Being unable to drive due to pain medication and Fibromyalgia
Fools and corruptness in government and big business
The fact that people are struggling to feed themselves when corporations hide money from the taxman, it's just greedy and selfish
I have been on Metformin/Pioglitazone for about 4 months now. Does anyone else take this and do you have side effects. The clinic imply that this mix is fairly new

In todays daily fail they are mentioning that pioglitazone is banned in France and has been dropped in Germany. I don't know whether to be worried by this

On Pioglitazone I calmly decided that as we are all doomed to die eventually i would just go now WOW. Nurse stopped pio instantly and all returned to normal so be very aware of odd effects
