Isn't that wonderful about how diabetes goes away with gastric bypass surgery? I'm always happy to hear about that "plus" with it. I had a cousin who was a brittle diabetic. No matter how careful she was with food and exercise she never could get her sugar stablized and had to poke her fingers 4 times a day and then give herself the insulin shots. Awful.
I'm wondering when they'll start recommending a type of stomach surgery (not as drastic as bypass) to halt diabetes for all who have it, instead of insulin shots. That'd be great.
