These jerks holding back medicine are on the wrong side of history. I hope you get some adequate relief soon!
i don't think anyone is holding back medicine... i think the bigger problem there is that big pharma is selling at excessive profits. While i understand that research and development cost a lot of money to develop drugs, and the clinicals they have to go through before the drug is ok'd by the FDA, there is no reason for a drug to cost more than $2.00 a dose after say a three year maximum to recoup R&D monies... yet my Diabetes meds cost before insurance 830.00 a month, and is a large part of why insurance premiums are so high... Thank you for your support, it means a lot. More importantly than that is if a few people couold resteem this occasionally so others can know just how important it is not to ignore any symptoms, and to get checked by their Dr. if they even suspect they may have two or more of the symptoms. IF more people wouldn't ignore the symptoms like i had, they might be able to catch it early enough(pre-diabetic) to reverse it... At my stage of the disease it is almost impossible to undo the damage to my pancreas. But i can make the dietary changes to save my kidneys, liver, prostate, heart, and circulatory system... that said, diabetes is always throwing a wrench into the works at the most inoppourtune times(like after my rotator cuff surgery), and does things like make me retain fluids, and weight(gained 37lbs. while being out of work recovering, and another 18lbs since returning to work in a restricted manner).
