I'll up you one more and my family is pissed that I don't have a (doctor) . Why even see one if nothing is wrong is what I told them..They will find something wrong with you for sure.
Right there with ya. My family complains I wont go to the dentist or doctor. Nothing wrong with me so why go? I guess I get that from my mother. She made me laugh when she went to the doctor in her 60s for a hurt ankle and the doctor asked her what medications does she take. She said none. He stopped dead in his tracks and said, "at 60? How?". My mom said "I never go to the doctor, that's how"
I don't have a doctor either. Once about 10 years ago, we had a traveling nurse come to the house. When I told her I didn't drink or take any drugs or medications, she literally turned red with anger. FREAK, pissed off that I wasn't buying their bullshit.
I was at the doctor's last week. The nurse asked if I wanted the flu shot. I said nope. She said well don't be surprised if the doctor talks you into it. The doctor never even mentioned it. LOL. Knows better.
Yeah, I even refused a tetanus shot after I fell off my motorbike two years ago and got an infected elbow. The nurse couldn't believe that I said "no thanks".
Guys, tetanus shots have been around for many decades and have saved many, many lives.
It's been extensively tested in animals because all horses are given tetanus shots for their own protection. Nobody has ever reported any ill effects from the injections in either horses or humans.
Tetanus is a horrible and extremely painful condition. Be grateful you can prevent it, for yourself and especially for your kids.
No sauce = troll bullshit. "saved many, many lives." I just saw a video from a doctor who said she couldn't find any record of ANYONE even GETTING tetanus much less dying from it. More likely this is 100% PROPAGANDA about rusty nails... If you want to quote Big Pharma here on this board, BRING THE SAUCE or fuck off.
First, Congress should remove all legal protections that big pharma has regarding vaccines making them liable for any death or injury sustained as a result of taking them. Then see how long before they're suddenly not needed.
I can't updoot your comment enough. And then we'll see how long until the primary care idiots stop forcing this shit down many unsuspecting (although completely willing) patients' collective throats.
My wife asked me to attend her annual physical a few weeks back, because her PCP has been lightly bullying her about the fucking COVID, flu and pneumonia shots during the last few well visits. I sat in the exam room during her exam, silent, though I was glaring at the doc the entire time. When he began his usual push ("You NEED to get these shots, blah, blah), I allowed my wife to make her case and protest on her own but when he started a secondary push, I waded in and said, "She's NOT interested, doctor." And then he folded like the cheap-suit, milquetoast eastern Indian-born schmuck that he is and always has been.
I used to see the same doc as my PCP several years ago, but left him in the dust during the COVID era for obvious reasons. I'm so fucking tired of Big Pharma incentivizing this bullshit...and the WILLING doctors falling into step to push it. Big Pharma needs ALL protections removed...and then they ALL need to be held accountable.
My last shot was tetanus too, about 2015 as well. I was 'hesitant'. The doc went on and on about 'safe and effective'. Lockjaw, blah blah. I caved. Got the shot, got ready to leave...
Doc: "You can't leave yet, you need to wait here for 15-20 minutes."
Me: "Oh? Why?"
Doc: "In case you go into anaphylactic shock."
Me: "What!? 30 seconds ago it was safe and effective!."
Doc: "Yeah, well, it's rare."
They also never mentioned it would not be effective for my present injury, even according to their own info!
So instead of 'safe and effective' it was 'risky and useless'.
Same, last injection I got as well. I was unconscious with a bone poking out of my arm however. Gimme a snowboard, skateboard, jeep, dirt bike, snowmobile, jet ski or anything else and I'll figure out how to do something stupid on it. Usually wake up in the ER and start pulling IV's and everything else off me. I once had to pull my own catheter out to make a run for the door.
I was picking my nose one time sitting in traffic months after breaking my nose the fourth time. Deviated septum. Found a wirey hair and started tugging on it. Felt like it was attached to the back of my brain... finally got home and grabbed on it with needle nose pliers and yanked like hell... way stranger than that tube in my pee-hole.
I swear part of my spine came out with it. Dissolveable stitches my ass! I'm tamig down with age, everything hurts more the older you get. 3 or 4 years since my last visit to the ER. It ain't the years it's the mileage. I'm still a pure blood though!
I'm with you on that! Didn't get the vaxx, never plan to or flu shots. And my new grandbaby hasn't gotten any vaxx's yet, thank heavens. She's almost 3 months old now.
I'll never take another vaxx, for anything, ever. EVER.
Never did any covid shots and never had a flu shot. Every year my doctor asks 'Do you want a flu shot?' and my reply is 'Why would I want the flu?'

That's so funny and refreshing Juju7 ! 😬👊👍

Exactly !
Lol. Good answer!

That is funny!!!
That is what happened every time I got one, and the only two times I ever had it.
Same here. The only time I got a 'flu shot, I subsequently came down with a miserable case of the 'flu. Haven't had it since.
DITTO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Is tetanus even a real disease? I've never heard of someone getting tetanus, only the shots. Same with Rabies.

Good decision.

Me neither - the last one I had was a tetanus shot in 2015 - I’m not even getting that any more.
