Quick rant about Big Pharm
Sat, 11/14/2015 - 00:23Hi,
I try not to rant too much. Lately I have been coming on this websight more often then before for some much needed community support. The more posts I see about various meds vs. posts I see about diet. Then I see everybody trying to get CBD oil and dr.'s won't prescribe it to them and all I can think is how I get meds by the handful. I have 4 different meds. Has my dr. ever spoken to me about anything different than medication? NO! And from what I see on the chat groups few other dr.'s have either. Why? It's big business to keep giving us meds. I'm fed up!!!
