Absolutely upstream... there are many facets to this issue.... many problems that exist. Some are doctors stepping outside there professional bounds of knowledge and attempting to know everything so they don't look silly to their patient, instead of just saying, "I don't know but will get back to you." Some is pharmacology releasing false and misleading facts about a medication. Some is the makers hiding aspects that they are aware and just not releasing those facts period. There are many attributes, and by far when I say that all doctors are not created equal.... I mean that, though it I never intend for it to be taken exclusively.... though with commonsense applied.
Physicians work typically on their limited experience scope. I say limited because genetics are at play here. Like anyone, a doctor is human, and they find something they like and that is all they prescribe as a first line of defence. Many issues, many factors.... many valid points and commonsense must be applied. |
