I'm stopping all my BP meds !!!

babun
Just wasting my money. My brain is ready to explode.

Just heard on the radio, {will have to look into the story},

That a burglar just was awarded $500,000 for mental suffering.
He broke into a house while the owners were on vacation.
He got "trapped" in the garage for 8 days. Lived on dog food and
a case of pepsi.
The jury found that the home owners knew the garage door was broken, and their home insurance had to pay the thief.

wth???

    I can believe it. People think that the insurance company willl pay so nothing out of pocket for HO.

    Except that all of our HO ins. goes up. Now with many people not owning a home and they hate their landlord so want to stick it to HO.

    That appears to be the one. Listed as a hoax. Seems it's making it's way around again because of some recent bogus lawsuits filed.

    Speaking of stopping taking BP meds and other type meds. I had 2 elderly aunts 5 years ago that decided they would get on a health kick and take natural herbs and other like crap that they had been reading and hearing about instead of their doctor prescribed medications. How did that work out you might ask? Well I don't have any elderly aunts any longer. They both kicked the bucket shortly there after.

    Yes please do not stop taking BP meds. If there are two to continue then BP first then cholesterol second.

    As for the settlement I would put a hold in court and sue him for whatever anguish has been caused to your family. Have to move, and can not sleep at night, PTSD.

    +1 on staying on your meds. The world is and never will be fair. Do not let that change your style.

    I'm not going off the meds, they keep me alive. Much to the happiness of
    the Devil. He's afraid I'll take over hell when I die.

    That's what happens when Greedy lawyers lobbies for elected officials and get their payoffs with Insurance companies which is another racket of rip-offs for the working citizens!

    If you live in a metropolitan area and drive a car with liability insurance is nothing short of highway robbery!
