Hey @"Kiwi Angel" and @Sister.
Thank you for thinking of me. Well, for some, the SE do settle after 6months, 12months. The lady I have been talking to said it took her two years to get it under control. I was talking to my BCN yesterday and she says from what she sees it's about a 50 50 split on who continues with it and who bails out due to their SE's.
I've thought about all the other options but this one is supposed to be the lesser of two evils. LOL
On a good note KiwiAngel, I've had no swelling, lost weight and it's halved my cholesterol. So yay for that bit. You might be fine. The sooner you start, the sooner you'll know I guess.
Fingers and toes crossed. xoxoxo
