Re: [TypeTwo] diabetes

I take 15 mg of Actos but that's only in the last 3 weeks. Before that
I was on 30 mg. However, since I've been diagnosed on 15 November 2002
I have lost 60 pounds. I'm on Atkins and will be for life. I'm very
pleased with the fact that my meds are being lowered each time I go to
the Dr. along with better BP, cholesterol, and a A1C of 5.7.
