Default Thanks..

I have been lurking since being diagnosed 10/24/02, this is my first post. When I was diagnosed with this disease I had no idea what I needed to do, eat, etc.. I have learned so much at this and the Diabetic form.

I have received the lab report from my three month follow-up. I have gone from an A1C of 10.2 to 5.6, my triglycerides were over 200 and now are 95. My cholesterol is 135. I have also lost 42 pounds.

Many times during the last three months I would get discouraged and feel sorry for myself. I would come here and see others having the same doubts and the advise and support they were given.

Thanks again to everyone for the information and knowledge shared on these forums.

Mike
