You wrote, [...I think its highly unlikely that you have..diabetes after a couple of weeks on such a low dose...].
I am unsure as to what authority you use, if any, to substantiate what you think. If you could post answers to the following, then I could have the opportunity to respond accordingly.
A. Are you aware of how a drug can induce diabetes?
B. If so, how many pills or days of taking the drug, does the liturature state where diabetes was induced by the drug?
C. If the chemical constituants in a mind-altering drug could cause death or a life-ruining condition (redacted by respondent)
D. Could you post here a citation to substantiate what you wrote?
