leesee0702 1 Posted March 30, 2016 Hi all. I had surgery in January and my sugars are still high. My doc adjusted my meds a little bit but hasn't taken me off them totally yet. Is anyone else having high sugar issues? My thyroid is off too which may be causing my stall. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
animallover1247 249 Posted March 30, 2016 Yes, having the same issue. I am off of my fast acting insulin and my Trulicity but I am still having to take my Lantus insulin. I wouldn't say my sugars are extremely high, they are running around 150 or 160 with taking the insulin. I know..it's a bummer still having to be on insulin after surgery. I was hoping this would not be the case for me, Hoping once I lose more weight I can be freed from it but my endo said no promises.... I'm six weeks out and in my second stall.

amazon 579 Posted March 30, 2016 I was able to come off my diabetes meds immediately after surgery (metformin). My thyroid med actually had to be increased, which seemed odd to me. Then when I got close to goal, it stabilized and had to be lowered to what was in tune with my weight. I guess what crap was in my fat stores was making a difference. It finally leveled out after about 16 months. I did have many stalls. I was a "step" loser. Lose for a week or so, then stall for 2 or 3 weeks. Would be frustrating - just had to trust the program.
