Samples

[BugSick]

Isn't the medical community based on SAMPLES......

Blood SAMPLES
Urine SAMPLES
Hair SAMPLES
Tissue SAMPLES
Salava SAMPLES

BUT

When Morgellons infected bring in their Skin SAMPLES we are deemed CRAZY and DELUSIONAL.....because we brought in SAMPLES for examination......

WHO's the CRAZIES......NOT the infected

[ladycolorado]

the problem is bugsick, not doing proper tests either. is one going to find anything wrong if one has lymes disease if not properly tested? of course, many medical folk merely parrot dop, as told to in medical school and and educated with outdated information. of course those arrogant too, will not even look at you when provide samples, they call it the maqtchbox sign of dop, (LC).

Sounds like....

These medical universities need to clean house.....

rid themselves of the outdated professors teaching this crap to our up and coming doctors.....for they are the delusional ones......or has medicine declined so badly that our doctors are not allowed to think for themselves anymore....just a bunch of sheep with by the book only.....that is NOT medicine that is filling prescriptions and ordering more presciption pads....

Our pharmaceuticals run our medical.....not the other way around...SAD....even when a certain medication is proven harmfull it remains in the market to inflict its misery on more unsuspecting indiviuals....GREED I say GREED runs the pharmaceuticals so there we have it....our medical system in a nut shell

Our whole medical system is corrupt and inept! And unfortunately doesn't seem like it will be changing anytime soon. This is why more and more Americans are looking for help abroad.

Right on Franky!
I wrote my Fabry specialists Physician;'s asst a blazing email telling him what I thought of the no-brainer derm docs at the University of Iowa. I read it to Suzzie.
After being made to feel terrible by the U of I derms I refused to go back and my specialist went to the Head of the dept and I guess gave her what for. She then agreed to see me herself. My specialist watched me go through IV infusions every 2 weeks for 6 months- a 3 hour trip each way to get it. He knew I was not a nut case and had also seen the blood work and medical records that told something was wrong. However, like I told the PA, to much damage and water under the bridge. (After about 6 trips, hotels, 5-6 hour drives, etc only to be talked to rudely and diagnosed as a fruitcake despite them never having taken a sample, biopsy or using a woods lamp.)
They have made me leary of ALL doctors and even the whole U of Iowa because of THEM. I told hin the derms gave the whole U of I a black eye.
I told him I would not refer any more of the Fabry pts to derm unless they are prepared to have them become alienated or cop an attitude.
Yes, the money they demand for PRACTICING medicine. I am going to homeopaths or naturopaths. If I could get away from all MD's i would, but the Fabry forces me to have to deal with them.

[color=purple][left]You are right BugSick. Why in the world are these professors teaching their medical students that if a patient brings in a sample, they are delusional? They should be teaching these medical students to ask themselves if they have done their job correctly when someone they are seeing feels the need to bring in their own sample.

You called it right here BS!

If you saw my post about a very poor dermatologist in a large NYC hospital, I could not agree more. There are clearly some tie-ins with CFS and our own symptoms. Why is it that one must assume when we do our homework and provide samples of very unusual objects emerging from our skin including leaf galls with pyemotes mites, celluose triethelome plant fibers, strange mucosal polyps and cysts, why does this make us more delusional? Here we have something visibly unusal happening to people! Before I experienced very rapid alopecia and scalp ulceration, a year ago, why did my derm find himself unusual black objects, only to tell me b/c the lab could determine the source, come back with a diagnosis of compulsive hair pulling and alopecia areata...When a punch biopsy he failed to perform, not support that.

How much more obvious could one's illness be...To have a cloud of itchy tree dust emerge from me like pig-pen...only to be sent away with no further work up and a recommendation for antipsychotic medication.

Yes many in the medical community have failed us. Know that this too will NOT CONTINUE forever.
