You just refuse to listen. I NEVER said that ALL doctors are bad, based on my expereince. So you can quit perpetrating that lie now! What I've been trying to get across forever here, is that people would be wise to look out for their own best interests, and not just automatically assume that doctors always know everything, and never make mistakes. . You refuse to learn that lesson, so you're hopelessly clueless anyhow.
Yet again with the insults.
And again, I am not refusing to listen, that is YOU. There are medical professionals ON THIS VERY BOARD who are telling you you're wrong. Yes, bad things happen sometimes in medicine but that is not indicative of the industry as a whole. Not by a long shot.
I have stated my credentials to qualify my statements here. You have yet to state yours, aside from having a bad hospital experience once. You are not in a position to be advising anyone on anything related to medicine, so you need to stop now before somebody actually listens to you and gets themselves killed by not listening to a doctor when they are told they have diabetes. It is not a massive conspiracy, it's not even a minor conspiracy, blood glucose levels speak for themselves, regardless of the mechanism that causes them to be high, and despite any kind of medication that can be given to counteract the high levels, and who may have prescribed or developed that medication.

End of story.
You're beating your head agianst a brick wall here, but I applaud your efforts.

LOL Yeah, I realize that. It's the same way anytime I interact with this particular poster. But now I'm PO-ed b/c she is saying things that can be detrimental to one's health if they are taken as fact, and that is not okay with me. I wish the mods would close the thread already. Or delete it altogether seeing as how it has over 3000 views.
That's pretty normal. If a GP can't dx you, it's their duty to refer you to a specialist. Or you can self-refer if you have a PPO.
That is fine, but to have the old GP standby thrown in your face "psychogenic" when you have breathing problems from Valley fever or burning pain from neuropathy.....that is pathetic........that is my experience with GP boobs....most of them seem incompetent.
As has been evidenced by my hundreds of previous comments on the race threads, I have nothing to fear, and to suggest such is offensive. You didn't need to bring race into it, period.
With that being said, I AM RESPECTFULLY ASKING THAT THE MODS CLOSE THIS DISCUSSION SINCE ARTWOMYN IS NOW TURNING IT INTO A FORUM FOR RANTING, INSULTING, AND INSINUATING THAT OTHERS ARE RACIST, BONEHEADS, IGNORANT, UNINFORMED, ETC., NOT TO MENTION THAT SHE IS SPEWING LIES AND MISINFORMATION THAT CAN ACTUALLY BE DANGEROUS TO OTHERS.
Wow, way to try to stifle free speech. If you are getting your feelings hurt.....well, just leave the thread.
I know that many of you white posters are scared silly, when it comes to race topics
I would like you or any other of your comrades in this thread that have the courage, brains, or both, to specifically describe how this manifests and what the consequences are. I'm very curious.
I've never said that this is a 'mass conspiracy'. That's your assumption, because you can't get what I'm saying. I've also said many times, that the problems within the healthcare industry, go way beyond diabetes. It doesn't take a rocket scientist, to figue out that the big pharma companies, are only too happy, to encourage doctors to push their medications for big profits. That's not a 'conspiracy', that's fact of life in the pharma industry!
According to your thread title, there would have to be a conspiracy in order for physicians to knowingly perscribe diabetic medication to patients who they know do not have diabetes as you say that the epidemic does not exist. You fail to back up the thread title and provide facts that prove your assumption.
