I am an Insulin Dependent type 2 Diabetic. I have had trouble finding information on Sleeve success with patients like me. I had the Sleeve surgery on 7/5, so it is very early stage, but i am curious to find other insulin dependent Sleevers like me to hear what their experiences have been like. Please note, I am not one of those Diabetics who will get to go off their meds. I do not produce any insulin, and have been on an insulin pump for 5 years. I also gained 60 lbs when I started insulin therapy, which is the main reason why I had Bariatric Surgery. Weight loss with insulin has been virtually impossible. Am now hoping and praying Sleeve will work.
