It is your body


I have never found other people's experiences, or preferences particularly helpful, with the exception of two people who are almost my clones in feelings and tastes.

I have been told surgery was the only choice only to discover that letting nature heal it possibly saved me repeat surgeries. Sometimes I had to wait up to two years, but my body eventually solved it's own problem healing a muscle or joint that was then as strong as it had ever been.

I have been told that going to rehab is absolutely necessary and gone to be put back in a cast after just one trip. Allowing my body to move at its own speed has not failed me yet. If the desire to regain movement is there, it will appear in it's own time.

Nobody really knows the answers to any of these things. They can only tell you what has mostly worked in the past and the key word there is mostly. There is a time and a place for everything, but trust your own senses. If you are wrong, it is your problem, but if you are right you will learn more about how your body works. And it can be in miraculous ways.

People used to live without all the invasive things we put our body through. Of course they died too, but people still die and sometimes it is because we tried to take the easy way out with an instantaneous cure.

Modern medicine is mostly designed around removing something, killing something, or not getting sued.

Humane medicine is human being oriented and all human beings are different.
