I have had Type II Diabetes for close to 15 years....and had my open RNY on 2/7/01.....I have yet to "dump". And believe me....I've tested the boundaries. I wanted to know what it was like, I wanted that extra insurance policy that would help keep me on the straight and narrow...and I am one of the few who doesn't seem to dump no matter what I've tried. I'm done testing, I just assume I don't and am working on being as disciplined as I can so that I don't go crazy since I can get away with it! Also, I was on 3 oral meds for diabetes and am now medication free! Actually was down to one med when I left the hospital with a reduced dosage and then about 2 months later completely med free and my Hemoglobin A1C is down to 6.4 as of my last lab work. :) Vicki Hi Shelley,

believe me….I’ve tested the boundaries. I wanted to know what it was
like, I wanted that extra insurance policy that would help keep me on the
straight and narrow…and I am one of the few who doesn’t seem to dump no
matter what I’ve tried. I’m done testing, I just assume I don’t and am
working on being as disciplined as I can so that I don’t go crazy since I
can get away with it!
