Oh shit...

Had me in the first half, not gon' lie

 

I don't go in for anything but that's due to the mentality my Pop's had. I also don't get sick and I work in drug development. It's all money making first and human health second or third.

 

I feel like this is especially prevalent in psychiatry, so many psychiatrists just want to give you the newest pill they've been lobbied into pushing onto their patients with $ bonuses and cruise vacations

I think it's pretty fucked up that drug companies are even allowed to advertise their medications on TV like some kind of new tech you've just got to have

 

I've had prescriptions cancelled due to cancer causing ingredients used in their manufacture.
Now Statins have me concerned due to their side effects.

 

Share holders drive drug development.

 

yeah the whole system is fucked. But that's nothing new lol.

Crazy Russians

 

That should be a show

 

I should carry an AK with me every I go.

 

So when they do a blood test for a specific type of cancer does it show any type of cancer?

Or is it specific testing for each type

 

Don't use pizza cutters and this wouldn't happen

 

Last blood test I had was a bunch of peramiters and made no sense. I made all the normal base lines but none of it made any sense.

 

I should get a Jeep and some angry eyes too

 

for which one? Prostate they test ur PSA, which if the level goes up it indicates enlargement (could be enlarged from cancer) .


cologuard (testing for blood or cancer antigens in stool) will only be a positive or negative test, if you end up positive, you need to do a colonoscopy anyways to rule out cancer. Could be a false positive from bleeding hemorrhoids, which is why its better to just get the colonoscopy done at the beginning

 

I wouldnt be worried about statins. Plaque burden is much worse than possible muscle aches.
