We’re living that right now. My wife was just diagnosed with breast cancer, stage 1.

We have a strong distrust of the medical establishment and are really stressing over who to trust.

Try the Musk AI program Grok. At a minimum it can help synthesize the research. It has helped me in numerous ways with health issues

Also get more than one opinion from Doctors. I recommend that with even the pathology report

Fauci?? How is this POS still breathing air? There should be international WANTED posters. The beagle treatment should be administered to the “doctor”.

I look for MDs who are older than me.

As a career nurse, I can tell you - categorically- to NOT trust anyone in the healthcare sector.

While there are still many that are trustworthy, the whole industry is focused on profit.

Then we’ve got medical ‘schools’ accepting unqualified people to keep their ‘virtue signaling’ up to par...

The medical industry is one of the few industries where the members get paid regardless of the outcome.

In addition, it's one that self-polices.

To make it even worse, they're usually paid by a third party which leads to a system rife with flawed treatments.

Thanks. She’s a great researcher. A friend just went through it (combination of medical and alternative treatment) and is a plethora of knowledge. They spent several hours talking the other day.

Thanks. As Christians we appreciate it.

“My wife was just diagnosed with breast cancer, stage 1.”

That happened to me in 2014. Single mastectomy, and all was fine — no chemo, etc.

I guess all you can do is pray that God sends you to the people who are trustworthy and outstanding in the field.

Now, for checkups (aside from mammograms), I don’t know whom to trust, either.

We’re pretty sure that will be her outcome as well.

“I look for MDs who are older than me.”

Good luck with that.

Thank Heaven for the newer imaging technologies that can identify minute anomalies! And I do mean, “thank Heaven”!

“While there are still many that are trustworthy, the whole industry is focused on profit.”

From the article: “Practicing medicine is no longer a calling or profession;”

I believe that is a major part of the problem. Other things outweigh the professional aspect.

Fauci’s motto is “trust me... or we will throw you in prison and destroy your business”

Always remember, any time you hear someone say “Trust Me”, it is a clue to do the exact opposite...you’re tipped off immediately.

How many of us miss Biden and his “true story” tales? Another tip off!!
