Does medicine ever change the rules to gain patients?

Asked by lucillelucillelucille (34325points) October 21st, 2010

A friend had his blood sugar tested and was told by the doctor that he is Type 2 diabetic with results at a 113.The previous thresholds were 80–140.Recently it was revised downward to 70–100.
Did the medical establishment arbitrarily make millions of people diabetic in order sell drugs?
