The C0vid mess pointed out the insane protocols doctors are forced to use.
There is a protocol for just about everything, not allowing doctors to be doctors.
Sort of like the hospital scene in "Idiocracy".
Without a doubt. I'm due for a colonoscopy, but damn if I feel like going ahead with it. Simply don't trust what they may do to me, especially while I'm out.
I've noticed this, without question, as have my relatives.
Nowadays, they don't really care what you tell them verbally, they just want to run a bunch of tests.
Then when the get the results, they just want to perscribe whatever their cheat sheet tells them should be prescribed.
Then goodbye, unless that doesn't fix it, then come back in for some more, higher costing tests.
Once those results are in, time for higher costing meds.
Vitamins, minerals, diets, etc, are not allowed to be discussed as a possible solution to anything.
