Re: vytorin

Maybe you think today's doctors are geniuses compared to those in King Charles day, if so these ACTUAL COMMENTS TAKEN FROM HOSPITAL CHARTS might change your mind.

1) The patient refused autopsy.

2) On the second day the knee was better and on the third day it disappeared.

3)The patient is tearful and crying constantly. She also appears to be depressed.

4) While in ER, she was examined, x-rated and sent home.

5) Occasional, constant infrequent headaches.

6) Rectal examination revealed a normal sized thyroid.

7) Skin: somewhat pale but present.

8) The patient has been depressed since she began seeing me in 1993.

9) I saw your patient today,who is still under our car for physical therapy.

10) The lab test indicated abnormal lover function.

11) Health appearing, decrepit 69 year old male, mentally alert but forgetful.

12) Patient has 2 teenage children but no other abnormalities.

13) Between you and me, we ought to be able to get this lady pregnant.

14) She slipped on the ice and apparently her legs went in seperate directions in early December.

15) She has no rigors or shaking chills, but her husband states she was very hot in bed last night.

16) Discharge status: Alive, but without my permission.

17) Examination of genitalia revealed he was circus sized.

18) She is numb from her toes down.

19) The patient was seen in consultation with Dr Smith , who felt we should sit on the abdomen and I agree.

20) By the time he was admitted, his rapid heart had stopped and he was feeling better.



This is not funny, remember these are the people administering drugs to you!!

Re: vytorin

reminds me of the lawyer ones.. One where the lawyer asked the doctor "Have any of the people you preformed autopsies on ever objercted" , "ARe all of the people you preformed autopsies on dead"......Just like you said, they're humorous, but scary. These are the people that we are paying way to much money to, for them to be arrogant (or ignorant) with us.

Drug companies see there is no money in natural products, only their synthetic versions. ANd you're right some of these are much more potent. Only a couple drawbacks with the synthetic version. First, You can develop an immunity to synthetic versions, that you would not with the natural version. And second, the natural version contains many more parts than the synthetic. They have only identified the active part that they want for a certain medication. Kind of like picking the cherries out of a pie and throwing the rest away. Usually natural products have all of their parts working together...not just one part.


So what am I supposed to do? Go out and rip some bark off of a willow tree and chaw on it? Heh

And of course there is no money in alot of natural products. Why? Because they DON'T work well in their natural state !

What's wrong with cherry picking the good stuff, or the part that works? I mean, if George Washington Carver took THAT attitude the most we would ever get from peanuts is peanut butter !
