Kathleen Wilkinson I had pretty good control not the greatest my a1c was a 8.3 before surgery and I kept thinking like it's going to get better after and it has my a1c has dropped to a 7.3 it's easier to manage I definitely do not need tons of insulin like I was on I feel way better.
Also I had to get cleared by all my doctor's and my endocrinologist thought that I would do good after the surgery I mean it took a good 6 months before I was able to get it done and talking to all my doctor's too.
How did you know you were ready to have the surgery ? Were you well controlled before your surgery? Are you coping after it ?
