Not to mention we battle Arthur in at least one form or another, I have 2, plus a muscle disease Fibromyalgia, and nerve damage in both legs and feet. I do well to control my weight through diet. Which means 2 very small meals a day and no junk food, and still 10 lbs over weight for my 5’1’ medium frame. Walking was my form of exercise, until the nerve damage and extreme pain showed up.

This will just lead to gaming the system. Can you say ‘bribe’?

Besides, virtually ALL studies show that folks who are somewhat [but not morbidly] overweight have better longevity. Those rail thin vegan weenies drop dead of heart attacks, cholesterol, or for women osteo issues at a younger age.

If they choose to ‘deny’ treatment due to perceived BMI issues, they will be subjected to class action suits up the ass. Besides, they may find themselves with no cash as productive types turn to doing ‘favors’ for ‘friends’.

I have never understood the lefties who celebrated ‘getting rid of the middleman’ in private industry are in an all fire hurry to inject the governmental middleman [which is worse as they are REWARDED for spending every penny they receive] into almost every issue.

Frickin’ fascist/communist/Maoist ars*holes.

Have you looked into Vitamin D. Have a friend with the condition and he moved to Australia from the UK, just so he could get it naturally! Made a HUGE difference. He said that before, waking up was like he’d worked out all day in a gym and had the worst hangover, ever. After the Vitamin D absorption increased, it was much, much better.

Literally, he hardly slept before as waking up was so painful.

Hope things go well for you :-)
