Okay, I agree with the scientific method..and the fact that one goes

through that process is a good one..which I am saying needs to be

done, apparently, thousands upon thousands of times.

I just wish that we could get some certain facts on CFS/ME..It seems

that there are numerous opinions.

I had a college professor who said DO NOT ASSUME, ANYTHING, or else

it makes a you know what out of you and me.

There's a very big difference when talking about the " public's "

health and an " individual's " health.

Dr.s diagnose and prescribe by a sanctioned and accepted methodoly

by a high body which operates in the 'public's' best interest... not

the individuals..

MDs are not critical thinkers. They aren't taught to be in Medical

school. And most of them can only operate on " if " statments (i.e. if

this happenes, then I do this.. if that happens, then I do that)

and are at a loss if a patients symptoms don't fit some nice pat

criteria.

They are not researchers either.

In my business, high level technicians are better at problem solving

and applications than most MDs I know..

It the way the business (medical profession) is these days..

They've fallen from grace as 'gods' to about the level of a sub

standard Vet

(I make a slight exception for surgeons though- a good one is a

skilled mechanic)

AND our diseases are WAY OUT OF THEIR BOX..

and I cannot inform any doctors...with the research, as they cannot

learn anything New..or anything controversial...without incorrect

assumptions..and conclusions...

So, I guess THAT MY BOX WILL NOT BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH their

BOX.

I am in a literal and virtual quagmire.

As a newbie, could you inform me as to what type medical professional

you are? My doc can't help me, apparently!

Thanks!!!
