I looked at your link Pepper and saw they recommended NOT eating take out foods. I also saw they said Jardiance was for kidney problems which I've NEVER been told I have. I got some bad DIRECT QUESTIONS upon next visit.
Eating issues are extremely tough. There are so many causes. Some need psychological help. They eat to replace something they are missing or avoiding. The best time to diet always seems to be tomorrow for many folks.
It affected my appetite, and basically I'm just not very hungry anymore, and I eat just little bits here and there and I don't think about food like I used to... I used to love Chinese buffets, now if we go out to eat, I order a regular plate and eat less than half and pack the rest for home... (Or let my wife order a plate and we split it)
Agreed. What used to be a healthy blood pressure reading when I was younger is now high or borderline. Doctors just push to put people on prescriptions for everything these days, rather than address what causes the issue (if there even is an issue) in the first place.
Well I just got off my ass and got out my little blood pressure machine. I used to have to take my late wife's every morning and evening. Mine is 127/74 & pulse @ 75. So I looked up a graph and see mine is on the high side of normal. I think I'll continue taking it every morning and evening until next Dr. appointment. If robertk is correct mine would probably be considered normal years ago.
Now I got a question about that last sentence.. Why would anyone..? Overactive production? There's probably a TV ad for that also if I paid attention more.
Instead of simply changing one's intake down the pie hole.
Not bad says Dr. Brad. But I am concerned about that heart rate messing with your monthly menstrual cycle sir. That's worse than my possible vaginal yeast infection your concerned about from Jardiance. Let's move on...!!!!! (pepperj / Limitool feud)
That's pretty good. Here's mine after walking around Wal-Mart a couple weeks back and stopping at their little machine thing.
That's pretty good sir... especially that ol' heart. Let's hope it holds.
Well done sir.
They where never thought to be safe. The doctors where paid off to lie to us that they where safe.. Just like they where paid off to tell us sugar is good and fat is bad.
I disagree, but that is okay.
Most polite response ever! Made me rethink my response rather then go into the defensive. You must be a Jedi.
Looking back tobacco was never thought of to be unhealthy, it was all the crap the cig companies added to it. Remember a lot of old timers only smoking a pipe of tobacco leaf after dinner and not having to have it every 45-90 minutes like people do now with smokes.
My stepfather started smoking Kools at 13, smoked them all his life, and died of COPD (emphysema) at 49. At the time of his death, I was in the Air Force and had taken up smoking in boot camp/basic because if you smoked you got a smoke break if you didn't smoke you didn't get a break, and in boot camp, you wanted all the breaks you could get. I stopped smoking on his death, I decided I did not want to die that young or that hard. Emphysema is a hard death.....Most polite response ever! Made me rethink my response rather then go into the defensive. You must be a Jedi.
I was there when my father took his last breath. He died from Emphysema. Smoked camel non-filtered cigs for 50 years then switched to filtered ones (big deal). My late wife died from Emphysema also and it took a long time. She was only 64. Personally I have never smoked my entire life.
