      that worm died and you know it

      /uj they tend to recommend i eat foods i’m allergic to, because they refuse to read medical records. US doctors are effective at regurgitating information but not actually thinking through problems.

      As much as I’m on team pro-science, doctors are not omniscient, and lots of people have the experience of needing to direct their medical care at some point in their lives. Blindly accepting medical advice can be just as harmful as “doing your own research,” as any woman who’s gotten the old “have you considered that you’re faking it?” or “but your labs are fine so…” run-around can attest.
