That is a big problem for sure. We live in an over-medicated world, but you know what the REAL problems is?

They only treat the SYMPTOMS instead of the CONDITION. Why? So you become a repeat customer. There is no money in treating/curing a condition.



Another big problem I have is that I rarely go to the doctor. The last time I went was in 2002 or 2003. But on the few times I DO go and have to have some test run ohave to go into the hospital for somethin, without fail the insurance company doesn't want to pay out for whatever reason. I mean, what was the point of giving you all that money over the years, THAT I NEVER USED, which could have paid 10 times over the charges they are disputing. It is a scam, just like auto insurance.
