Michelle,
It means that your insulin levels are probably normal now. If you are on glucophage or some insulin sensitizing medication, it's probably a good dose and probably working.
I had a c-peptide test when I was on glucophage and the results were a little high. My doctor told me to increase my glucophage dosage. I did begin to feel better and my next c-peptide test results were normal.
C-peptide tests help to measure the amount of insulin the pancreas is making.
