Medical Bias

My mother-in-law took hormone pills which worked well for years. She felt normal; she slept normal--everything was great. Suddenly, they took them away from her. She wishes she had them back...

The Today Show interviewed a doctor this morning. She stated that hormone replacement for women and birth control pills have serious effects upon a small percentage of these women.
"BUT," and this was clearl articulated, "we don't discourage taking birth control."
Oh, of course not....can't have that now with such a disciplined society!

Yet, nary a word about making sure women take the hormone pills!
Oh, of course not...can't have women taking such great risks...like 1 in 10,000.

No medical bias here. Oh, of course not....

Elder Mathis:

FYI, if you're interested, I can probably come up with some natural supplements that would help with the hormone thing since she can't take the pharms any more.
