Question

I dunno, I kind of agree with KSig RC on this one...

Dude HAD a second test ran on him, but the results were NEVER shared with him...

The article sez the Dr. said he was sorry... I can understand why "sorry" doesn't cut it after 8 years of being jacked up with "protease inhibitors"--aside from the fact that these drugs have secondary effects--such as cardiotoxicity...

So dude may not die of AIDS or cancer--which an HIV infection can cause--but will probably have cardiac hypertrophy that was built up over the years--and forget what these drugs did to his liver... But he won't get Alzheimer's--maybe... Who knows?

I say he get FREE medical healthcare for the rest of his life with full perscription coverage!!!

As far as medical doctor's fcukin' up with medical records--

An informed patient is a good patient...

In fact, I ask to see the results and ask them how they did the tests... They bullisht with me, they are asking for trouble... Because, I will order the DAYUM test kit myself and do it myself...

The other issue is, the "normal range" and "limits"... For many an HMO and VA--a patient can only present waaay below or waaay above the "standard range" that for whatever ails them... The standard was set ~50 years ago--research has advanced light years from that time. So what the "standard" is, is anybody's guess...

And with Single Nucleotide Polymorphic markers coming into play with pharmacogenetics and Big Pharma, it will make a confounding situation with folks...

Why cain't we cure nuthin' no mo'?
