    This is my first contact with the medical industrial complex in decades

    I'm pretty healthy in general but they got their hooks in me on blood pressure

    The inevitable result of daily squabbling with Hondo
    I laff.

    HH is a stress relief. Hondo is a speed bag

    almost the entire health industry is a big scam. They spend most of their time making up new diseases for people to worry about. If all you do is not smoke, keep your weight down, exercise, stay off drugs and heavy drinking, there is nothing to worry about. Of course, that means everybody here (we?) needs the fucking scam!

    One thing that does work: cataract surgery.

    If we’re bashing heavy drinking, I’m blacking out.

    Get the fuck outta here. Only an asshole who hasn't had a serious health issue in their life would say something this fucking stupid.

    God help me if I write the whole story of dealing with the wife's previous allergist office where apathy, incompetence, and ignorance all went to retire. I miss my doctor and my PPO that I was told I could keep. At least we are now at a competent practice it's just that we've gotta drive to across LA for services.

    I bet if we wen’t do single payer we’d see a huge uptick in customer service and competence.
    Thanks - I just blew funny stuff out my nose

    High blood pressure due to food and drinking choices not recommended by the healthcare industry and hidden from the wife?

    I solved that problem two years ago.

    I haven’t gone to a doctor since. Problem solved.
