WHAT REMAINS TO BE UNCOVERED

 

Our ongoing research will continue to quantify the morbidity, mortality, and

financial loss due to:

 

 

X-ray exposures: mammography, fluoroscopy, CT scans.

 

 

Overuse of antibiotics in all conditions.

 

 

Drugs that are carcinogenic: hormone replacement therapy (*see below),

immunosuppressive drugs, prescription drugs.

 

 

Cancer chemotherapy: If it doesn’t extend life, is it shortening life?70

 

 

Surgery and unnecessary surgery: Cesarean section, radical mastectomy,

preventive mastectomy, radical hysterectomy, prostatectomy, cholecystectomies,

cosmetic surgery, arthroscopy, etc.

 

 

Discredited medical procedures and therapies.

 

 

Unproven medical therapies.

 

 

Outpatient surgery.

 

 

Doctors themselves: when doctors go on strike, it appears the mortality rate

goes down.

 

 

*Part of our ongoing research will be to quantify the mortality and morbidity

caused by hormone replacement therapy (HRT) since the mid-1940’s. In December

2000, a government scientific advisory panel recommended that synthetic estrogen

be added to the nation's list of cancer-causing agents. HRT, either synthetic

estrogen alone or combined with synthetic progesterone, is used by an estimated

13.5 to 16 million women in the U.S.145 The aborted Women’s Health Initiative

Study (WHI) of 2002 showed that women taking synthetic estrogen combined with

synthetic progesterone have a higher incidence of ovarian cancer, breast cancer,

stroke, and heart disease and little evidence of osteoporosis reduction or

prevention of dementia. WHI researchers, who usually never give recommendations,

other than demanding more studies, are advising doctors to be very cautious

about prescribing HRT to their patients.100,146-150

 

Results of the “Million Women Study” on HRT and breast cancer in the U.K were

published in the Lancet, August, 2003. Lead author, Professor Valerie Beral, of the Cancer Research UK Epidemiology Unit, is very open about the

damage HRT has caused. She said, " We estimate that over the past decade, use of

HRT by UK women aged 50-64 has resulted in an extra 20,000 breast cancers,

oestrogen-progestagen (combination) therapy accounting for 15,000 of these.”151

However, we were not able to find the statistics on breast cancer, stroke,

uterine cancer, or heart disease due to HRT used by American women. The

population of America is roughly six times that of the U.K. Therefore, it is

possible that 120,000 cases of breast cancer have been caused by HRT in the past

decade.

 

CONCLUSION

 

When the number one killer in a society is the healthcare system, then, that

system has no excuse except to address its own urgent shortcomings. It’s a

failed system in need of immediate attention. What we have outlined in this

paper are insupportable aspects of our contemporary medical system that need to

be changed - beginning at its very foundations.

Hi Dave, It may be adhesions. If I were you I would get a second

opinion as Lorenzo advised.
