The good old tried and tested remedies for a patient with the need for a total hip replacement was:
1. leeches
2. laudanum
3. permanent incapacitation in a bed, in a home for the disabled, until your bed sores caused your body to rot from the outside in and killed you in excruciating pain.
Thankfully, science has improved to correct that. And even more: science has improved on the treatments for hip replacements in the MANY years since you had YOURs done.
You're using this one incident in your life - albeit a very unfortunate one - to justify your hatred of facts.
We all get it. Facts don't matter, Science doesn't matter, valid, double-blind peer tested medical research doesn't matter. Big pharma only wants to keep you sick, doctors are all frauds, and grapeseed oil will cure all ills.
We get it.
Meanwhile - for the rest of the known world, there is science.
