This is my first post but I have been reading post since the end of June. I am learning quite a bit through others experiences. I am in the process of having lap band surgery. My phyc appt. is tomorrow. All other appts. have been made, just waiting for my final Dr. appt to schedule surgery.

A little bit about myself, I have been diabetic for 10 years and as my meds increase so does my weight. At this point I am about 65 lbs. overweight. I have never had a weight problem before becoming diabetic, went back to pre pregancy weight with all 3 children. I hope having surgery helps my sugar levels and I am able to cut back on meds. and get my weight back in control.

Are there any diabetics who found improvement with their diabeties after surgery??

Wish me luck tomorrow.

hi, welcome to LBT. there are quite a few people who have had their diabetis helped post-op. i know Jack, one of the moderators, has had significant improvement.

good luck.

I am very excited about my journey it has been years in the coming. Good luck with your pregancy, Kids are great my baby just turned 16.
