PA,

I appreciate your caring about me, hunky. I do read everything.

The risk of really bad things happening is really small.

For me, the risk of bad things happening if I get the flu is greater than normal. That is the only reason I would get the flu shot.

I will weigh the risk of bad stuff to bad stuff and discuss it with my doctor, who I have had for 8 years.




Then you are further ahead then many- who do not.

I thought long and hard and did alot of reading on the hep vax series of 3 shots.   In the end- I did get that vax.    So- I am not automatically against vaxs.

I beleive in actively participating in my medical treatment.   Even if I think I know- I will look up the meds.    My DR is pretty cool with that.   He has a very good bedside manner.

When I have steroids injected into my back- they did way too many.   32 of them.   This does not count the cortisone and carpal tunnel injections. 

So- from that point on- I was more careful.

Dont judge me because I sin differently than you.
If you want it sugar coated, dont ask me what i think! It would violate TOS.

Tazz- the industry is a for profit industry.      Can you see that?

Each pill, shot- or treatment sold- means profit to the stockholders.  By its very design- the idea is to sell the most rxs at the highest possible price.  The model is not curing people- it is maximizing corporate profits.

So yes- I blame the system.

The system isnt the problem. Many medications have a history from herbal remedies and healers who had no interest in corporate greed.

How long would a drug be profitable that doesnt perform?
