thread_title: Diabetes statistics

message: Perhaps there should be a section added discussing the notable silence from the ADA on the 99% long-term remission/cure rate that the BPD-DS surgery (known as the Duodenal Switch) has on type 2 diabetes?  In addition, gastric bypass surgery has demonstrated a roughly 50-60% long-term remission rate for type 2 diabetes.  One would think the ADA would be screaming from every rooftop to let people know about these findings, but nary a word.  Why isn't it plastered all over their website?  Where is the ADA's educational campaign to get out the word about surgical cures -- to save lives, extend lifespan, and improve quality of life for those afflicted with type 2 diabetes?  Why is it that only a pharmaceutical industry pill can be considered a "real" cure for adult-onset diabetes?  It is highly doubtful that any prescription drug in the next century will come remotely close to the across-the-board resolution of diabesity-related health problems that these two bariatric surgeries currently deliver, yet everyone is supposed to keep waiting and hoping for the impossible?  Could it be that the ADA doesn't want anything to potentially encroach on their turf or impede their fundraising -- what is the reason?  In any case, it would seem relevant to note in the article how the ADA has been notably silent on these (pretty stunning) findings, to the point that the public at large doesn't even know about the existence of surgical options.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by Bdmwiki (talk • contribs) 19:52, 16 December 2013 (UTC)
