My dad told me about a situation that happened between him and a doctor yesterday.
He has been diagnosed as having high cholesteral and the doctor wrote him a prescription for a popular drug to control it. The doctor warned him however, that one of the possible side effects of the drug is that in certain people, it will case extreme muscule degeneration, which will in turn cause the destroyed tissue to travel by blood to the kidneys, which will also be destroyed. There is no way to forsee this until after it has happened, eventually leading to a paralysis-type state or death.
My dad refused the medication and has no other options as diet and exercise do not work either.
Now, what you need to realize is that, when looking at the many proposed frameworks for a Nationalized Healthcare Program, EVERY ONE will require that if a doctor prescribes medication, you do not have the right to refuse it.......
