Can not do my surgery because my sugar is too high :(



Recommended Posts

After me doing research on the glucose meds its ironic they have starch fillers an sugars. Which affect glucose numbers. I was wondering if you eat red meat an watch the lunchmeats. I also use a organic liguid cinammon suppliment instead of capsules bc of the filler issue. Just sharing. I still add a squirt of the liquid suppliment to my coffee every morning. It doesnt have strong fcinammon flavor its just the supplement. Keps glucose in chk..thought i would share..

I am not understanding why surgery is on hold bc of type 2 unless your numbers are really high. Thats the very reason why i was sent to have this done. I was insulin resistance an type 2..i hope things get rolling for you soon..

The explanation they gave me was that when your sugar levels are high, healing is more difficult after surgery... I've waited a long time for this so I guess I can wait a couple more months. I tested my sugars before Breakfast this am and they were 8.2...down from 13.1 less than 2 weeks ago. So I'm very happy with how the meds are helping things!!

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
