In fact, the opposite was the case. If the patient (parent or other adult) was there and expected to leave with a script then that's what the doc did. I've seen massive amounts of antibiotics, strong pain killers, and others be prescribed for a just in case or preventative approach. I was always amazed by how quickly parents took their children to the doc or went themselves over ailments that could be resolved with a little nutrition, rest and time. The fact of the matter is, though, that most individuals can't afford to be sick. They can't afford to miss work or have to make arrangements for caring for sick children. Can we fault someone who must work every hour he/she can to make ends meet for not taking a risk of missing pay for being sick? As much as I am for the lessened dependence on medical interventions and increase in natural solutions of rest, nutrition, exercise and time to heal, I also have come to a understanding of the many many facets of the problem from my work experiences. Even still, I do strongly believe one move in the right direction is the promotion of wellness over medicine. For those who don't necessarily have to fret over every hour = pay, I certainly think making more information available and encouraging individual decision making is wise. Thanks for the post! (I may skip on the eating dirt though ;) ).Whitneyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02565993597437176915noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310895659470299160.post-88524427838256918952011-08-18T13:36:26.632-05:002011-08-18T13:36:26.632-05:00Thanks for commenting on my guest post!

We caved and gave our little ones antibiotics for an ear infection earlier in the year and have been dealing with digestive and dental problems ever since!Anjanettehttp://www.raisingthebarrs.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310895659470299160.post-33740209206985945642011-08-18T13:20:36.223-05:002011-08-18T13:20:36.223-05:00I tend to avoid taking medication unless I really ...I tend to avoid taking medication unless I really need it, too. I've read anough about drug resistant diseases to be nervous about building up an immunity to antibiotics. Some of the info out there on drug resistant staph, strep, etc.. is really scary!Amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07591518304156689965noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7310895659470299160.post-20699259214347800222011-08-18T12:26:11.627-05:002011-08-18T12:26:11.627-05:00I only go to the doctor when a cold or sickness ha...I only go to the doctor when a cold or sickness hasn't passed by a month or so. I wait as long as possible. I don't like taking any kind of medicine really.

And he refuses to go to the doctor unless the family gangs up on him. However, that's only happened a couple times because he's rarely sick.... hmmm... I do believe there is a connection there.. :)<br /><br />Jamie<br />beingmrsmccann.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01773375571465298383noreply@blogger.com
