Diabetic surgery info!!!!

I was an insulin dependent type 2 diabetic.  I also had to take 2000 mg a day of metformin.  

After my RNY, I went into remission.  I have lost 186 pounds and no longer have to take any medications.  My last A1c was 4.9.

Just saw your reply here as I am also a type 2 diabetic on 2000 mg of metformin and insulin dependent ... am planning on RNY in Sept. and am so hoping it will at least put my diabetes in control to the point I don't have to be on insulin. Your response is very encouraging to me, as is the fact you lost 186 lbs in less than two years. Amazing! Congrats. I hope you are still doing so well!

I had a very long time with diabetes. it feels like a nightmare to me. But I was eating and reasonable treatment. I am very healthy. Urge you to really try and focus follow the doctor

Hello it would be really good to hear some advice and talk to people who understand how it feels. I had recently been diagnosed with RA. I was on hydroxychlorquine but been recommended to be on Methotrexate. I had pain in my feet everyday with the mornings being the worse. but when I am wearing orthofeet's shoes, at that time I dont have pain in my feet.
