*** Bloodwork Test Results ***

Just got back from my visit with my GP to go over my bloodwork results.

6.6

From my initial results when DX'd of 12.8 - I really had no where to go but down with insulin now back in my system.

This really did make my day. Its kinda cool to have something to show for all the hard work and time put into the control of this crazy lil think we call Diabetes.

I have my photocopy of the results stuck to the fridge for all to see.

That's definitely a "fridge-worthy" result! Keep up the good work!
