Ladies, If you have diabetes please answer this post..did your A1C level hold you back from getting the operation? Everything was going smooth until my retarded family doctor left and a NEW PA took his place and she wants a A1C done and it will determen if she will give me clearance for the operation...I am so mad right know cause the doctor in St.Louis was A ok with everything and was hoping to get the operation in 3 wks or so...

Cool...So Congrats and keep me post on how the surgery went . I am hoping to get banded next month. I went the 12th and got my pysch eval done, seen the dietation, and the nurse and I have everything done but the pre op testing and the nurse said she will call with that info.

I was told by the nurse I would have to have a Pulmonary Function Test at Pre-Op testing..Has anyone has done that type of test and what kind of test is it?
-
I went and met with the nurse, dietation, and got pysch eval done today. I didn't have to start no diet just yet..They are hoping they will be able to preform the operation with in 4 wks. I will have to do a liq. diet for 1 wk before the operation. I am very happy and very glad things went will today. Dr. Follwell's nurse was very nice I really look forward in dealing with them for life. Soon as I find out the surgery date I will post it. :rolleyes2:

I am also a diabetic and I am in the process of getting the band, I am wanting so bad to get read of the diabetes I hate taking the medication and feeling tired and ect all the time. I have two small children and I am doing this operation for them and my self so I can be around longer to see them grow up and be able to do things with them. I gained weight my self after I got married and thats when I noticed the diabetes. So hopefully I can have a great out come like you..Congrats on the operation and diabetes.

Ya, I am really looking foward to the new start but a little scared also it is just hard to think about no more soda or bread for I really enjoy both. My husband is giving me support on this journey. I am hoping that the 12th will be the day I find out about the operation I am hoping to get it before my son starts school. So how bad is the operation and recovery? I had hernia surgery last year (belly button hernia) and girl I couldn't move for almost 2 wks. I will give those other broths and soups a try and keep me posted on new ones and I will do the same.
