I absolutely agree. There was the time, my friends thought I was crazy or exaggerating. Now I can send them links. I was lucky to some degree. I was supposed to have surgery and while prepped for surgery (after having had many blood tests) the surgeon looked me in the eye an said his gut told him he could not do this surgery. He conference called a bunch of doctors and sent me to a top Hematologist. The hematologist discovered my blood had like ZERO ability to clot. I looked like a badly bruised banana. I was 18, and with no parents. I got scared out of trusting doctors. A litle while after I fell on ice and had one very BLUE knee. The doctor told me to take aspirin. I asked if she was "literate"...it said "NO ASA" in flourescent letters on my file. She was offended. LOL. I resorted to natural medicine. But now that I am at an age I think about having children, and live a hectic professional life, and now living in the UK with amazing healthcare...I often think about going back to the allopathic world. Again...thank you for the info! Every bit of info I find makes me feel happier.
