In reply to Pharmacist today said my brain damaged no repairin, posted by Phillipa on December 1, 2010, at 20:56:40
Phillipa, here's a little homework assignment. Go back to the pharmacist and with a polite curious smile on your face ask him/her politely:
1. What part of my brain is damaged? Be specific. It matters. I mean, are we talking tissue, neurons, receptors, dendrites, fatty tissue, left side, right side, prefrontal cortex, blood vessels, ??? If he/she KNOWS it's damaged than obviously he/she knows WHAT is damaged right? Otherwise such a statement could never be made.
2. How was it damaged? By what mechanism? Which drug did it? How?
3. Why is it not repairable?
4. Why is it that a stroke victim can regain brain activity that was damaged, but you can't?
5. How does the pharmacist differentiate between damage that was done from disease/genetics versus damage done from meds? That would be good to know, because then you finally know for sure what disease you had! Finally!
6. How could anybody possibly get to 65 years with so much unrepairable damage going on their entire life?
So basically, we need more details for such a blanket statement....WHAT, WHEN, WHY, WHERE, and HOW. If he/she knows so much, it should be easy. If not, you are going to get a bunch of "well", "ahh", "we aren't sure but" , and such.
All that said, the human brain begins to deteriorate the day we are born. His/hers apparently has deteriorated much faster than yours and at a younger age....without even any meds to do it!
