    Endoscopy And Diabetes

    Sorry just saw the typo! I'm type 2 diabetic and my doctor is unsure what meds I should/ shouldn't take before the procedure. I take both short: long acting insulin plus 1000mg of metformin 2x a day
  9. Has anyone had the endoscopy done and is diabetic? My doctor is unsure of what ends I can take it not before the procedure.
  10. I Have oxford freedom and next month is my last month of the 6 month supervised doctor visits. I will have everything else completed by then (psych test, upper GI endoscopy and bloodwork). I am having my surgery at NYU hospital. How long till approval?
  11. I just scheduled my psych eval and received forms to fill out before I go. Very overwhelmed right now and afraid to answer the questions "wrong"

    Teachers Supporting Sleeved Teachers

    Lucky you! It looks like January for me because of my insurance and the prereqs. I don't know how I'm going to take the time of in January. I know it's going to affect the classroom. I also don't want to wait or not be at work 100%, as you know it's not a desk job. We have to be up and about and I don't want to hurt myself.

    Diabetics who got sleeved....

    Yay for u!!!! I hope I hear that one day. I've been diabetic since I was 23. I'm 31 now so I don't know if it can be cured forever but I can hope. My endo switch me to insulin about a year ago plus pills because my hubby and I wanted to have a baby to no avail. I can't wait to have my surgery maybe I can get rid of this disease.
