[tri-med] Re: FYI - Study Says Some Baby Care Not Needed

<<The researchers said this oversupply is not only a profound waste of
medical
resources, it may also be harmful, because it may subject babies to
unnecessary
tests and treatments.

The researchers "raise disturbing issues regarding the nation's
unquestioning
acceptance that more is always better with respect to the supply of
specialist
physicians and hospital technology,"....."There's a downside where we meddle
too much.">>

Amen, and it's not just limited to babies, as the "Princess Phil Diaries"
attest!!!  Too many doctor, with too many different agendas, almost did her
in.  I now list Nipride among her allergies, so we will never have it rear
it's
ugly head again, and I'm tempted to add Phenobarbital to that list too, once
we
finally get her all the way off of it.  Talk about an over-kill, 120mg 2X
daily,
just as a precaution, in a 100lb child who has never had a seizure in her
life?
I'd really like to know which genius ordered that, but with over 3 months
worth
of extensive medical records I'd have to buy, and read through, I'll
probably
never really do it.  Thank God though for one very nice Iron Rabbit, Piscean
Neurologist, who actually listens, and hears what's said, not what he
expects to
hear, who spent the evening of his 51st birthday reading through her chart,
and
wrote the order to start getting her off of it.  If they really want to
clone
someone, I nominate him......
