It applies to teens and adults. 85% of the time after GASTRIC BYPASS within 3-10 days type II diabetics go into full remission. With sleeves 85% go into remission within 2-4 months. With bands it comes with weight loss. Edited December 30, 2008 by WASaBubbleButt Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
