    I swore off doctors years ago. I’ll gladly die of an undiagnosed cancer or maybe even the flu, but this guys story is a best case scenario when government decides what blocks go on your interview portion for a physical.

    Even though this example didn’t happen that way it’s a perfect example of why you should never elaborate on details to a “medical professional”.

    In Connecticut today a teen girl can kill her child without her parent’s knowledge, but an old man is stripped of his prized collection of firearms for an angry outburst. There is a happy ending, but the State’s rules go too far.

    I failed to realize in my youth that I was the prize. I was going to work. I was going to earn. Little did I realize that due to feminism, that no longer meant I had to share. Road soon, Desert after.

    A few years back they were wanting airline pilots to undergo therapy if they suffered depression. Sounds logical, right? Well a lot of people thought so but what I kept thinking was the outcome would be that pilots just wouldn’t talk about negative feelings and keep flying anyway.

    This might be the silver lining of not having health care!

    I agree.
    In my youth I allowed myself to be a test-dummy, ‘cause I didn’t know better. The reason I became a test-dummy was b/c I had a rare illness. Not exotic, just rare.

    I have the f~~~ing scars to prove it.

    NEVER AGAIN will I become a slab of meat for Western Doctors. I would rather die.

    F~~~ that! I’d rather get fixed than left broken! We’re all like used cars, sometimes they give you parts from another car cause yours are junk. Not that I have any one else’s parts but I’ve seen it enough times.

    Doctors make repairs that could never be done before, and they do it routinely every day. Gone are the days of watching and feeling an extremity rot away from injury and eventually killing you. Now they fix you up and send you on your way!

    I have nothing but gratitude for the medical community! They’re the only ones that help you nine times out of ten. It’s called a “practice” because nothing’s perfect!

    Just watching my 80 year old unicorn old lady next door taking a major health dive. I’ve known this lady since I was a kid, and she has always been super healthy (loved her golf).

    About 6 months ago her husband was getting consumed by dementia, and finally had to get moved to a nursing home.

    Fast forward to now and she is just recovering from cancer surgery as she had a cancer removed from her stomach in her 20’s and they decided at 80 to clean up the small amount of cancer that had grown back, that was a few weeks back and she looked like she was healing well.

    They decided to give her chemo to just get any cancer cells they may have missed, even though they were happy with the initial procedure.

    What a difference a week makes and a massive dose of radiation, shes looking deathly sick, worse than before the op, after the op and I’m not sure if she is going to bounce back.

    My gut feel before the Chemo was a) she dosn’t need it, b) it may well kill her;

    Trust the gut!

    Modern Medicine can do Amazing Things, but it also turns some people into prescription ladened individuals that end up with laundry lists of powerful prescription drugs.

    Take the whole idea of what an evil eating fat/ cholesterol was 30 years ago, and foods like eggs were demonized in favor of consuming highly processed carbs, and look at what a mess that has become.

    There’s a reason the industry calls it “practicing medicine.”
