Guest guest Posted July 9, 2000 Report Share Posted July 9, 2000 Betty, I don't understand why you have to wait for your sugars to come down? I have not had any of my diabetic meds since surgery. Janet Armour had really high blood sugars and she had the surgery. just asking Trisha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2000 Report Share Posted July 9, 2000 Hey, you're almost the *exact* size I was starting out *and* I had high blood sugar. This surgery *cures* the problem with high blood sugar and plenty of us have had diabetes going into it. I couldn't take any of the meds for diabetes, either, because I'm insulin resistant and the drugs like glucophage and glucatrol made me gain weight! @#$!! Dr. Rutledge operates on people with high blood sugar all the time. Maybe you should ask him what he thinks about waiting around? Also, you can get your blood sugar down in a week eating nothing but protein (Adkins diet), no carbs, no sugars (including the sucrose sugars). BEST WISHES TO YOU!!!

Guest guest Posted July 9, 2000 Report Share Posted July 9, 2000 Ah, shucks, Betty - I thought I was the old lady of the group - I will be 56 next month - 5'2 " - BMI 47. Let's get our blood sugar down and maybe we can both go in October - I would like to go about first week. Joanne in Ohio bettyjohn@... wrote: > What wonderful meaning(s) this has.
