I'm Cured!

I saw my endocrinologist today and she pronounced me CURED of my type 2 diabetes as a result of my sleeve surgery!

My A1C was 8.1 last fall. I had my surgery Dec. 18. My A1C today (Jan. 31) was 6.5. I have not needed any insulin or Metformin since my surgery. For this reason, my doctor said she considers me cured.

The relief is overwhelming! :)

    My PCP says that my diabetes is in remission and it makes me so happy. I still watch what I eat and enjoy every minute of it. CONGRATS.

    Congrats! Mine is in remission, too, and I couldn't be happier. It was the big medical motivator for me to have the surgery and I am so pleased that it worked for me.

    It's just one more way the sleeve will improve your life. :)

    I have an appointment with my primary care doctor and labs today and I am hoping she will be taking me off Metformin as well!
