Well, I'd like to think so, but I'm not sure whether my readings have been skewed by the antibiotics, although I've stopped taking them for a week now, so maybe not. Wish I could lose some more weight, though... seems to have stalled (probably due to the HF). :(
You seem to be pretty well back on track with your BGs now, too.
