Are you on drugs? ...................

[Ponce]

Prescription drugs, of course......... Wall Green is coming up with 1,400 new stores.......why?.......well, to make moeney from the drugs that the older generation will need.........OR THINK THAT THEY NEED.

Every doctor that I have had till now keeps on giving me pills for HBP.....but for some reason then don't understand that that's the way that it has been ALL MY LIFE........even while in the army and while working for a civilian outfit they were unable to give me a lie detector test because the needle looked like if I was high on drugs.

Many people are taking up to 17 prescriptions drugs a DAY......why?....what kind of life is that?.......everything that I keep reading about retirement insist that you must have a egg nest FOR DRUGS.........FK them all.

"Most people are to afraid of death to enjoy life".......so, talk to different Dr's and try to find out what is causing your illness instead of threating the illness.........life is more than pills.

PS: I don't take ANY kind of pills.

For the last 9 or so years aspirin and nothing stronger. Been at least 30 years at least since a seeing a doctor, for anything except sewing up leaks.

[keehah]

My Dad is in a home now that he has no short term memory, and still his Doctor prescribes him cholesterol (brain tissue) dissolving drug.

I take sudafed keeps my nose and ears dry and no sinus headaches, and now I have to show I.D. and sign for it saying I won't make illegal drugs from it . LOL , I bet they are watching me ;)

[Canadian-guerilla]

not even an aspirin in 15+ years, only thing i'm taking now is coumadin

in the last few days, i'm sneezing like a machine gun, so i may have to get something for allergies

[LastResort]

It's unbelievable go to the doctors office and if they can't prescribe you a pill to make it better than its all in your head and theres nothing wrong with you. Treating the causes of illness rather than masking symptoms makes much more sense to me.

CG - You should look into natural blood thinning enzymes sush as nattokinase, lumbrokinase, and i think there are a few others. I know my oma had a near death experience from being on rat poison (coumadin) for too long.

Canadian?, Resort?..........welcome to this board :)

[LastResort]

Thanks Ponce! I was on the old GIM tried registering at this board when it started up but was having issues... Having issues now with logging in and such.

I was having serious bouts of iritis....went to 4 opthamologists and 2 therapeutic optomitrists. none could say what was causing it and gave me pred forte eye drops. that shit is expensive. went to cvs and had to pay 80 bux for a 10 ml vial when I was off insurance. When I had insurance, they said they could only give me 5 ml eye drops unless my doctor specific...fuggin liars...was on that crap since 2004...so for about 7 years. I was desperately trying to find some other alternative...tried all kinds of eye ointments, lubes, saline solutions. bausch and lomb has saline eye solution, 5 ml for 20 bux! :facepalm: I finally foudn some homeopathic eye drops, 5 bux for 20 ml, and haven't turned back. Been on it for 6 wks, so far so good. I just drop in a drop when my eye feels scratchy. Before, I was taking pred forte drops for about 6 weeks, clear for 2 weeks, and then the iritis came back...what a nightmare. I think anything that affects the eye also seriously affects the psyche of a person....

Prescription drugs are for the most part poisons. This is such a coincidence (or maybe a conspiracy) that you bring this up Ponce. I have lately been reading Death by Injection by Eustace Mullins. I'm also a frequent visitor to http://whale.to I refuse to take prescription drugs--but I have to take one--for high blood pressure, which I cut the dose in half after I lost weight. Like other allopathic drugs, it's a poison, and I won't be happy until I stop taking it altogether.

Greetings to Canadian Guerilla, lastresort and letter_factory. Good to talk with you here--and not at the other gold forum.

i'll look into these enzymes
thx

In short, NO.

I occasionally take pseudo ephedrine when my nose is really running and I need to be presentable. I will take painkillers as prescribed when truly needed (like when I hurt my back).

Total drug consumption approaches maybe 5 single pills in a given year. I have been known to recreationally imbibe but those days are past.

Culling the herd? Causing Alzheimer's and/or similar mental confusion, in order to keep them from being able to share their wisdom and experience with the rest of us?

While your generation is being urged to take meds, parents of young children and babies are pressured to vaccinate them. I think "they're" attacking both vulnerable ends of the population.


Every doctor that I have had till now keeps on giving me pills.

Do you notice that every single one of them has posters, coffee cups, pens, note pads, etc. etc. that are basically Big Pharma meds advertisements? That should be a tip-off. These kinds of "doctors" are only good for treating traumatic acute problems like broken bones, injuries, etc.

Unfortunately, the holistic-minded doctors whose offices aren't walking advertisements for Big Pharma don't usually take HMO insurance and have to be paid out-of-pocket.


but for some reason then don't understand that that's the way that it has been ALL MY LIFE.

They don't like to "understand" that which doesn't enrich their checkbooks. (There's a quote about that, but the google gods are being unkind to me and I can't find it.)

I don't take any kind of drug except caffeine in coffee or tea, but I have had them pushed on me, especially before I knew any better to avoid Big Pharma doctors. After about the third visit, though, I started to get the bright idea that they weren't interested in finding out WHY I was having the trouble I was having, but just wanting to eliminate the symptom, even if doing so comes with just as problematic or worse "side" effects.

That makes about as much sense as breaking or putting a piece of tape over the gas level indicator of your car when you're low on gas!

Yes, and all foods that contain vitamin K2, like raw cheese and raw dairy from grass-fed animals.

yes I am, why do you ask?

[ximmy]

I'm still young but I have no intention of ever being on a prescription drug... I'd rather live free until death takes me.

[Buddha]

i guess I should make myself clear, nothing prescribed ^^ by the medical industrial complex. I'm a depressed mothefucker, but that means i have my own problems to overcome. no drug will solve that. Manning up and making a better life will ^^

prescriptions can prolong life, i'm not against someone using them, just myself... Yes, natural is better, and sometimes sucking it up is just as well... ;)

Petrochemicals are hormone disruptors. They are everywhere. Start eating clean food (organic), stop using soap and shampoos with them, stop drinking fluoridated chemical laden tap water, and exercise more. Clear out all that toxified fat, being overweight is bad. Really old fat people are never seen....ever wonder why? RIP.

Your body can heal itself from anything. Let it. If you eat crap, guess what your blood is like. Crap.

For some people.

Just saw this on Mercola.com:

Average drug label lists whopping 70 side effects (http://www.msnbc.msn.com/id/43141690/ns/health-health_care/?ocid=twitter)

"Having a high number of side effects on a drug's label should not suggest that the drug is unsafe. In fact, much of this labeling has less to do with true toxicity than with protecting manufacturers from potential lawsuits," said study researcher Dr. Jon Duke, assistant professor of medicine at the Indiana University School of Medicine."

Uh-huh, suuuure. ::)

[osoab]

Most of us are taking these drugs through our filtered water from the sanitary system.

Pay attention to the adds on tv. as they speed through the side effects, some even say you can die! , taking them.

Thank you but NO! 60 years old and no scripts, just aspirin and plan to keep it that way.

Edit:
For some people , some drugs do help them. But I do believe all in all it is a racket , to treat the symptoms and not the cause. It makes the
drug co's a wad of money and the doctors is some cases kickbacks in some shape or form. Imho
