raylene76 20 Posted August 31, 2015 I have fears of my upcoming surgery that I know are just fears and no, they won't stop me from having the surgery. I just would like to know from any Type 2 diabetics.....Did you have the surgery, lose weight and still have to take insulin shots? I guess part of me is afraid that I will have the surgery, not lose a lot of weight and still be on insulin shots all the time. I am on a TON of insulin each day that is barely keeping my blood sugar in control and am hoping the surgery helps at least to where I can only have to take oral meds. thanks for your answers!

mildredskeepers 2 Posted September 1, 2015 Hi! I was sleeved on August 26, 2015. I am a type 2 diabetic. I was taking Janumet two times daily and long acting insulin at bedtime. Since my surgery I have NOT taken any diabetes medication. I am still checking my sugar 4 times a day and they checked it multiple times in the hospital and it's all been good, under 120 every time. ????. Hoping to stop the finger sticks soon. Be positive! Hope this helped! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
