Diito. Plus my lipids have returned to normal as has my blood pressure
(OK I also take medications), my peripheral neuropathy has mostly gone
away, I only have to piss once per night, and I lost the weight I;d
put on

thanks to the kind folks here

BUT

I can throw all this away just by eating a Healthy Wholegrain
breakfast with orange juice, let alone anything worse

BACKGROUND: This report summarizes our 15-year experience with
duodenal switch (DS) as a primary procedure on 1,423 patients from
1992 to 2005. METHODS: Within the last 2 years, follow-up of these
patients, including clinical biochemistry evaluation by us or by their
local physician is 97%. RESULTS: Survival rate was 92% after DS. The
risk of death (Excess Hazard Ratio (EHR)) was 1.2, almost that of the
general population. After a mean of 7.3 years (range 2-15), 92% of
patients with an initial BMI < or = 50 kg/m2 obtained a BMI < 35 and
83% of those with an initial BMI > 50 obtained a BMI < 40. Diabetes
was cured (i.e. medication was discontinued) in 92% and medication
decreased in the others. The use of the CPAP apparatus was
discontinued in 90%, medication for asthma was decreased in 88%, and
the prevalence of a cardiac risk index > 5 was decreased by 86%.
Patients' satisfaction in regard to weight loss was graded 3.6 on a
basis of 5, and 95% of patients were satisfied with the overall
results. Operative mortality was 1% which is comparable with gastric
bypass surgery. The need for revision for malnutrition was rare (0.7%)
and total reversal was exceptional (0.2%). Failure to lose > 25% of
initial excess weight was 1.3%. Revision for failure to lose
sufficient weight was needed in only 1.5%. Severe anemia, deficiency
in vitamins or bone damage were exceptional, easily treatable,
preventable and no permanent damage was documented. CONCLUSION: In the
long-term, DS was very efficient in terms of cure rate for morbid
obesity and its comorbidities. In terms of risk/benefit, DS was very
sucessful with an appropriate system of follow-up.

In our collective clinical experience, similar results are seen for
type-2 diabetics that lose their VAT (black fat) by simply choosing to
eat less, down to the right amount:

Here is a simple parable given in hopes of promoting much greater
understanding:

http://HeartMDPhD.com/Parable

Life in industrial countries is essentially life in feed lots.

May dear neighbors, friends, and brethren have a blessedly wonderful
2008th year since the birth of our LORD Jesus Christ as the Son of
Man ...

... by being hungrier:

http://TruthRUS.org/KnowingGOD

Hunger is wonderful:

http://HeartMDPhD.com/Hunger

It's how we know what GOD wants, which is what is good.

Yes, hunger is our knowledge of good versus evil that Adam and Eve
paid for with their and our immortal lives.

Those who suffer from the powerful delusion predicted by the prophecy
of 2 Thessalonians 2:9-11 would deny this and perish ( gone !!! )
forever ...

Be hungry... be healthy... be hungrier... be blessed:

"Blessed are you who hunger NOW...

... for you will be satisfied." -- LORD Jesus Christ (Luke 6:21)

Amen.

Thanks,everyone. I am a bit concerned at how quickly my numbers spiked
this last year. To me, spiked BG,doubled insulin and kidney infections
tell my my diabetes is worsening. These kidney infections are driving
me crazy. I am,to be honest,getting a little scared. We lost a family
member to diabetes many years ago. She was Type 1 and totally rebelled
during her teenage year,eating what she wanted and not controlling her
BG. We lost her at age 26.
Fact is,the only thing I can do is control my BG for the rest of my
life.

Helen, it "ain't" that simple.  As you read there is a touchy game
with diabetes.  Just when you start to feel good about yourself all
hell can break lose.

We do the best we can with what we have and continue to learn.

We can never let down.

The ongoing careful living is necessary for your whole life.

When another illness is acquired, the diabetes will add to
the problem.

As a long term diabetic I have to be very careful to
reduce exposure to other problems.  I have learned to
walk away from hassles and to Relax.

I spent most of my life fighting the world and was successful.  What
did I end up with?

Just accept you problem and deal with it as best you can.  Above
all, learn to ignore the troublemakers and RELAX.

Cure seems to me to be a con job.
