On which type of Diabetes Metabolic Surgery works on? - Dr. Tulip

We all know that once a diabetic, is always a diabetic. But now we have something called as metabolic surgery, by which one can be totally free form diabetes, means you can stop your diabetic medication and your sugars can be in normal limits, you don’t need to take any diabetic medication or you need not take any insulin, but is this surgery helpful for all types of diabetics? No, we need to be a little careful and a little choosy about this. This surgery is helpful for Type 2 diabetics. Type 2 diabetics are those who develop diabetes after the age of 30, they do have a family history, like their parents grandparents would have had diabetes. But those people who develop diabetes in childhood or in their teens, these are most likely to be Type 1 diabetics, wherein the body is not secreting any insulin. The pancreas is not having any insulin to secrete, wherein the metabolic surgery will not help. Now is any Type 2 diabetics eligible for this surgery. Yes, but we also need to see the amount of pancreatic reserve that is present in that patient, for example if the patient is suffering from diabetes for 5 to 6 years then their reserve will be much better. But if they are suffering from diabetes form 15 to 20 years, then their reserve will be very less and hence the results may not very good. But as l said and done, all the results will be definitely better. Now how do we check the pancreatic reserve? There is a blood tests which is called as the c-peptide. When we assess this value, if it is more than 1, then it mean that the pancreas has a good reserve and the results will be very good. Now how early do we expect the person to be free from diabetes after the surgery even as early as 24 hours after the surgery, the person can be free from diabetes. In some cases where the pancreatic reserve is not very good, then the person might have to take one oral hypoglycaemic, maybe for a month or two and then the person can get totally out of diabetes.
