What was your sugar like after surgery? Since getting home I range from 85-114. No insulin or metformin. Does it get lower over time? I’m really hoping I stop getting readings over 100 (unless I’ve just eaten).

I had surgery 6/20/18. My bs lvl sits generally around 90-100 all the time.

If I eat ofc depends on carbs or sugar I still have the spike up to upper 100”s. Then after 1-2 hrs generally speaking a hour or so, I drop back to 90-100 range.

This is a normal effect even for non diabetics.

I can't figure out the American measurements but I had a checkup with full bloods three wks after my surgery and I had a perfectly normal workup. I'm averaging 5.2 for my Hb1ac which is a normal person's and my morning blood sugars are anywhere between 4.3 and 5.5 which is fantabulous. I'm off all diabetes meds now and my endo is planning to discharge me back to my GP it's so good.

      I changed my profile image to a molecule of protein. Why? Because I am certain that it saved my life.

      Two years out. Lost 120 , regained 5 lbs. Recently has a bout of Norovirus, lost 7 pounds in two days. Now my stomach feels like it did right after my surgery. Sore, sensitive to even water.  Anyone out there have a similar experience?

      April Surgery
      Am I the only struggling to get weight down. I started with weight of 297 and now im 280 but seem to not lose more weight. My nutrtionist told me not to worry about the pounds because I might still be losing inches. However, I do not really see much of a difference is this happen to any of you, if so any tips?
      Thanks

      Well recovering from gallbladder removal was a lot like recovering from the modified duodenal switch surgery, twice in 4 months yay 🥳😭. I'm having to battle cravings for everything i shouldn't have, on top of trying to figure out what happens after i eat something. Sigh, let me fast forward a couple of months when everyday isn't a constant battle and i can function like a normal person again! 😞
