    Quetiapine and t2 diabetes

    I've always refused statins. They tried to put me on them so I was like screw this and started the keto diet. No need for them now anyway. I've lost like 3 stone now but I'm stalling now so I think changing meds will help. I'm in a mental health unit at the moments and they're monitoring the...

    It's actually a joke. People are in hospital to get better, not more sick. I know am on a mental health ward but am pretty sure the main hospitals the same. They don't even just have meat and salad which confirms its all ready meals and yes, packaged sandwiches

    heartburn

    Lol silly me I usually take about 2 tablespoons before food. I take it straight, but a lot of people like to mix it with water. Need to make sure you use the pure stuff though, it's the one that's cloudy at the bottom! Doesn't work for everyone, but when you get that horrible heart burn...
