HadIt.com Elder Pete53 Posted July 10, 2007 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 10, 2007 Here is my opinion on medicine. It can save your life. I am one who would not be here if not for medicine and intervention. I trust Doctors to figure out and prescribe medication that I need. I take some time and research the meds. I refused naproxin cause I found out on the internet that it could burn my kidneys up. Acupuncture and holistic medicine my be great for some but I don't think it will stop me from having a heart attack if I quit taking Plavix. So to be blunt whether you believe as JackandCoke is your business but I have hitched my wagon to rely on professionals to suggest treatment and usually follow their advice. Tomorrow I have appointments for lab work and to see my VA Gatekeeper a pretty god Doc and I respect her. Someone spent a lot of money training her and she appears to actually care what I think so I am fairly happy. I have some medical issues to go over with her. Jack thanks for posting urls and for a thoughtful opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadIt.com Elder LarryJ Posted July 10, 2007 HadIt.com Elder Share Posted July 10, 2007 Hey, Pete! You gonna be at VAMC Dallas in the morning? I've got an 0800 appointment with the Prothesis/Orthosis folks up on the second floor. I'll wear my cute little USMC cap. I'll be the one trying to walk........no, wait, that pretty well described most of the vets in the Prothesis/Orthosis dept. Anyway, I'll be there for most of the day.....got a psych appointment at 1000, etc. Starbucks is on me. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ffranktly Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 thats why fringe modalities are always fighting for credibility. because the people that are advocates often have a completely closed mind about other remedies. like you. your advice and opinion are worth exactly what you offered. two cents. you are definitely on the wrong website with this mantra, and by the way, Jack Daniels will cause holes in your throat. you are happy to see this response IMO, because all you want to do is stir the pot.

Guest JACKNCOKE Posted July 10, 2007 Share Posted July 10, 2007 Pete, respect your choice, but you said you rely on professionals... Thats what Naturopaths are, they have an ND behind thier name instead of an MD... They are just trained in a different discipline. Acupuncturists have to go to school for like 4 years... And by the way, Capiscum, the active ingredient in cayenne pepper, WILL stop a heart attack... http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&q=c...ne+heart+attack Ffranktly: "you are definitely on the wrong website with this mantra" And you've been here how long to know??? "Jack Daniels will cause holes in your throat" What's your point? So will Coke Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
