[QUOTE="zand, post: 2313003, member: 85197"] I think there is a prejudice against the obese who are deemed to have 'brought it on themselves'. I have been told by 3 doctors that I chose to be this way. I have been scorned by another and also a nurse when I said I had stuck to their diet but not only did it not work but it made me gain 8 pounds in 2 weeks. And yes, as your Mum can testify, we aren't always told the truth by our surgeries. I suffer from depression and just can't be bothered to argue with them anymore. I am grateful to Boots for providing me with at least some cover and also for allowing me to have the flu jab early in the season...and the right one for my age group too. [/QUOTE]
