Yes you can I am in the process of getting the RnY gastric bypass surgery. I was told of the risks and complications before hand and have elected to go through with the surgery any way. There are no real long term trials though to know what the long term effects of medication absorption is though. But to answer the question YES.

The International Diabetes Federation has recommended that gastric bypass surgery be used as a treatment for people with type 2 diabetes. The link between gastric bypass surgery and diabetes has long been known but only gained accreditation early in 2011 as a specific treatment. Benefits begin in the hospital before a patient even begins to start losing weight. The key to reversal of type 2 diabetes appears to be increased production of incretins in the stomach immediately after surgery. These hormones stimulate the pancreas to create more insulin and thus keep blood sugar under control.

Morbidly obese patients who are diabetic may benefit from gastric bypass weight loss surgery. Gastric bypass has been proven to help most patients loose a large amount of weight very quickly. As weight drops off, blood sugar levels are frequently reduced as well. Diabetic patients who undergo gastric bypass surgery are sometimes able to have their diabetes medication amounts reduced before they even leave the hospital. Some patients have lost so much weight following the surgery that their diabetes is completely reversed. Gastric bypass carries significant risk of complications and side effects and should only be performed in extreme cases.
