Should not be: A problem with good medical personnel, but if you can improve your glucose control between then and now, every bit of improvement will help lower your risks. After your procedure, work to get your sugars in better control long term as well. Good luck.

No: However, the fact that you diabetes is not very well controlled is a concern for you. Talk to your physician about how to better control your sugars.
