----- example quotes of Jan accusing people of being paid shills -----

Whatever organized medicine says is swallowed hook line and sinker
by the shill EGO handicapped debunkers who are brainwashed.

Any time alt. health is mentioned the personal trashing starts. Mostly
comes from paid shill Mark Probert.

Internet bully Mark Probert who is a paid shill and lives off his wife.

As for Mark, he is a paid shill and lives off his wife.

As long as Mark is here, the paid shill will call names when in fact
he is the one who is a bigot. Speaking of his own people.

Prove what? Prove your false accusations?
You can't deny making those accusations,
and then stand by them, at the same time.

(Or maybe you can, but you'll look like a fool.
I guess that's nothing new for you.  You can't
even tell the difference.)

Man enough to do what?  Look like a fool?  Like you?

Mark,

   I sure with you and a few others would start a
newsgroup "alt.abuse.jandrew" and take your comments
there so as to leave this one free for discussions
about alternative health care, pro or con.

Marvin,

I sure wish that she would take her abuse to
"alt.call-everyone-I-disagree-with-a-liar" and stop fomenting trouble here
so the pros and cons of al med can be discussed.

IOW, complain to her. She is the source of the problems.

No, those that dislike the choices that Jan, and others have made in their
lives here using alternative medicine are the problem.  Including those that
disagree with alternative forms of medicine...those that believe it is *their
job* to warn others that using alternative medicine is bad.  They should be at
the very least be honest by stating, alternative medicine is taking *money*
right out of the pockets of the conventional medicine world, and it is their
job to keep people hooked on conventional medicine...

At least be honest, Probert, this is what this is all about isn't it?

OMG...how OFTEN must we "complain to her" and still she plods on with her bs

>those that believe it is *their

"those" that warn others that one must demand objective proof that "alt" can do
anything is what you mean I think

personally I "believe" in and "use" both chiro and massage....and recommend
both to friends and clients

>alternative medicine is taking *money*
>right out of the pockets of the conventional medicine world

actually it is sadder that "money is coming out of the pockets" of the
desperate and needy....

funny  that NONE of the alties understand THIS concept...

actually alt treatment costs MORE....since insurance will not cover it...

but rarely does any alt moan about the MONEY being made by the alties...and
quacks like Hulda...

nor have any of these charlatans been shown to be doing this for altruistic
reasons..

note the credit card and PayPay symbols on their websites...

it is the job of the alts to "keep people hooked" on alt treatment...it is a
cash cow to them

Whopee skippy!!

<<

Let's talk about the outrageous amount of money being spent every month for
health insurance by people in this country.  Yes, "money is coming out of the
pockets of the desperate and needy" for crappy conventional medicine.  

<<

This is not entirely true.  They cover chelation, massage, chiropractic,
accupressure, accupuncture,
and other alternatives....who are you trying to feed this crap too?

<< but rarely does any alt moan about the MONEY being made by the alties...and

Jealous?  Does she make more money than you do?  
What's the difference between doctors and other health care professionals
getting kickbacks in gifts, or money for prescribing drugs that their "drug
salesman" are pushing?  

<< it is the job of the alts to "keep people hooked" on alt treatment...it is a
cash cow to them >>

No, that would be conventional medicine too...who exactly are you trying to
fool here?  Duh.

ahhhh....let us review the above

ONE policy we had did cover chiro....the rest NADA NADA...and this was/is class
I PPO coverage....

chelation for "medical" reasons,,ie heavy metal toxicity is a different
thing...as this is the ONLY thing chelation works for..

"who" am I trying to feed this crap too???

hmmm...how about ME....since I know MY policy doesn't cover any unproven
methods..

and yeah..massage is great...at $50  an hour...I consider it money well
spent....

>Jealous?  Does she make more money than you do?  

actually we are retired..but when we were working we made a very handsome
living...and didn't have to retreat south of the border to do so...

>and other health care professionals

well...if you consider "pens and note pads" kickbacks....money?? LOL...

funny tho...my pool service also drops off pens and notepads..

kathy37@webtv.net - 13 Mar 2004 23:52 GMT
Unless insurance companies are required by law to pay for alternative
treatments, they rarely do.  California  doesn't require these to be
covered except for basic chiropractic treatment,

Thus when I went to a California acupuncturist for my "frozen
shoulder", I had to pay 100% out of pocket ($60 per visit); when
acupuncture didn't work & I then checked in with a chiropractor, I paid
a $10 co-pay, & the insurance company picked up the $40 or $50 balance.

Some insurance plans in non-pay states give you  a short list of
alternative practitioners that they hook up with that offer maybe 20%
discounts, but unless you have an alternative health policy or rider &
live in one of the few states that require insurance payment, you'll pay
for "unrecognized" treatment out-of-pocket.

<<

And those medical reasons have a lot to do with people having a lot of metal
exposures..coming straight from the environment...or the workplace......
why else would someone want to "chelate" if they didn't have metals in their
body?  

<< hmmm...how about ME....since I know MY policy doesn't cover any unproven
methods.. >>

sounds like lousy coverage to me.  Many policies are covering a wide range of
alternatives...or complementary therapies.  

<< >and other health care professionals
>getting kickbacks in gifts, or money for prescribing drugs that their "drug

Give me a break, it is beyond that, and that's common knowledge.....

