fyfpoon@hotmail.com - 13 May 2005 19:16 GMT Most of the new threads in this group are started by t patients. It is like a class in which there are students and no teachers. I would like to see some from doctors or specialists. After all, the latter are supposed to help people but not to drive their Porche or watch TV in their large fancy houses during the spare time. It is only when the medical profession is so well protected against entry that we have specialists enjoying the monopolistic advantages of prohibitively expensive medical service.

Might be that it''s late in the day for me but I just do not understand what you are talking about. Are you pissed that a physician, after busting his or her balls for many years to become that physician, does not deserve to enjoy the fruits of his/her many years of labor? Are you pissed because they don't seek you out, like, track you down and become your'e personal private Dr.Person? Five bucks says that you have much more "spare" time than they will ever have during their active career. Now, dammit, see what you have done. My hemmorhoids are acting up.

Just compare the countries where the supply of doctors is ample with where the supply is quite limited, and then compare the prices patients have to pay in these two places and the lengthes of their respective waiting lines. If you still had any problem, re-take econ 101 which is available for any freshmen college student in the US.

fyfpoon@hotmail.com - 14 May 2005 02:57 GMT Have I insulted the doctors? I might have insulted *your* intelligence.
Staff - 14 May 2005 03:24 GMT > Have I insulted the doctors? I might have insulted *your* intelligence. Are you drunk?
fyfpoon@hotmail.com - 14 May 2005 03:33 GMT Why are you asking me this question? You have to be drunk enough to have asked me this question.
Eric J. Scharer - 14 May 2005 03:45 GMT > Why are you asking me this question? You have to be drunk enough to > have asked me this question. Francis, you are becoming annoying. No, you are annoying.

I asked because your remarks are similar to those which would be made by someone under the influence of alcohol or, perhaps. a juvenile.
fyfpoon@hotmail.com - 16 May 2005 00:47 GMT How do you know that you are being sober?

Probably just too small a group, unless there's doctors that specialize in our problem. There are a lot of doctors on the internet who provide advice gratis; advice is all it can be, since they can't actually see the patient and make a complete diagnosis.
And like Susan mentions, this isn't a forum or a clinic, it's a support group. Which is a really useful adjunct to actually visiting a real doctor; doesn't substitute.

I know he/she keeps coming up with a variety of "cures" which can be a bit annoying, but tinnitus is even more annoying! All Francis ever seems to receive is nastiness, which I am sure he/she could well do without.

Ben - 14 May 2005 21:31 GMT > Not fer nuthin', but have you ever googled up Francis' usenet meanderings? No, I haven't, nor you ,as you rarely ever post a positive comment, and I can't be bothered to waste my time. I still don't see why a "support" group has to malign *everything* Francis says, after all, he/she is a tinnitus sufferer

I don't know how long you've been here, but I've been posting in support of other tinnitus sufferers for several years. You're no one to judge me, though if it distracts you from listening to your tinnitus full time, please feel free.
I still don't see why a "support" group

Once in a while I hear my tinnitus, too.

I still don't see why a "support" > group > has to malign *everything* Francis says, after all, he/she is a tinnitus > sufferer I've posted and observed this board for 10 years and Francis, including some quite annoying characters, has surpassed them all by puking vitriolic b.s. and casting nasty barbs at most who have been kind enough to try to help him. When physicians and other professionals attempted to help Francis he more nasty. Susan has shown the most patience for Francis and you have not been around long enough to witness her positive contributions and ease at which she will tender assistance to a newbie. Her only mistake is to respond to him at all.

Man, are you off base. Maybe Francis can go to the EZBOARD tinnitus groups where he can offend those over there.

fyfpoon@hotmail.com - 14 May 2005 03:18 GMT drfrank,
I do recognize that you are a very good medical worker. You need not remind me through your performance one more time.
fyfpoon@hotmail.com - 16 May 2005 01:01 GMT Larry Lix - 16 May 2005 02:31 GMT Didn't take long for somebody to show his ugly face again. Some just never learn about life and friends.

Some doctors are quite intellectual aside from being just a medical worker, like Dr.Nagler, for example, while most are, without a doubt, just workers.
