I'm sorry to hear about the health issues, actually sorry for everyone that has had some problems. Getting older is no fun.
I always felt bad getting shingles in 2021. Two weeks of real pain but it's over now and I couldn't get those Shingrex vaccines soon enough afterwards. I think I had to wait a few months to get my system clear. My wife beat me to it really quick after seeing what I was going through. Might be the best $800 we have spent not to get it again, well at least not so severe if it does happen. We shy away from everything medical but this was an eye opener. We still didn't go to any doctor for the vaccines, just got our shots at the local grocery store pharmacy. On a lighter note, I think we got points for gasoline too!!
Doing Better, Got My Dosage Changed Yesterday after 6 Hours of Back & Forth Calls Between Pharmacy, Doctors Assistant & Doctor! Was Told Flat Out No Three Times But Persisted & She Gave in! True Story!
ain't that the truth. Love the commercials for scrips, 20 seconds of what it'll do for you, a minute and a half of what all problems it'll cause. That inevitably you'll need another scrip to fix.

Consult Your Health Care Professional ASAP if you Die!
LOL, exactly. There's one they advertise for blood sugar I think, but one of the side effects is "life threatening infection of the perineum".
So I can have lower blood sugar, but I might get an infection in my taint so bad I will die?
No thanks, I'll cut down on the Krispy Kreme donuts.
My Doctor Physicians Assistant said they wanted to put me on one of the Biologics to lower my A1C and I said let me try something first, so I changed my diet and lowered my A1C from over 9 to 6.2 in 7 months and actually lost 40 pounds doing it without any adverse side effects.

I Had Similar Scenario Just this Year! Cut Out the Soda's, Sweets & Ice Cream and Dropped My A1c To an Acceptable Level. The Shots & Pills She Tried to get Me To Use Gave Me Stomach Pains which were not Livable. It's Always another Pill From the Medical Profession. If I Did Not Put My Foot Down I Would Be on 6 or 7 Meds instead of 3. I wish it were None! I Always Try & Find Natural Remedies for Me & The Wife's Ills!

Hope Everything Comes Out with Your Situation and any Site Issues Can Be Ironed Out!
I will Defer after This Post as Far As {Your Situation} To Your Thread!
Let Me Add That The Small Dedicated Group Who Still Post & Add To The Knowedge Base Here are All Appreciated. We Must Have Done Something Right Over The Years as 6-9 Hundred People a Day are Reading Our Old Posts. So we Still are a Great Source of Information Regardless of Numbers Logged in. It's Easy to Remember the Hustle & Bustle of the Old Days With Rose Colored Glasses as Well. Plenty of Folks Long Gone Would Cause Issues & get Deleted Posts & Banned For Over The Line Behavior. I never Used the Super Mod Controls That I Had For Many Years Until I Came Back & Found Out it Was Pretty Much Svopaul By Himself Running The Show. I Just Kind of Started Helping Out! Honestly I Have Had to Do Very Little Other Than Finding & Banning Spammers. This Small Group of Posters are Very Well Behaved.
It is Appreciated Folks.
Again I Hope My Scrambled Brain is Getting Accross What I'm Trying to Say!
That is Thanks To All that Keep the Boat Afloat!
Mgb,
KC
