my friend-
"Just got back from my yearly visit with my Dr. Needless to say it didn't go well, she ended up walking out on me.
It got nasty when she started telling me how hard it was on the staff when people who refuse the vaccine get covid and then take up all the resources.
That really Pissed me off.
So are you telling me vaccinated aren't getting covid?
she said no they are getting it too.
Well then aren't they taking up resources too?
That's when she got mad and walked out. She never even checked me over. Just got up and walked out. On her way out the door she told me my prescription will be sent to WalMart. lol
I knew then exactly how she would treat me if I ever got Covid. No thank you. I'll be looking for a new doctor."
Most doctors think their high and mighty. After living for for 70 some years, I have observed medical doctors are some of the most 'boxed in' and close minded thinkers of any professional I've met. To get them to think outside of the box is like trying to coax a lizard out from under a rock. It's Plato's Cave with these people.
My dad is a medical researcher. He works with doctors and talks about this A LOT. He says people think Doctors are smart but really they are just mechanics for the body. They don't do any of their own research and just memorize and apply technical books.
I have found this to be true. I used to insist I didn’t need statin drugs and she would frown and shake her head. Eventually, she got a heart disease risk calculator on her computer and she typed in my numbers and viola—I had a 5% chance of developing heart disease. She about fell out of her chair. See, I had done research outside of the mainstream medical stuff. It’s just exactly like what we are finding out with Covid. You have to do your own research and advocate for your own health.
Good for you. Those statins are bad news and aren't worth it unless you REALLY need them.
One of my best friends is a doctor and I asked him about the "variants":
Me: (asking about people he brought up who died recently) "Can the current tests determine which variant that they died with?"
Him: "Well none of those ppl were vaccinated. But if a vaccinated person died you just look at their vaccine card to know which they got."
Me: "Sorry, I should've asked it more clearly. Did the test differentiate what variant they died from?"
Him: "Oh I do not know that. I’m guessing there are tests to determine that."
Me: 😎😎😎😎😎😎😎😎
IMO most drugs are bad especially the ones they give "in case you need it". Last time I went for a checkup (about six weeks ago), the nurse used a digital BP device, and my BP was freaking high. I had been prescribed meds for it, but for the most part hadn't used them. I asked the nurse to check it with a manual device and it was way, way lower. This didn't surprise me because I'm a nurse and mostly worked in long term care. I occasionally used the digital BP but the readout was nearly always suspiciously high, so I'd revert to the manual one and it was, of course, much lower. So, I asked the nurse why they were using digital and she said she didn't know, but agreed the reading was usually much higher. Of course they use the one that gives a higher reading, then prescribe meds for it. Problem reaction solution in a nutshell.
They've been treated like saints for far too long. How many of them forget the human in their patients, merely clocking in and out with no regard for the outcome?
I used to really admire doctors until I found myself shouting at one in the clinic in the patient hallway.
