No insulin

I had my surgery January 2003. I have not had any insulin since surgery. In fact I have occasional low blood sugars. My fasting sugar is normal and my 3 month average is normal with a Ghb of 5.8. My physician said the diabetes is "cured." I am still checking my sugar occasionally, but I will believe the "cure "maybe one day.

Congratulations Robbie, that is my goal, no more shots. Keep up the good work. Nancy

are you type one or type two diabetic??? and if you are type 1 how long have you been diabetic?? I just had my surgery on oct 4th and have been type one for 26 yrs.and after reading some of the post i am wondering if i should have done it at all. Please give me some encouragement. Thanks Kelli Hales

Kelli, Don't give up! I have type 1 diabetes and had gastric bypass back in May. It does get better! E-mail me if you want to talk Michelle
