Sounds like our local clinic here.  The doctors are actually paid by a per 
patient $$ amount.  The more they see, the more $$ they make.  Pretty sick!!  
I haven't gone back for quite some time since the last fiasco where the jerk 
had the nerve to stand in the room with me with one hand on the door knob the 
whole time.  I was so ticked off.  He kept huffing everytime I had the nerve 
to ask him a question.  I had the urge to choke him.  Pictured myself with my 
hands on his throat.  Not good.  But just makes me so angry to be treated 
that way.

 Sounds to me like a doctor shifting the blame from the ABX he prescribed. If 
this woman read the full FDA-mandated "labels" (sometimes they're more like 
books) on the drugs she took, chances are she'll find liver damage listed as 
a side effect on one or more. If she switched to CS from ABX and/or left a 
doctor's care (spelled receivables account), it's quite likely the MD (Money 
Doctor) would blame the CS for her later-discovered liver damage. Even if she 
only used CS supplementally, an MD is likely to blame whatever the patient 
did that wasn't by his instruction for any mishap that could have been caused 
by his actions. I have know many MDs and was once married to a very smart 
nurse, and in my experience MDs use the scientific method about as rigorously 
as your average 7-11 clerk. The few I have known who were scientific and 
logical in their approach were also those most interested in healing their 
patients and least interested in making money; also least likely to recommend 
or prescribe anything potentially damaging. One ear-ear-nose-throat 
specialist I once saw, who was also a plastic surgeon and head/neck cancer 
specialist, would not prescribe any antibiotic until he had a culture back 
from the lab and knew exactly what he was trying to eradicate. I once had a 
blocked eustachian tube that had filled my middle ear with mucus so that I 
was deaf in that ear for a month before I went to this doctor. He put an air 
tube up my nostril, closed the other, and told me to say K-K-K-K and... POP! 
the ear cleared. Then he told me to take Sudafed and use Afrin nasal spray 
(no antihistamines) for a couple of weeks until everything was drained, and 
showed me how to do the K-K-K-K trick myself. He gave me no ABX, and I never 
had to go back to him. Unfortunately, he is rare.

  Most doctors make snap judgments and follow routines based on what they did 
the last time, which was based on what a drug salesman told him. He's in such 
a hurry to make money that he never really listens to a patient, but hustles 
them in and out as fast as possible. He keeps the waiting room full with 
overbooked appointments to make the patients feel the urgency for his hurry, 
to make it look like he's got to get to other patients because there are so 
many of them. In truth, he has overbooked in order to squeeze as many fees 
into ever hour as possible to drive up his hourly revenue so he can knock off 
his hospital rounds and still have time for golf, opera, gambling, or 
whatever his favorite pasttime is. 

  This stems from the method the AMA uses to screen med school applicants. 
They're chosen based on their academic overachievement, not their passion for 
science or their dedication to healing people. And they're motivated (mostly) 
by their desire for money and prestige, which fits right into the AMA 
criteria.

  I read somewhere that the AMA was founded by one doctor who used smear 
tactics to extort other doctors to join his organization, which is nothing 
more than a self-serving guild, like the masons or the plumbers, designed to 
limit competition and thus maximize per-member revenue. Anyone familiar with 
the story I'm recalling? I'd love to track it down and document it.

  What antibioitics did the woman use before she started silver?   Long term 
ABX have many damaging
  effects.   Also, lots of Lyme people are put on Diflucan or Niazoral for 
the yeast they get because of the 
  ABX, and both of those are severely toxic to the liver.
   
    Never heard of a problem with silver before.   Sounds like another scare 
tactic to me.

    Hello everyone!

    Personally "I" don't think this is possible or true but had to ask. Some 
woman in the Lyme ng told me that CS can cause liver damage. She claims her 
friend is near a liver translplant because of it. Is this at ALL possible???? 
I don't think so and think there must be something else her friend is taking 
that must have caused liver damage? Anyone know if there could be any truth 
to this or not???

    Thanks!
