[P] The suspicion that surrounds common solutions to complex ailments can make me cross. Instead of trying to stubbornly disprove everything out of misplaced egotism (especially becauses a basis on provability can be shaky ground), first examine the evidence available & fairly consider validity. Yes, it's a more costly process, but the intersection between capitalism & science shouldn't favour the money barons where suffering could be eazed, perhaps profoundly.

[P] I've had tinnitus for decades, severe and maddening. I was granted succour by tautine supplements after a great deal of research. I won't go into its mechanisms here, as there's a growing body of research that's worth reading first-hand, and that isn't what this is about. It's doctors, and even specialists (a worse sin, given that they shouod eajt to educate themselves given their metier), are dismissively discourage taurine as an option.

[P] Instead, pseudoscientific quackery like Lenire is pushed despite thete being little evidence of success for that expensive, over-engineered gadget. And I'm not being dismissive of Lenire, statistically it juwt hasn't helped many people and could fall into the placebo effect. I've seen some tinnitus-sufferers call it a scam given its cost vs. effectiveness ratio. And yet the preference for Lenire persists, galling as it is. It's Ivermectin for tinnitus.

[P] I loathe Trump's propaganda regarding vaccines as it lead to greater suffering; I loathe the resistance to taurine as a treatment path due to the equally harmful propaganda of products like Lenire. A similar situation exists with metformin. An acquaintance felt like they were becoming more paranoid and losing their mind while on it. Research yielded the cursed revelation of metformin psychosis, which lead to them dropping it quick-sharpish.

[P] It's presented that metfoemin is the least harmful medication, that all others are riskier with more harmful side-effects. This is patently untrue. I learned of berberine and that was tried instead, with the understanding that it'd need time to build up in the blood, so diet was managed very carefully for a while. It wasn't long however before berberine hit its stride and lead to lower blood-glucose than metformin ever did. It was a wonderful success.

[P] Does homeopathy exist? Of course. Do some believe in mystical nonsense solutions? Indubitably. However, penicillin was the result of a clever slob in a dirty home noticing something about the unusual bread he'd just consumed. So that happens too. Sometimes we eat a thing we find and it fixes us. That's a fact. A doctor's job should involve telling the two apart, instead of nursing an overly-inflated ego wounded by a patient knowing something they didn't.
