[QUOTE="catherinecherub, post: 720012"] It is weird that some people can take them with no side effects and yet others have a terrible time with them. They crippled me, my legs were so painful when I walked that I had visions of ending up in a wheelchair. I could not drive, my memory was failing fast and others around me were noticing a change. They had been prescribed as a precautionary measure after a heart attack and genetics. Dr. stopped them and things returned to normal slowly, it probably took about six months. This was about 10 years ago. Was asked recently if I would like to try them again albeit a smaller dose of a different one but I refused and my Dr. understood why. There was no way I was going to try any of them after my previous experience. My brother, not a diabetic, takes them and has no side effects. [/QUOTE]
