No, No, No, No, No
Is this a true story? Did you lose your son? 😢

Yeah. Two weeks ago tomorrow. He's been sick forever, like 18 years, but I had no idea I would be losing him. When he went, he went fast. Brutal. Still. Actually worse today. Idk why I wrote today, but that prompt...
I thought "well look who's here" when I saw your handle. I've missed you! Place is not the same these days.
Thanks for the love. back atcha
18 years!! What illness did he have? I'm so sorry! And that is inadequate, there are no words.
Iatrogenic disease caused by the medications used to treat his supposed Crohn's disease. I believe he did not have crohn's at all, but rather a tick born disease, Bartonella. If I am right, then all the meds used to treat him, especially the prednisone, only aggravated his true illness. Once a patient has a diagnosis, however, no other possibilities are even considered, certainly not tick born. His medical care was a shit show from day one. Extremely traumatic for the entire family. He and I were both treated like lunatics. I stay away from those quacks now. First they guess about what the problem is, then they guess about what will fix it. They are incapable of reflection. Maybe it has not always been this way, but it is now.
I wish more people would realise this before they get shafted.
Doctors are not scientists - they are drug dealers.
And as you found out, is very hard to change a diagnosis - even a mis-diagnosis. Some years ago, I ended up seeing a consultant in London - seeing someone higher up the food chain DID change the diagnosis - funnily it changed from "X" to "don't know", but at least came off the toxic meds!
Sorry for your loss, especially after such a long time.
Only one of my three kids escaped being poisoned. My regrets almost all involve trust I put in doctors and other "experts." We need to remember, not learn or be taught, how to think for ourselves. We are untaught how to connect the dots.
yeah, we discussed this before. I suspect it is harder to now carry the burden of knowing, rather than those who remain convinced in their ignorance. The literature on potentially undoing the harm is fragmented (on purpose). Depending on age, fasting is a strange but potentially helpful protocol - just have to be very careful if fat-soluble toxins are released, so would really need to sit down and go through the side-effects; sometimes is not a side-effect of the lack of food but those dormant toxins being released as part of the detox! oh the horrible irony.
You mentioned prednisone - nobody should be on that long term. It was the first thing my doc took me OFF, as he said it wasn't good beyond emergency use - and that was just 2 months, if i recall.
He's the only doctor I've found here who knows what he's doing. Yes, he prescribes drugs, but is extremely careful as most of his patients come with symptoms of drug-reactions from other less-careful "doctors".
Just to add, I'm still researching the epigenetic damage done to me by drugs - maybe have a fresh delve every 6 months - I've even hit paywall-dirt, knowledge hidden behind paid databases. But I have found info that my doc agreed could be true - the only problem is that even knowing that there is still no known antidote to reverse the damage.
My son was on it from age 8 to age 16. His pediatric gastroenterologist was the head of pediatric gastroenteroloy of Tisch/NYU, a very big honcho. I trusted him to know how much was too much. The fact is, he did know my son had taken too much but, as a special needs patient to begin with (vaccine injury likely), my son was given subpar care. I believe this effect is eugenics.
I'm glad you've found a doctor who does not overprescribe. The older doctors are much better, but they are dying off or getting too sick to work (via age and/or lethal injection) in droves now. I have ceased going to those quacks altogether for myself. Their standard diagnostic tests alone can kill you.
