Rereading my post, I overemphasized the problem of doctors' limited attention and ignorance. I nearly always adopt the doctors' ideas because they know a lot more than I do about everything. But I have also found for myself life-saving and essential things they miss or get wrong.

For examples, I once upon a time got migraines, asthma, allergies [sneezing/cattarh/itchy].

I figured out migraines for myself by luck in Geneva. In my youth I would get a migraine, it would progress to throbbing hammer in head pain, vomit from it, pass out, sleep, recover. Now, as soon as I get the vision blur which follows not long after a faint headiness, I consume caffeine [Coca Cola or strong coffee], sugar, water. Hey presto, magic. Vision clears. But I still need a good sleep as lack of sleep is part of the problem. Coca Cola could advertize their therapeutic effect. Dehydration, lack of sleep, low blood sugar = migraine. In Geneva I drank a couple of cans of Coca Cola and came right! I did the same thing when renting a car at LAX = I couldn't actually see the lady's face who was renting me the car. I pretended things were normal as she wouldn't give it to a blind person. I didn't intend to drive, just sit in it until I could see. 2 cans of Coke fixed me. Needed 2 more a couple of hours later near San Diego. Good sleep that night.

Nearly died from asthma twice. Once saved by injection of something lying on doctor's room bed after a night of 250 mg salbutamol pill not good enough [no inhaler in those days]. Now never asthma. Avoid house mites, eat excellent diet plus vit C, D, cod liver oil supplements, now with zinc and bazil nuts [selenium], magnesium sometimes, heavy breathing exercize. Rarely I can get a slight lung tighten if infected. An inhalation of salbutamol fixes that instantly. No advice from doctors ever - just use inhalers [earlier salbutamol pills and before that alupent [useless] and before that some steamy inhalation of useless something with towel to keep the inhaling confined]

Have been much better at skin cancer detection and removal than doctors who err much too much on 'keep an eye on it'. I say no, cut it off - if only 1 in 5 is cancer that's winning odds. 1 in 100 for melanoma is winning odds [have not had one of those though my wife has 27 years ago, and specialist said keep an eye on it, we said no, cut it out and we were right and he wrong. It was tiniest melanoma but that's already big enough. ]

Non Hodgkins lymphoma [diffuse, large B cell, intermediate grade] - my figured out treatment is now standard first treatment. Message 20827885
Sadly,, Rich Belanger died in 2005 [heart attack - high cholesterol] and Tarken [our son with NHL in 1997, suicide 2015 following self-inflicted B12 dietary deficiency and other variables].
