anyone know about medical stuff?

[LuxLuthor]

Would it be presumptuous to state that someone who claims to be a student of science must, in fact, be ready to accept and pursue outliers if the logic or evidence behind those outliers is sound?

In short, the "well the vast majority" defense for failure should only apply to manufacturing and mass production, NOT to individualized healthcare.

You misinterpreted what I am saying. There are patients who are counterproductive with medical providers. The classic case is someone coming in who is mildly overweight saying “Why haven’t you started me on Wegovy because I saw that fat lady stepping in quicksand who said it helps?”

The other thing to keep in mind that I would estimate less than 1 in ten thousand patients has a sufficient understanding of the intricate medical complexities of their case to pretend they know the best answers from research they did.

They lack the complete medical education from 4 years of medical school and another 3-8 years of residency and subspecialty training plus the years of seeing a diversity of patients, discussing cases with peers, reading journals, CME classes, etc.

Please understand i dont have a doctor its a fancy nurse i forget what they call her. Ps thru google i found my issue its soda pop
I always thought only faty food from meat raised it. I drink popway to much tried to quit many times. But this is a incentive for sure
Far as thyroid i was close on med adjustment 50 mg will be what she switches to me i bet.. im hopeing are town grows and a real doctor moves here

I 100% guarantee that your medical & psychiatric situation is far beyond a soda pop solution.

If one purchases soda pop, one must overcome temptation many times a day.

If one doesn't purchase soda pop, one only has to overcome temptation once a week at the store.

I get it, snake oil and rubbing dirt in wounds etc...sure, standards are standard, but by definition, besides extreme chemistry and physics, not every human is "standard"...

I'm curious though, besides the pharmaceutical aspect of modern medicine, what is the most important thing you have learned from your career?

Having standards are but guideposts on a journey of discovery. Frequently in medicine you never what you are going to get.

Oh that's an easy one. Listening to the patient.

Often there are things even beyond their words that they cannot yet verbalize. You only discover that by really listening, and you can tell if you got to the heart of their issue. It takes a good while and lots of compassion to develop that skill, while knowing this is a practice…so there's always more "East" to go.

Life is too short to waste, but is too long to suffer through. Stop wasting time suffering! Unless that's your thing, you leather wearing spandex stretching ballgag chomping hedonist! You put the M in bdsm...or maybe, you prefer to put the m in you...😅

Thyroid has two issues, hypothyroidism and hyperthyroidism. Interestingly they both can lead to similar symptoms as experienced.

He’s not my patient. He might be a nice guy in person, but who knows? His writing here indicates only a grade school education and significant psychiatric pathology.

People giving him PhD level & detailed feedback is a colossal waste of time.

Not accurate at all. Also there are many other diseases of the thyroid.

I meant for me, because humans have a history of deeyahbitteez, and I'm human, and my dowsing rods tell my my iron and water levels are perpetually low.
