Was quit alarmed at some of the possible side effects, one being lactic acidosis which requires immediate hospitalisation and has a 50% mortality rate!!
Although very early days I have to admit that my usual "feeling crap" all the time and general lethargy situation has subsided quite noticeably and I don't think it's psychosomatic, rather the meds are having some effect which came on after day five.
What's pissing me off though is some aspects of the diet regime I have to follow.
I get the low carbs,lay off the beer etc as common sense but, thanks to a study in the US (Thanks Yanks!), beef is now off the table!!
Yup the good old Sunday roast has now to be kicked into the long grass unless it consists of tofu and green beans!
I sometimes wonder if this is all propaganda generated by the medical authorities to persuade us to switch to a vegan diet, well as we say in Yorkshire...
KNACKERS TO THAT!!
