BgMetrics, a native OS/2 solution to track Blood Glucose readings and
dietary info for diabetics is now publicly available.

In doing research for the program it was discovered that the previous
name of BgTracker was already in use. The name has been changed to
avoid any conflict and the program has been updated.

BgMetrics will... 

Track Bg readings for specific periods of the day.
Track meals (breakfast, lunch, dinner and snacks)
Track meal "carb" values.
Track weight. 
Track daily average of Bg readings.
Track daily total "carbs"
Graph Bg values, carbs and weight for any date range. 
Print Bg or meal reports and print graphs.

Future plans include support for downloading data from selected
glucometers and developing the database for other trackable items.
(Fat, calories, A1C readings etc.)

We would also like to find a source of food data that we can glean
fat, calorie, carbohydrate information from in order to create a meal
calculator. If you know of a database or flat file that we can
harvest (legally) please contact us.

If you, your family or friends have to track blood sugar and are
looking for an OS/2 solution, please stop by the PillarSoft website
and see if BgMetrics can work for you.

BgMetrics is not for sale at this time. We ask all users to please
use it freely as the features are fleshed out and do not worry about
it becoming commercial if you feel you won't be able to afford it. We
will find a way to make it available to you without missing any usage
or losing any data. It is our intention that no person go without any
help we can provide.

Downloads and more information is available at the PillarSoft website
under the "Products" category. PillarSoft is located at:
