Pie, if your patients ever ask you about homeopathic remedies, you should say, "You know, I found a really good site with all sorts of information about homeopathy! I'll write the address down for you."
Then send them there. :p |

we will all die in due course
our choices fast forward the inevitable or slow it down
in the end though we will all die in due course
as our sudden rush of ego wants to live
the reality of this life will soon give
we will all die in due course
fast forward, rewind, unwind the transgression of the times
for our choices were ours and ours alone |

Such a great post.
Goes to show you that no one is always smarter or more knowledgeable than the other. Always collaborate and forget your ego!
I wish him well. :) |

In my opinion it is the responsibility of the "medical expert" to be sufficiently educated in most (if not all) symptoms and accompanying treatment regimens, whether it be alternative or conventional, in their particular specialty.
Zev Eisenberg concluded that his physicians had limited the scope of their knowledge to medical textbooks and published findings and approved protocols and treatments by agencies including, but not limited to, the Food and Drug Administration.
There is a reasonable percentage of the population (I won't say significant as I don't have any scientific data to support such an assertion) who are skeptical of the relationship between pharmaceutical companies, physicians, and government agencies which approve medications and medical treatments.
Zev Eisenberg determined that it was in his best interest to forgo the recommendations of his physicians at Sloan Kettering, which included but were not limited to extensive, expensive schedules of chemotherapies and surgeries, in exchange for a natural-based approach.
In his mind, he was making the "right" choice. Empirical evidence suggests that natural diets and the elimination of particular items from one's diet can balance in the body in a manner which retards the growth of cancerous cells. It seems he was right.
I personally know of two other people who have made such choices, one of whom was diagnosed with terminal brain cancer and is now in remission. Both of them are, for all scientific intents and purposes, cancer-free.
I applaud Zev Eisenberg for his decision. Not everyone is capable of and/or willing to make such a choice, but this just shows that by taking time to educate yourself beyond what your licensed physician might suggest, it can save your life. |

One of the really moronic things about this is that the guy remarks that cancer feeds on sugar, then says he is on a vegetarian diet -- in which most of the calories will come from various sugars, of course.
:stongue:
Does not compute. |

| Right, there's that. He would have done himself a favor to suggest that drinking soda is bad due to its acidic nature and excessive empty calorie content. But hey, you win some, you lose some. |

Doctor: "You're going to die unless you have this transplant surgery to replace your lung"
Patient: "Well I'm going to have to decline. It seems to me that a lung is basically just a balloon, so could you just replace it with a balloon instead?" |

I believe he was talking about how he ate an apple an decided not to eat donuts. Fructose does not equal to Sucrose or Glucose. I also don't get your comment about vegetarians, what diet makes you consume more sugar? |
