[QUOTE="nickm, post: 1328659, member: 217514"] IanD, are you not aware what happens to some people who post details of their T1 treatment on the internet? Decades after diagnosis, I am complication free and very successful at managing my T1, despite also being on steroids. My physical performance exceeds 99.9% of my peers. Yet I won't be posting details of my unorthodox treatment. Last time I pointed out errors in a medical research paper, I was sued for defamation. In Australia, truth is not a defence. Neither is public interest. I am currently being investigated by the medical board because one of my social media posts allegedly promoted an approach to diabetes with which doctors disagree. If you take advice from a profession who use legal thuggery to ensure that their version of truth prevails, then it would not be surprising if your health outcomes are not as good as mine. If you want frank and fearless advice, then you need to provide an academic or legal framework for that advice to be given without retribution. [/QUOTE]
