also have sleep apnea. Granted I am 3 weeks post op but i can feel a difference in my sleep pattern. I also have been off my metformin since the day before surgery. I feel great. I still test my sugar 4 times a day, but that is for precaution. I have been doing good with my HbA1c which has not spiked and been under control since the surgery.
