It should be against the law
Have you noticed all the drug ads on TV saying "ask your doctor if X is right for you"? Are you aware that the USA and New Zealand are the only two countries in the world that permit TV drug ads? In every other country, it is against the law to advertise prescription drugs. Oh, and you can get all of our drugs in Canada for about 1/10th what we have to pay here. AMA is directed by FDA, who is directed by Congress, who is owned by Big Pharma. The Swamp lives on both sides of the aisle.

I'm well aware, and it's frightening.

Not to me, but to my children and grandchildren.

It should be against the law, and doctors should not receive commissions from big pharma from prescriptions they write. Why nobody is asking this question is beyond me....most cancer doctors are millionaires just by prescribing chemo.
I wonder if they get more than the usual 6% for chemo?

I hear it often at the V.A., and they even have an actual acupuncturist on staff. Yes, real live alternative medicine. I am going next month to a pain management meeting where I get to talk to several alternative types about methods "other than drugs."
Yeah and with this opiates crisis might even see more alternative medicine

These 'taking the day off' things are rough.
Just got back from 4.5 hours of driving in insane traffic and shopping at Wally world too.
Carried everything in, unloaded power chair and put in house and removed carrier from Blazer.

All this rest is rough...

Hey Dale have you ever heard of or tried Liposom,al vitamin C? it's a deep cell vitamin C, goes deeper into your cells than intervenious vitamin C. I used it to shrink that lump in my throat and now it is almost gone.

The stuff is amazing, kills cancer and really boosts the energy level, you can't go wrong but it's pricey, well to me anyway. I highly recommend it.
I'm going to try some, probably from Amazon.

I'd think the liquid might be better than tablets or powder.

That link you posted seems to be inexpensive....not sure about shipping costs....if you have a Prime account I guess Amazon would be less.
