LuluVSG2015 3 Posted April 9, 2015 I'm diabetic. In the year before surgery I dropped my a1c from 8.9 to 5.5. Perfect! But still had high fasting numbers and if I ate carbs my numbers would jump. I'm happy to report that since surgery my numbers have been fantastic! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Martene81 383 Posted April 9, 2015 This is awsome! I'm diabetic as well and trying to decide between RNY and VSG. Because I diebetes everyone is suggesting RNY but if I can eliminate my diabetes issues with VSG than I definitely want to consider it. Good for you! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LuluVSG2015 3 Posted April 10, 2015 I struggled with that as well. I was told rny would reverse the diabetes in hours (in most cases) and that I could reverse it with the sleeve but it would take a while and come through weight loss. I decided I was ok with it taking a little while, as the rny just scares me too much! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
