Hi, my partner is Type 1 and is considering having a gastric band fitted to aid with weight loss, does anyone on here have one, how do you control hypos etc with not eating a great deal? advise would be greatly received.

Hi rach,
Bumping your post up to see if anyone can help.
Might be worth posting on the Type 1 board.
 
Don't have a gastric band, so no expert, but if you can drink normally, hypos can be managed with say, fat coke? You often only need 1/3 of a can to raise blood sugar.

Really is one that he needs to discuss with his Dr though!
