Mark:
Thanks for the refererences. I hear the balance in what you are saying
about "new medicine MDs'. I'll seek one out. However, I would'nt agree
blanketly that "doctors kill". Many do; some consciously, some by ignorance.
(lets go there another time).

I beleive that most MDs' & DOs' sincerely care about healing ... and are
most often successful.
Do you assume that all "eastern medicine", "shaman" and "alt.med healers"
care MORE or are MORE effective?
I believe that both camps have vast successes as well as dead/compromised
patients.

I am rethinking much about vaccines, essential oils vs. antibiotics,
counseling and/or intuitive healing vs. treating symptoms w/meds.

Wheras for certain back pains many moons ago I would have reached for
a muscle relaxer, I know now that massage or D.O. or Chiropratic manipulation
works ... better & quicker.

On the whole I believe that D.Os' approach western medicine more
wholistically than MDs'. However, I respect their limitations.

For another health challenge I had in the past, nnne of them ever
considered that my chakra(s) may be blocked and treated
the root cause(s) or attempted to unblock or balance energy flows.

I my case I have reached out to RFOLL healers on this present malady and will
seek out a professional alt. med healer as well.

Thanks for the reminder and encouragement to me and other readers
to seek other modalities.
Glenn
