    negligent?! how many times are we told to take medicine a certain way? or restricted to take with food or no alcohol? how many folks do abide with the statements? how many actually read the bottle? or for that matter, what happened with the pharmicists? is it not his responsibility as well, to let u know? does he not side with the drug industry in letting you know the effects or at least give you a brochure or tell you to read the bottle? here’s the problem: many times we are given things and take them for granted instead of doing our own research or even read the very prescription or bottle. how come we try to pin the responsibility onto the doctor, whom in his own right, is trying his best to make you better. but with anything or any treatment, there are always side effects. not everyone is affected the same way.

    breast cancer! there is a solution. someone found the answer but not in a bottle or pill or radiation. there is a book that was written about various home remedies including a cure for breast cancer. but, we the have the audacity in this country that it has be something approved so that the drug manufacturing company can make money.

    again, i think sometimes we go to far and create lawsuits and then the lawyers jump quickly — to get their portion and you wonder whom is getting richer?!

    Hey WC – I couldn’t agree more. People are like sheep – they are told to take something and don’t have the brains to do the research.

    No one died from a hot flash – it’s part of life – if it is that unbearable then get a grip – Why take something to supress a natural progression of age? Are we that despirate to be “perfect”? So you feel like you want to run out of the building with your hair on fire… It only lasts a few minutes (yes, it feels like hours..) and a few years… What would you rather have – climate control or cancer…

    And yes… I speak from experience.

    I had been involved w/ many allegations of this sort during my med-mal years – junk science rules – hormone replacement therapy doesn’t GIVE anyone cancer – it will make it grow faster if one does contract same….so….if the clmts had done the recommended monthly self-exams, it CA would have been identified early from which the ‘cure rate’ is about 95% these days
