My COVID confrontation with my doctor
American Thinker ^ | 24 Feb, 2023 | Mark Landsbaum

Posted on 02/24/2023 7:06:21 PM PST by MtnClimber

We had breakfast together this morning, so I had an opportunity to tell several brothers from church how grateful I am that I finally saw my doctor, after intentionally avoiding him for three years because of COVID. After a Christmas visit to the local emergency room for an incessant cough from bronchitis, the E.R. doc told me to follow up with my personal doctor. I sighed, deeply.

Then I immediately began rehearsing my talking points about COVID, the vaccine, and the COVID medical establishment that has run — and ruined — everything for three years.

But my personal doctor had to cancel two appointments with me in the past month because he was ill. So the first thing I asked him when we finally got together last week was whether he was OK. He said yeah. He said he had had COVID but recovered.

My doctor said he was vaccinated before catching COVID.

He asked me whether I have had COVID. "No." Then he asked me if I had been vaccinated. "No." Then he asked me if I wanted to be vaccinated. I said, "Don't get me started." He said he wouldn't.

He also said he hadn't wanted to be vaccinated, "but they made me."

I explained to the guys at breakfast this morning that I had avoided my doctor to avoid arguing with him about COVID. He's a good doctor, and my wife and I like him and didn't want to anger him.

One of my buddies at breakfast was flabbergasted. "Since when do you worry about angering anybody?"

I sheepishly answered to this effect: "When somebody potentially can determine matters of life and death for me." Nods all around the table followed.

I was pretty certain my doctor, bless his heart, would try to coerce me

My Endocrinologist, who also served as my Family Doctor retired in December. He asked me once if I’d gotten the shots, and I told him “no.” He asked me why, so I ran through a list of reasons. He never broached the topic again. I tested positive for Covid twice last year from rapid tests I had to take prior to scheduled procedures. The first time was the end of April, the second in mid-November. I had no symptoms whatsoever either time. Nothing.

My doc had covid twice. Nurse had it once.

Both vaccinated.

Common story isn’t it?

Do you Rx Ivm for your patients?

They’re lucky to have docs who will.

My former Doctor I had gone to for 20 years had a terrible attitude on Covid and treatment, He believed in the vaccines and would not even consider other treatments like Ivermectin or HCQ. So I fired him and got a new doctor who is much more open minded.

Whatever happened to Gas Doctor and Entropy12, lord they were the biggest cheerleaders for the Vaccines and bragged all over the place about them.

Haven’t seen a post from Gas Doctor in ages, wonder if finally got it or God forbid died from the vaccines.

A lady at our church has been down with terrible vertigo for some time. She and her husband were all on board with masks so I’m sure she got the experimental shot. Figured vertigo was secondary to the jab but didn’t want to ask. They would not admit to it anyway. True believers in gov propaganda.

Neither my wife nor I are vaccinated. Nor will we ever be. We’re late 60s - early 70s. We both caught covid in September of 21. Both of our previous docs were big pharma whores and mask Nazis. We share our new doc and she is none of the things our previous docs were. There are some good ones out there still.

I worked in a teaching hospital in my 20s and saw many mistakes made there. Medical mistakes are one of the leading causes of death in the U.S. And that was back when a patient’s family mattered.

The best thing you can do is have a distant relative act as your advocate with hospital staff. Not immediate family because they will be too emotional. Pick a cousin, niece, or nephew who is honorable, assertive, and not awed by doctors and nurses. That person should fight for your wishes.

Although with the way hospital staff act now, like they own your body and know better than any of your relatives, you may need someone who is also a lawyer!

Now is the time to find a good doctor who sees things your way. Here is a good place to start:

These brave doctors risked everything for the good of their patients.

He’s still around - I saw him arguing on another thread a couple of days ago.

I had a long discussion with my primary doctor about this. He admitted he had to get vaccinated and can’t discuss certain things or he could lose his license.

I’ve told him the truth. I may have gotten it in the early months of 2020 (I had a fever and chills for four days, that was it) and I have not been sick with anything at all since then. I am unvaccinated (from SARS-CoV-2) and always will be. That means if I leave the USA I can’t get back in but so be it.

Still waiting for the medical industrial complex to stop being mask obsessed.

I have not gotten any of the Covid-19 jabs. My doctor at the VA said I needed to get one. Told her I had read the science, and that the jabs are both insane and provided no protection for me or anyone else with whom I would be in contact.

My MD Anderson oncologist asked me if I wanted the jab. Told him Andy Nurse Practioner I had read the research, and that the “vaccines” are dangerous and ineffective.

They are awesome and made no effort to convince me. I love them.

Everyone at the VA where I go are over that barrel, being directly employed by the government and all. I got the first jabs of Moderna two years ago just before the negative reports started here on Free Republic. No effects on me - which is probably due to having had pneumonia so often with the naturally developed antibody resistance. Haven't had a cold in years, either. Thanks to God.

Got the Shingles shot during my last visit (now I can finish that roof repair!) and the tech asked if I wanted the COVID booster. I said I'll wait until they come up with a real vaccine. As he turned away I heard him say "Got that right."

Same here. My cousin, double injected, recently had a nasty case of Covid as did his triple-injected wife and his triple injected mother (my aunt). My uncle, triple-injected, had Covid last summer. I talked him out of a fourth injection. His girlfriend, four times injected, had a nasty bout of Covid last summer. His lady friend, four-times injected, had Covid recently. My mother-in-law, four times injected, has not had a healthy day since shortly after her third injection. Constantly ill now, with flu-like symptoms and difficulty breathing.At one point she thought she was going to die from not being able to breath. Healthy as an ox before the third hit. My wife and I, never injected with the vile, useless poison, have not gotten Covid.

. . . . My pastor has battling Covid for 2 weeks. He’s been on the booster schedule.

I found an amazing GP on that list, both doc and NP there are great. I wouldn’t be surprised if the NP was here on FR too. They aren’t functional med docs, but they do combine a lot of traditional med with diet and supplements. That’s rare these days.

My last visit I asked why they weren’t on the FLCCC list anymore and I was told that they were overwhelmed with new patient requests and they were already booked out a year. It’s a small town practice so they can only do so much. A lot of folks coming to them now are for post vax protocols.

Very true but also failure to plan. You have to stay on top of Covid. I think relying solely on the vaccine is a big mistake.
