Sleeved 29 July. 15 years type 2 Diabetic. Stopped all meds since surgery and blood sugar levels are reasonable (I check several times daily). Am still on liquid diet so I hope I still don't need the meds when I hopefully move on to next nutritional stage. Happy to be off my meds.

Thanks to all for the good wishes. Got home yesterday. Today much better. BS have been great 75 to 90. All meds are on hold for now. Getting along by myself on some things. First night was tough second day better still not great. In hospital i was not able to drink. My appetite was not there and the taste of Water was not appealing to me. T oday i am able to drink my Protein shake and Jello pudding popsicles so much better.

Diabetes is considered as chronic disease, which affects the path our body manages glucose (sugar) in blood. Diabetes is of two types i.e. Type 1 and Type 2, however, when we talk about type2 diabetes it symptoms appear slowly like increase thirst, high urinating, eventual weight loss, blurry eyesight etc. Normally a blood test performed in pathology through the help of tools present at ilexmedical.com confirms whether you have diabetes or not. Normally people can control type 2 diabetes by eating healthy, regular blood glucose testing, doing physical exercise and take diabetes medicines properly.

      Two months out from hiatal hernia repair.  Surgeon said to expect a lot more flatulence...something about the 'air' no longer being able to 'burp' out so comes out the other end.  That is my experience but have no understanding of why that swallowed air cannot be 'burped'. ???

        As I understand it since your stomach is smaller and not completely resting against your diaphragm anymore you no longer have the ability to "push" burps out as well. Plus, since its smaller and we don't digest slower the trapped air moves a lot quicker out of the stomach so its no longer available to burp out. Hence the other option for removal.

        Me too girl!! Are you in the full liquid diet right now? It’s sooooo hard!

      2. LadyVeteran1

        Not yet. I was told I only have to do 24 hours of a liquid diet. But I have my pre-op tomorrow so I’m going to confirm if I need to do longer.

        Your so close now! It's gonna be great :) Wishing you a speedy recovery and looking forward to seeing how it goes!

      Down 33 lbs and slightly stalled, but I'm gonna reevaluate and push through. I started back to work last week after 2 years of being disabled due to mental health as well as my weight. It's a great job and I'm just so happy to have this opportunity at a second chance at life. Hope everyone is having their best journey ❤️ Together, we got this!
