hmm, interesting information....all I know is my doctor started me on Lipitor about 5 yrs ago and each year after my yearly physical she continues to keep me on it......as long as I'm still kicking, I'll take what she prescribes  |

Lipitor may affect people differently- I know I don't trust it.
Does she monitor your "liver numbers"? |

The scenario you are speaking of has also been done with Diabetes, BOB...
The Doctors are making a whole lot of people Hypoglycemic and comatose with insulin when it truly isn't needed  |

I wouldn't be surprised.
If we were better off, we'd be on the Atkins diet- it worked so well for us that it's not funny. Blood sugar stabilized, stomach problems diminished, felt better...
Problem is, it's expensive.
I've known people with BAD diabetes to go on that diet and not need insulin or medications.
I also wouldn't be at all surprised to learn that diabetes is caused by a bacterial infection as well. |

to answer, all I know is I get poked and prodded and bled enough that any problem should have shown up long before now.
I do thank you for your concern and information. |

They "poked and prodded and bled" me for over 20 years, and "found nothing".
It took a doctor who knew me personally and saw what I went through (I didn't know he was a doctor) before I got a diagnosis. |

I was just thinking of that Littlestar......what will happen to all those commercials that he did and what will happen to those products? Will they have to re make those commercials? Stop selling them and revamp them into a slightly diffrent product or what?
I saw some of his stuff in the store yesterday and was standing there looking at it all and wondering what will happen.... 
I know Karen Grassle that played the Mom on Little House On The Prairie fame is doing the Premier bath room tubs now and replacing Ed McMahon last year after he became ill.

that guy gives me the creeps and I will never buy his products....I heard from a friend they are really small and they don't work very well.. Even those sham wow products they have in Wal-MArt... I asked if I could open the b ox to see it before I decided to get one...it was very flimsy looking and not as thick as seen on the TV...in the commercial it looks like he has a bath towel!
I have tried the Green bags and they do work...as do the pedi egg, and the small purse...and the mighty putty.....and also those Topsy turvy bags...my neighbors plants are huge and are the envy of the neighborhood! ....the ones that don't work are those Kinoki foot pads...(All they do is soak up your sweat..) and and those stupid HD sunglasses...they don't stay on your face and arent adjustible...mine kept sliding down my glasses frames and didn't block the sun very well.. 
Now I may try those Bottle tops for your soda pop cans..those looked interesting!

They will always find a new Pitch-person for the products....
The Sham Wows were originally put forth to the Grooming Profession...as a way to dry the animals quickly without blow dryers...but they are crap
and those automatic Bottle openers..... I was so hoping they would work, as they looked on TV, but no matter what size or configuration I tried it on...it popped right off without getting a grip on the lid...total crap....
We should have a "SCAMS as seen on TV" thread |
