I don't do doctors either. Almost all the people I grew up with are now taking some kind of prescription drug, most are taking several kinds, and have been for years now. Almost all of them have suffered side effects and/or adverse reactions from those patent drugs, some of them suffer from serious side effects. At least one has died as a result of those "side effects".

As a rule, people put way to much faith in doctors and ignore the known side effects of the drugs they take. When drug companies tell you in their TV ads that "Death" is a side effect, it's because they know people die as a result of using their drugs, not from the condition the drugs are prescribed to treat.

tick...tick...tick. Just' sayin'.
