[QUOTE="Jo_the_boat, post: 2123089, member: 436209"] Quite right, didn't read the OP properly. I am low carb but the free version - that's the one where I use my own common sense - which is probably where all the problems start! The dragon no longer breathes fire nor wears a tweed skirt. Yesterday she was in a very smart dark blue nurses uniform and tells me with a smile that I am doing well. I'm beginning to like her. I was even able to give her the phone number of my roofer / builder because she's doing her house up. Her husband is my GP so between them they have masses of responsibilty but also plenty of cash. She couldn't find much of a pulse in my feet but I reassured her, it wasn't her fault that the doppler machine was faulty. As I left I blind-sided her with an article about duff mitochondria being the cause of inflammation as opposed to glucose imbalance. That, I thought would tell her that I know far more about T2, resistance and everything else than she does. I was wrong. The final five minutes of my consultation was me listening to her lecture on mitochondria, much of it given over to medical expressions that were totally alien to me! We still disagree on statins / cholesterol but I take them for the vascular thing anyway so her husband gets the sales commission, helping no doubt to pay for the building work. [/QUOTE]
