insulin dependent
Delilah,
I am also type 2 and was on oral meds - they advised me prior to surgery that I would have to go on insulin for the 1st several weeks after surgery- they checked my sugar every 4 hours after surgery and sent me home with a sliding scale- within 5 weeks I was not taking ANY diabetes meds at all. This surgery was a miracle as far as my diabetes is concerned. Be sure to ask at your final pre-op visit if they want you to take your meds prior to coming in for surgery.
Good luck!!
Terri
