| Hi Woofie! I am approved but my hbA1C level is .3 too high, so I am waiting another month for an new test and following a low carb diet. We are at a lot of different stages here so there is always someone to help you out. BTW I love your screen name. I am assuming you are a dog person.  (closest smilie to a dog on here!)
