So sorry to hear what you're going through - you must feel like there is no hope of getting the pain under control

What are you eating at the moment? Going Low Carb High Fat (LCHF) can bring dramatic improvements in blood sugar control very quickly and might be worth a go. Have a read of the low carb diet forum on here and the guide for beginners. If you can drop your numbers then the surgery can go ahead.

Good luck!
 
At 16 and 15 the older children can help no end I'm sure. Your priority is to get your A1c and pain down to an acceptable level. Reading your other posts it does appear you have a major issue with your control. No surgeon will do surgery on a patient with an A1cof 12% unless it's life or death. The highest I think is 9%
So you need to sort your insulin dosage out, if you are stuck then you need an urgent referral to the diabetes team at your hospital.
Very sorry you are in so much pain though.