<< funny tho...my pool service also drops off pens and notepads.. >>

so doesn't many other services, and businesses, in an attempt to create new
business for themselves....

<<
>cash cow to them >>

I know what a "cash cow" is....and that's why I am also referencing
conventional medicine to this.  There are a lot of people who have unanswered
health problems, and for which the doctor keeps reeling you back in for more,
instead of having the decency to send you to a specialist in that field, he'd
rather keep getting money and not doing anything....

<< perhaps "those" of you who do NOT have professional credentials prefer to
believe the dribble the alts say about "us".... >>

What professional credentials do you have?  Did you purchase them or earn them?
Some of us do have credentials, and don't have to brag about them......

Chelation works for metals like calcium and magnesium also. I believe
aluminum is the only metal not chelatable to this date.

Yes, lets have all the calcium and magnesium removed from our bodies....
we'll sure be a healthy lot then.  ;-)

Because they are somatically hypervigilant, paranoid, scientifically
illiterate, and/or gullible.  Heck, Debbee, some people are so far gone, they
*believe* that their blood was setting off metal detectors in the airports!
Some will further allege that their MD uses a metal detector to monitor the
chelation process!  

Debbee, don't you see just how crazy it sounds?

good question. The answer is that someone lied to them and told them that
cherlation is effective for atherosclerosis.

So you're claiming the alts like Clark are treating people for FREE?  No
charge - out of the goodness of their hearts?  Since when?

Which Ins. covers all these?  Blue Cross/Blue Shield?  Medicare?

Why answer a question with a question?  She charges people thousands to stay
in her sleazy clinic.  Have you read about the INSIDE of the place?

Why don't you just answer the questions?

FREE now?

Here's my comment as it was written above....

Next out of Kim's mouth is:

<< So you're claiming the alts like Clark are treating people for FREE?  No
charge - out of the goodness of their hearts?  Since when? >>

Now, what part of my comment has anything to do with what you wrote?    It is a
big ZERO.....it has nothing to do with what I wrote, Kim, so obviously, you are
trolling here for a reason...to make up stuff that isn't here...

Next is another comment (which Kim snipped herself) from Kim.

<< > actually alt treatment costs MORE....since insurance will not cover it...

Now my comment as it was written:

<< > This is not entirely true.  They cover chelation, massage, chiropractic,
> accupressure, accupuncture,
> and other alternatives....who are you trying to feed this crap too? >>

<< Which Ins. covers all these?  Blue Cross/Blue Shield?  Medicare? >>

Kaiser, many other HMO's, and some of the PPO plans.
I got chelation drugs from Kaiser..

Next is Kim's comment:
<< > << but rarely does any alt moan about the MONEY being made by the

> quacks like Hulda... >> >>
And then my comment:

<< > Jealous?  Does she make more money than you do? >>
And then Kim's comment:

<< Why answer a question with a question?  She charges people thousands to stay

I can answer a question with a question if I want to.  He/she whomever are you
has claimed you are only looking for answers.  How do you personally know about
Clark's place?  I haven't read about it, and I have no plans of going there.
If you know so much, please do tell where you really got the information, and
what your real reason is for attacking?

My comment is next:
<<
> What's the difference between doctors and other health care professionals

"drug

Next is Kim's comments (who, as you will note, did not answer my question).

And then Kim's comments:

Some do, Kim, depending on the patient's ability to pay.   I know of two places
that I've heard about.  I haven't been there, but I know they exist, because
others I've known have gone there.

And then Kim's comment:

<<Please note, I don't wish to get involved in any personal

No, you are not only looking for answers, you are stirring up the pot,
trolling, and me thinks you are a plant.  (And I am not talking about a potted
petunia).

now that is funny!!!  Having worked for Kaiser for 15 years...I can assure you
that "chelation for heavy metals" is likely the ONLY thing above that is
covered..and that is because it is proven that chelation removes heavy
metals...duh

massage,,chiro..accupuncture,,etc...nada nada on Kaiser..

please provide proof that YOUR KP plan covers these things (not chelation for
heavy metals...different animal)

in the past (and we have always had EXCELLENT executive level PPO
coverages..various companies)..there was a time when chiro was covered..and
actually massage IF done in the chiro office..but limited to 12 per year...

the rest??  not hardly...

=============BIG SNIP!

All your BS aside - if the alts like Clark are charging for their services
they are making money just like the pharm' companies and Lic Drs out there.
Deal with it already.

Interesting comment. One of the main reasons why discussions are not
able to happen on mha is because Jan Drew personally attacks anyone
who expresses any skepticism (con) of alternative treatments. If she
would stop the personal attacks then we would stop confronting her
about the personal attacks. I think it important to see where the
problem originates.

If we took the discussion of Jan DRew to another group, Jan Drew would
remain here and continue to disrupt conversations.

As a matter of fact, you should know this better than anyone Marvin.
IIRC you and I were having a mutually respectful discussion a while
back and Jan intruded just to make a personal attack. And to your
credit Marvin, you confronted Jan about it and told her to butt out in
so many words. Unless I am confusing you with some other Marvin but I
think you are the one. I believe we were discussing flax oil at the
time.

Aloha,

Rich

Anyone have a problem if I start a newsgroup...for all of the abusers here that
attack those that are pro conventional medicine?    Rich, is my inspiration for
wanting to start this kind of ng, and so aren't the rest of his buddies.
