What's what in medicine?

Posted 04-21-2015 at 04:27 AM by Fortoggie


This morning on CBS, Dr. Holly Phillips created doubt and fear concerning Homeopathic Medicines. Clearly she didn't know what she was talking about by saying that they are untested and could be dangerous. Homeopathic Medicine has a 200 year old history and fewer people have had reactions from them than they have from strawberries.
I took my training many years ago from a French Doctor and from his associates and have yet to see a negative reaction.
By contrast there is no doubt that prescription medicines are dangerous; all you have to do is read their own printed literature. The government and the AMA itself puts out data every year and its not pretty.
Now that I am 80 and have had heart valve failure I decided to follow the doctors prescriptions to the letter. For one thing the nurses bring a cup of pills and stand there and watch you take them. Another thing is that my family watches me like a hawk, " be sure and take all your medicine " so what the heck, I'm old enough to die and people expect an 80 year old man to walk around in a daze. I feel like I am playing Russian Roulette. I have cheated once. For two weeks I could get only about two hours sleep per night so I slipped in some Homeopathic medicine to gain an hour or two and now I'm up to 6 or so. The confusion goes on!

    I agree homeopathic medicine is great and practiced in Germany by most doctors, I myself have chosen it first and now I'm having to take prescription and I can feel the side effects ,bit after a transplant I have no choice. Wonder sometimes how that's gonna go for the long run.
