the whole situation with women being used as paying guinea pigs as they were told that those horrible leaky silicone breast implants were fine to use is very similar. the implants were never tested to begin with, but were then used for decades before being removed from the market. now they areback on the market, supposedly "safe" now... yeah, sure they are.
i feel the same way about doctors as you do, very turned off by the whole system - they give you stuff you don't need half the time, or that makes your problem worse, and then you have to fight them for what you DO need. it's such a screwed up system.
