DaiS

And for those who don't know Welsh idioms, DaiS means Mr S. As in dai Book-and-Pencil is the traffic warden, and dai-bungalow is derogatory, (means no one is home "upstairs"). Not a negative on Dai-S, just a little Hmmm thrown in at the front.

I see a bit of doctor bashing creeping in here. (not by DaiS) I only ask that those people who would bash doctors, would do it in relation to their own personal experience. While I know there will be some horror stories, I am confident that the personal experience of most people with their own doctor, will not have a lot of negatives or presupposed biases. I am proud of my profession and constantly surprised and pleased at the lengths that my colleagues go to to protect and care for those people who trust them with their lives and their health. Your own doctor's use of a medicine is not bought by a golf outing so easily. Why assume that someone else's doctor is so easily swayed?

I have seen in this months issue of Esquire Magazine a "non-viagra" ad (by PFE) about ED. Twice it mentions that your heart may give out from sexual activity and your doctor should certify you as "fit to fornicate". Never mentions the drug. Clever use of advertisement as a priori restraint on potential lawsuits sure to come in the future.
