Most of the bariatric group awaiting bypass have had a band and it never worked. Their success rate is poo. Definitely no use for reversal.
I know I've ploughed through heaps of statistics lately.
Bypass only op for maximum reversal chance. For long term diabetics like me.
Reversal doesn't come very easy to a portion of diabetics.
The bypass isn't advertised as a type2 cure but has very high percentage of longterm reversal, in prediabetics and newly diagnosed type2s too.
If I'm to do it I have to try on a low carb, low cal and stomach/intestine reduction. Longterm is the key.
Maintenance is the hardest part, for life.
I need all the help I can get. I'm just soooo thankful I can get the help. I feel very very fortunate.
Thank god the nhs has options to offer everyone.
