Type II Diabetes.

Ha, driving around town trying to find Bohica's kind of silicone spray, Wal-Mart doesn't sell silicone spray and Menards carries Liquid Wrench brand that reads exactly like Gunk, screw it.

Radio on PSB as usual, a doctor on complaining about the current medication treatments for diabetes, I didn't stop and listen to the entire problem, but the jest is that the current medications cause a weight gain that is highly unproductive and while trying to lower the sugar blood count, actually also raises it. Some guy called in that was hundred pounds overweight on medications got off of them, changed his diet to fruits and vegetables, and claimed his blood sugar is getting under control without medications.

Not suggesting anything here, but seems like to a net search may be worth the effort. From my own experience, was taking a medication that I found later causes cluster headaches that was suppose to cure cluster headaches and had a nasty side effect of putting 50 extra pounds on me. Also skyrocketed my low cholesterol count that may be the reason why I am having problems today, that damned worthless medication. I lost that weight simply by getting off the medication, even against the wishes of my doctor and my clusters stopped shortly after.

Heard another doctor yesterday that claims 4 out of five doctors just don't listen to their patients and prescribe without even testing, talk about trying to find a decent AC shop, a lot more at stake here. That reminded me of the number of back specialist I talked to with a long drawn out dissertation about major back surgery that had a 50-50 chance of leaving me permanently crippled. I could at least take six inch steps at a time. Quite by accident, ran across a surgeon that did a simple outpatient surgery that permitted me to take full size steps again, still limp, but at least can keep pace.

Sure doesn't sound very good about doctors in general, whether they are right or wrong, still charge through the nose, just about the only profession that I know of except attorneys that can get away with that.

What makes doctors even worse, they only have to work on two models.
