Hi, Was wondering if your surgeon had a requirement for your HbA1C before surgery. I have type I and my blood sugars have not been great due to insulin resistance. Hope this doesnt make me ineligible for surgery. anyone have any experience with this?

My surgeon required my A1C to be 7.2. It was actually 8.2 before surgery but he went ahead with it anyway.

Mine didn't mention anything, but mine was 7.0

Mine had to be below an 8.0 ...it was a 7.6 at time of surgery. Just sent in a home test to the lab....with my sugars lately, hoping to have a lower number now that I've lost some weight with the preop diet and with the band!
