ProudGrammy 8,322 Posted June 9, 2012 I am preop right now but hope to be able to reverse my diabetes postop. Have you been able to improve your numbers or reverse your diabetes? Any tips? awesome62 I was under the impression that after i was sleeved, i would almost immediately be rid of my diabetes. I was always under control w/my meds, but was hoping to be off of meds. my WLS was 12/15/11 - hospital took me off my meds til i saw my PHP, he told me too to stay off my meds. i was thinking terrific. Now after some readings of 130,140 he's thinking he should put me on alittle bit of meds. I will be having my HCG soon, so we will see. But remember, we will always be considered diabetic. Some people have better luck though - maybe you'll be one of them best kathy 1 JustSayMoe reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
awesome62 3 Posted June 9, 2012 Thanks...my fingers are crossed. Unfortunately it is not a guarantee and sometimes doesn't happen right away. I'm hoping I reverse, but won't be surprised if I'm not. My levels have always been high until recently. Now I have lows which I think are a result of a new med and the liquid diet. You are right we will always be considered diabetic even if our levels are under control. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
