"Thanks for your prompt input. I am Type 2 on insulin. Yes, I am on Prevacid for the reflux I take them before bed as I can sleep better without the fear of reflux.. Lettuce for me is out period. I break out in sores... too hard to digest."

"I had some mild gastroparesis and small meals are very much the key to treating it, also easier to digest foods. Eat slowly and listen to your body, when it is telling you its full, listen. Also Reglan helps many who have gastroparesis, helps with…"

Oh my goodness Cheryl....so sorry to hear about that. You would think that the stapling, which lends to smaller portions, would have a desirable effect and REDUCE your blood sugars! Nothing is simple, is it? I gather you have discussed this at length with your doctor.
What about a dietitian? Please pray for discernment. This is to much for you alone.
Keep me posted, OK......and drop by anytime to chew the fat :)
