Hello @jjcypher ,

Welcome to the forum. Sorry to hear that your relationship was toxic, but it must come as some sort of relief to know that you are managing your diabetes better. How are you feeling since November? Have you had a diabetes check since then?

Well done @jjcypher
You have clearly made a good start on this new medication and with the changes you have made to your diet. Keep the new pattern going and fire away with any questions that arise.
