What do most doctors know about health? All they know is to give you more pills...and I think all these meds are making this country sicker and sicker. When was the last time a doctor gave you some good health advice..never would be my answer. We don't need more drugs we need better doctors. Doctoring today is cook book medicine. You give the doctor your symptom and he will find a drug for it. How about suggesting lifestyle changes and diet changes and vitamins.

I've often wondered about these multiple prescriptions. I've seen some real horror stories especially with psychiatric drugs. One drug causes side effects and then another is prescribes. All cause problems with brain chemistry. Before you know it, the patient is receiving a whole cocktail of medications. Excellent post on our need for a really comprehensive health insurance program.
