I fought it till I had a psychosis. And I managed ok. What I wouldn't give to know that last hypo would turn so badly...

Who in the world wants to have cancer, diabetes, Lyme disease??
Life happens that we can't always control. Sure there is stigma with MI, but it's up to us in how we deal with it and to not make it worse and/or prove that is how people with disorders actually are. You also
do not know what meds I have been on in the past. This particular cocktail has made it possible to be stabile now, which is why I have made that 180 I was referring to. It is what you make of it. I'm sorry you've had such a negative experience with it.
