General Discussion / Re: 4 days in ICU
« on: November 25, 2022, 05:39:30 AM »What a wake up call for you and your Family. Good advise about not ignoring pains/discomforts especially as we age. I bet they are now directing you to a dietician and advising to change your wicked ways in life. I had to when I got diabetes.
Glad to hear that you have survived and that you are on the mend so take care and take on all the suggestions they make, it really isn't that bad.
More and more people are learning that the health care industry is not necessarily interested in your health. I will not take the Statins they prescribed. Or the blood pressure medicine prescribed 'matter of factly' without consideration. I am pre-diabetic, yet the food they brought me was all Carbs and sugar! I didn't eat any of it, my wife brought me the proper diet (which includes red meat and fat). A year ago I went to a Keto diet, lost 17 lbs in 4 weeks, and my BSL went from an average of 155 to 105. Very little Carbs and as little sugar as possible. To 'take on all suggestions they make' is a fools errand I'm afraid. The drug companies need to keep you sick and treat the symptoms to keep you buying their pills....
