I wish I had as much faith in doctors as Racer does. I've had a couple good GPs, a couple nurse practitioners, an integrative doctor, a naturopath, and at last count about 8 psychiatrists. Guess what, they all had a different diagnosis. They all knew very little about drug interactions. It was usually me that made safer more effective decisions for myself. I used to think of doctors as Gods. Except maybe for a few special ones, or ones located at research universities, I do not trust doctors. That is not just a whimsy opinion, it is based on a couple decades of observing how they operate and perform. It is also observed by the number of people at babble.
For those with good doctors, I am pleased. The people I have really seen get excellent healing, whether it be from candida, depression, anxiety, allergies, diabetes, whatever...they all had something in common...it wasn't a good doctor, but rather their own ownership and decision making in their own health backed by lots of research and learning.
