Well, I did it. Just got the results of my latest A1C and it was 5.5. My last one was 5.8. I was so afraid that it went up but it actually went down a tiny bit. My cholesterol has gone down again as well.
I am so HAPPY!!!!

| | | I take Vytorin. My last readings were...
CHOLESTEROL 147, TRIGLYCERIDE 127, HDL 29, LDL 93.
Considering my CHOLESTEROL was 206, and TRIGLYCERIDE 312 only 6 months ago I am pleased, but still working on them.
