******So the whole point of medicine and "testing what works" is actually completely bullshit. Fotm, flavor of the month diagnoses and treatments. Just like psychiatry. And all dependent on who the doctors peers, employers are and how much money they can get.
I'm pretty sure most doctors barely have a memorable and fundamental understanding of physiology or the intelligence to look up what they need to know on a case by case basis while cross referencing multiple concurrent threads. Most humans lack this intelligence unfortunately. Part of that is being overworked, in an imploding industry (that word again lol) with far to little time for individual patients. And far to much redundant and extraneous record keeping. (Some due to liability or corporate processes)
Most learn through memorization then forget. And are too lazy and uncaring to continually update and check and cross check. This goes for every technical field that requires research and innovation or troubleshooting. Most of the time the human body is self correcting and the environment changes so telling someone to stfu chill and chew an antacid is usually enough to avoid malpractice and appear to solve the problem. At least temporarily.
God. Everyone is so fucking dumb. Lol
Yes this is a scathing indictment.
I don't hate you if you're a doctor or medical person. And some really great ones exist. So if you read this try to either ignore it and move on with your life and career or gleen what criticism you can and make what small changes to your *institution* you may effectively execute.
