DGS1963 Have you ever considered having it in Monroe? Dr. Sartor is very very good.

West Monroe here. I have been looking for others in this area for a while. Do you know of any support groups around here or do you ever get together to chat with each other about things? Theresa

Hi, I am a patient of Dr. Sartor also. Banded April 22nd. How are you doing with your loss? I have lost 32 lbs. but I have stopped. I am going for my third fill on Monday. Theresa

I am newly banded, last Tuesday to be exact. Ever since I came home from surgery my blood sugars have been high. Like up to 380. Called endo and she had me come in. Well apparently I was not taking the correct insulin. Before surgery I was on Regular insuline U500. Since the surgery she has me in Regular insulin U100. I have not been under 200 yet. I am eating nothing, my carbs are below 50 per day, no sugars, no fats. Complete liquid stage of the diet. I have dropped from the over 300's down to the 200's, but what gives. Why wont my sugars go down to normal?

Thanks Susan, I am sure that is what the problem is, but how long does out bodies take to recover from surgery trauma?
