When should I be worried about unintentional weight loss?

Thank you for your question. First of all, congrats on improving your diabetic control! Dropping your Hba1c from 9% to 5. 9% is an amazing conscientious effort on your part. 1. What I could not understand is that, how come my blood sugar was well control (5. 9%) but yet there is a deterioration in my eye condition?

Intragastric balloon is an effective option for weight management especially if diet and exercise alone does not work well. It involves a balloon being inserted into the stomach after a gastroscopy. The concept is simple. The balloon being in the stomach fills up space and makes the person constantly feel full. This will send signals to the brain indicating that there is no need to consume any more food. With this reduced food intake, the number of calories absorbed in the body is less. Therefore, the raw weight will decrease.
