last week about all this DNA, stuff, he doesn't expect any miracle cures or cloning for sometime. But what he said was profound, "no medical professional has any understanding as to how the human body works, in any disease or affliction, it's strictly a trial and error process for treatment, the study of DNA will change all this, for the first time, professionals will have an understanding as to how the human body works."
I can say his statement really hit home, after seeing many different neuros over the years, not one has used any scientific approach to determine the cause of these headaches and can also state that not two doctors have offered the same course of treatment. It's all one big guessing game!
Perhaps we were unfortunate in being born to soon, but can't say I wish I was born earlier, least they are no longer bleeding off the evil spirits or boring a hole in your head so they can escape.
Ha, fibromyalgia is an elegant word meaning "I don't have the slightest idea what's wrong with you." I don't think pouring down the drugs is the answer, to my knowledge, there is no drug that can prevent drowning, have to get out of the water. Really irritates the hell out of me, can be with a group of people in a smoke filled environement, I get a CH and they don't, we must have a misadjusted screw someplace, till then, have got to get out of that smoke filled area.
