Gracie - weigh in on this. I would like to hear your thoughts on when you go to the doctor if you are comfortable questioning the doctor's orders. My guess is you are.
My Father taught each of us - "Remember...Doctors only practice medicine. So be careful who you let practice on you and be wary of what they intend to practice!"

Am also a child of the 60s. Married into a large enough family of Italian heritage who always [before seeking medical care for anything but the obvious] sought out the old, proven tonic or treatment that had been handed down for generations.
