Hi fellow readers

I have just found this site. I was diagnosed with type 2 diabetes in Feb.07. I am currently on the waiting list for bariatric surgery in Moncton N.B. That waiting list is long. Anybody else waiting?

I'm not waiting, however I would like to welcome you to the forums. I think you'll find that there are some here that are dead set against the surgery, and some that are for it, and possibly some that have had it.

I hope your sugars are doing well in the meantime. How's your thyroid function?

Regards,
