I’m very happy for your son-in-law and all associated family members. I have friends who have benefitted greatly, as well.
Nonetheless, this procedure is more like treatment for smoking-related conditions that it is like patching up an auto-accident victim or delivering a baby. This is true of much medical treatment, of course.
The main point, as far as I’m concerned, is that none of us should want our access to medical care - or others’ access - to be subject to the whims of unaccountable politicians or bureaucrats.
I feel the same way. Especially being stuck with full gov’t control of my own health care.
How can my doctor give me the best health care if he can only run bone density test every 2 yrs, and not before age 60? By then it is to late.
Nor do I like being told where I can get my meds from. Especially when the company is known for Fraud and over riding DAW scripts with generics I am allergic to. I only take 1 name brand script, Synthroid. the Generic does not have enough of the hormone, and the fillers cause allergic reactions. Lack of Thyroid hormone causes bone density issues. Same goes for to much of the hormone. It’s a fine balancing act that takes a ENDOCRINOLOGIST, a good one to keep on top of. I use Internist for years and was under treated as they don’t have the knowledge to treat an Endocrine issue.
