I really do not know just exaxtly what the numbers mean in terms of how bad off you are, although I have read "what the numbers mean" elsewhare on this site. I think that they are interesting, even fascinating, but I'm not sure that they matter for much. It seems to me that either you are afflicted or you're not. And even though the numbers can be a yardstick to measure how well some given titration works, I think that the real test is how well you feel and function. If you are not 'good' then there is more work to do.
