You touch on something important. If Big Pharma only did nasty things, nobody would trust them ever. There is some stuff they do that works a treat, but they then use that good will to shoehorn in their less ethical junk for the sake of 'make money line go up'. Figuring out which is good and which is bad is such a difficult thing especially when it is a new thing right out of the lab.
About a year back my father got diagnosed with Bladder cancer and with eight treatments of immunotherapy, now the cancer is completely gone. Only 5 years ago that was a slow death sentence, today it is curable. It is kind of amazing to see what has been achieved in the field of cancer treatments at least. At least the doctors where honest in saying to him that it was experimental and there was the risk of being diabetic from it.
But I can name about a half dozen times when stuff has been prescribed and it was a total bust or just done to get you out of the office as quick as possible.
A weird one was a pain killed I was given once that had the weirdest side effect. I though the batteries had gone flat in the door bell until I realized all my hearing had drop a half octave! Very weird to experience.
I was also on another pain killer for a double herniated spinal injury about 10 years back. My short term memory has been fried ever since and while at the time there was nothing mentioned of this, I have come across many people that have experienced this since having it.
Like you I am now getting fairly deep into herbal treatments, in a sense of prevention is better than cure. It is a very cool scene around that and it has worked out well so far. I would recommend the folks over at 'Plant Healer Book store' for a good introduction but there are many more like that around. Jessi Wolf Hardin and the late Stephen Harrod Bruhner are both great at speaking the quiet parts loud as a great introduction.
