By the way Lampster, just an aside here but I work, eight
hours a day in a hospital ER. I see the dedication and the healing these men and women deliver. My late mother was an operating room nurse and later went on to become an operating room nursing supervisor. My wife works as a heart monitor technician.
And here's something else for ya Lampster old boy, Google
William C. Grace. That's my gg-grandfather. He was the Chief Medical Steward for The Surgeon Generals Office in DC during The Civil War.
He wrote The Army's Surgeons Manual. You can buy it on line.
But since you're so dismissive of modern medicine and it's practitioners perhaps you can blaze new trails in the relief of the sick and healing of the afflicted.
Let us test your honesty. Where these the drugs and treatments you had in mine when you asked me if I was off my "meds"?
