lisarene 0 Posted March 19, 2022 Who is deiabetic and after surgery how soon u see a different in your blood sugars Sent from my SM-G960U using BariatricPal mobile appI was told by my surgeon to stop all my diabetic medications when I started the 2 week diet before the surgery. My primary care physician said to see him 2 weeks after surgery. I never went back on my diabetic medication. My numbers run from 96 to 120. I am not a diabetic anymore. Hope this helps!Sent from my SM-T227U using BariatricPal mobile app Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ClareLynn 153 Posted March 19, 2022 I was taken off metformin but honestly I wish I could be back on it. I eat about 400-600 calories a day and my blood sugar runs higher than it should most of the day. I still use insulin, just bolus now when previous I was on both basal and bolus. My A1c is lower but again that’s due to food quantity. I’ve hit these same numbers before when my eating disorder was active. 🤷♀️ I have the same insulin sensitivity and carb ratios as before the surgery. So if I actually ate any carbs, I need insulin. Also when I had my second surgery to remove my gallbladder my blood sugar was very high for days. Basically everything is the same as it was before. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

summerseeker 2,236 Posted March 20, 2022 I was told I was Diabetic in the June before November Surgery. I said I would hold off taking medication for it until I had blood tests 3 months after my surgery. I am no longer Diabetic. I feel so much more energised.

SkinnyMingo1408 357 Posted August 10, 2022 I was diabetic controlled by Metformin pre- surgery. I stopped taking my Metformin when I started my pre- surgery diet. I'm 9 weeks post op and haven't had to go back on it. I feel good and have good energy. I've lost 63lbs so far. 1 summerseeker reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
