Every once in awhile that cheerful and positive demeanor (yeah I might seem like a crank here but this is a politics board) takes a blow from a situation.</p>
<p>Yesterday, since the mail order pharmacy was slow to get my prescription in the shipping lane, I had to jump through hoops to get 5 pills from my local pharmacy. 60 bucks but that's life.</p>
<p>My gripe has nothing to do with the cost of the medication or the fact insurance wouldn't help because I've already ordered mail order, before the Bernie Sanders gang hops in. <img src="https://brownsboard.com/assets/plugins/nodebb-plugin-emoji/emoji/android/1f642.png?v=2a192e496db" class="not-responsive emoji emoji-android emoji--slightly_smiling_face" title=":slightly_smiling_face:" alt="🙂" /></p>

<p>I purchased a cart load of shit at Sams Club along with those 5 doses of diabetes medicine. I loaded up the car and after I drove away I realized I left the prescription in the cart. Went back to Sams and the cart guy help me out and found the bag in one of the shopping carts, without the pill bottle.</p>
<p>After filing a lost and found another cart guy asked if I had parked around this area, &amp; I said yes. He said he thought he'd seen it so we walked down to the cart return and there was the bottle. Empty. The bottle was just discarded.</p>

<p>Of course Sams Club and the pharmacy couldn't really help, since it is a prescription medication and it wasn't anyone who works theres fault.</p>

<p>I was just pissed off by the fact that there are scum bags in the world.</p>

She doesn't 'fit' so much with the family - doesn't like cats or play cards, two big things in the family for example - but if they're happy together who the fuck cares.

<p>fasting resets insulin sensitivity. Look not suggesting you go on a 4 day fast tomorrow. But do yourself a favor and look up some of scientifically proven things that happen to the human body when it fasts. Maybe trying half a day here and there with something to drink or eat always on standby might not be a bad thing depending on the severity of your condition. I'm not a doctor nor claiming to be, but what I do know for a fact...and this comes from prior health issues of my own....is that they don't tell you the full story, ever. There's things they know but they don't tell you for various reasons. Some of it is liability...if I tell a patient to fast and it doesn't work and they get fucked up i'm on the hook. But some of it absolutely is the need to keep us all sick and on their hook</p>

<p>Do nothing before you're researched everything yourself. I have read of people with full blown diabetes that kicked it through fasting. You will never be told that's a possibility from a doctor but look it up yourself. And just so you understand it would probably take multiple smaller fasts for you to see improvement. Nothing happens overnight.</p>

<p>THe most fascinating thing to me when I started reading up on the whole thing was the fact that the body makes just stupid amounts of growth hormone in the absence of calories. There was a NIH study on it that I read.</p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/579962</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/579962</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[Clevfan4life]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:20:31 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to My fellow man on Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:06:39 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<p><a href="http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/diabetes/basics/definition/con-20033091" rel="external nofollow">http://www.mayoclinic.org/diseases-conditions/diabetes/basics/definition/con-20033091</a></p>]]></description><link>https://brownsboard.com/post/579961</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://brownsboard.com/post/579961</guid><dc:creator><![CDATA[DieHardBrownsFan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:06:39 GMT</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Reply to My fellow man on Fri, 19 Feb 2016 17:03:56 GMT]]></title><description><![CDATA[<blockquote><p><a class="plugin-mentions-user plugin-mentions-a" href="/user/clevfan4life" aria-label="Profile: clevfan4life">@<bdi>clevfan4life</bdi></a> <a href="/post/579950">said</a>:</p><p>diabetes is the loss of insulin sensitivity correct?</p></blockquote>
