Dont think my view of hospitals and traditional medicine will ever change, not after all I’ve seen in this arena. I’m the first to admit a good dose of penicillan can mean the difference between life and death, but the rest of this stuff is hogwash. Lincoln has had some intenstinal things going on with him. He was scoped last year and for the better part of the last year the doctor has had Don petrified with a myriad of frightening diseases. We left here last year with them all agreeing to pour Prevacid down him every day. You ever read the back of the box on that drug? We went round and round at my house. Finally, a few months in, while Don was traveling, I
stopped the Prevacid and altered his diet to the things it was clear to me caused him problems, and added a supplement which helped to push stuff down. Bingo. He began to thrive. Doctors wanted togo back in at the six month mark and I argued for a year, which is now. Doctor told Don after consulting with her colleagues she believes the dread marks she found in his intestines a year ago were likely caused by the Previcid, the very drug she prescribed.

This morning they will do a year check and it is my suspicion he will have a clean bill of health and then hopefully some peace for a while. Just such a bizarre way to approach patient healthcare.
