Thanks, Mike, well said, and worth repeating.
It is very frustrating to have such negative experiences at the hands
of those who are in the business of helping us, and then to learn of
the blatent warfare tactics of a powerful few to keep the rest in line
and promote one point of view, and one standard of care. It often seems
as though there is no one who will listen and help, and would rather we
go off and die quietly than continue to bother them with our non
existent, psychosomatic complaints. My insurance company certain would
have liked that- one less person to interfere with their money making
capability.
Then you find a gem- one who even calls you at home to make sure you
are not off dying in an emergency room without him knowing, another one
who while shackled with restraints, makes sure I know who is
successfully treating this if I would like to go, and makes off the
record recommendations of supplements that he knows will help.
There is a real and serious problem with medical practice in this
country, and it seems to start with HMO's, and "standards of care" that
are necessary to deal with the litigous nature of the populace, who in
general seem to believe everyone has a *right* to good health, and may
think suing a dr means suing an insurance company. Stuff happens. To
everybody, if you only live long enough to not die tragically young.
Everyone is dying, if you want to look at it that way. We all just want
to put it off for as long as possible, and enjoy our life as much as we
can. Many good doctors help with that. I owe my life twice over to good
drs that keep up, and know how to think through problems. Thank God for
them. I also owe my recovery to my own efforts,and I prefer to fix
myself when ever possible. Sometimes it has not been possible.
