lonestar5212 0 Posted October 18, 2007 I am at the very beginning of this process. I have met with a surgeon and I have attended a seminar. I have also been fortunate enough to find this site. It is so important to us newbies to have this information, so I thank all of you so much. My insurance company will pay for the procedure after I jump through a few hoops for three months. Not bad at all. My question I have is regarding my diabetes and hypoglycemia. I eat 45 carbs a meal to keep my blood sugar both down and up. If I don't, my blood sugar drops way down and I get pretty sick with the shakes etc. Is this going to be a problem for me to manage after surgery? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
