😁 It is possible.

Can we back this up with some actual facts?

vlale said:People wait years for an appointment, mostly because the doctor is busy sipping coffee until 9 AM while patients have been sitting in the waiting room since 7 AM... and so on.

Correction to an inaccurate statement—the delays are actually due to systemic organizational failures within the entire healthcare system.

I thought everything was fine, but if you're looking for a thorough checkup, I agree with what Susan Martin24 suggested.

Since you mentioned these headaches are frequent and intense, my advice is not to try and manage this on your own. You really need to coordinate your care directly with your doctor. If there's an underlying issue, as you say, your best bet would be to see a private neurologist—that might actually be the smartest first step—or perhaps an internist.

I’m not sure if you’ve already brought this up with your doctor, but I personally get my bloodwork and urinalysis done once a year, and I haven't had any issues with the two physicians I've seen so far. It's usually just a quick, "Oh, you need this? Sure, here's the lab referral."

I'm a bit confused by your mention of cervical vertebrae and Doppler ultrasound. I'm not entirely sure how necessary those tests are, especially given your age.

Sugar—in any form you can find it, including all those nasty additives hidden in processed foods.
Milk.
White flour and all those processed flour products.
Out-of-season fruit in the US.
Fruit juices.
Soda pop.

🤣

And how exactly does this weaken the immune system?

I work in a hospital, and almost every single day I have to deal with these arrogant, spoiled snobs flaunting their expensive little designer trinkets...

But let's be honest here—do you really think you're any better?

rustymoose54 said:Seriously though—look, I get it. It sounds like you’ve had some bad experiences with doctors in the past, and I am truly sorry you went through that. But that doesn't mean everything you wrote above is true. Just tell us what’s actually bothering you or what happened to you.

Exactly! 👍

Sarah Baker5 said:I’m not following you. Are you trying to say that most doctors in America actually show proper professional respect to nurses and support staff—treating them like their essential right hand—or is it actually quite the opposite?🙄

What I’m getting at is that Americans, generally speaking, aren't just poorly educated; they can be downright rude. And that goes for everyone: the doctors, the nurses, the technicians, the lab workers, and even the security guards out front.

I’ve even heard rumors that some of them are into sodomy...

I’ve heard that most of them are actually pedophiles and/or transvestites!

Let’s see who dares comment that I'm an "older woman" now. 🙂

Well, those mummies have certainly seen their fair share of years passing by...

Health-for-all said:Flush out all those toxins you've been accumulating in your system for years

What kind of toxins are we talking about here? Like, black mamba venom?

Ladies, you can do whatever you want, but I am telling you seriously: please reach out to your doctors.

Betty Rivera14, please get in touch with your doctor. As soon as possible.

urbansailor68 said:I’m not entirely sure what qualifies as a "plumber's gel," but in my experience, those kinds of heavy-duty cleaners can actually eat through your drain pipes. If that happens, you're going to need a plumber and a whole lot of extra cash.👋

I hear you. However, the label clearly states that if you follow the directions, the product is safe for all types of piping, including PVC.

Personally, I am of the opinion that the Earth is essentially a flat plane.

What kind of Clorox? I just stick to plumber's gel. I pour some down the drains every now and then.

Regarding the bathroom, Lysol works perfectly fine, though lately I've been using one of those Clorox products. It comes in a white bottle with a spray nozzle on top.

OxiClean! The power of oxygen is absolutely incredible!
