Not only am I done with medicine, I’ve about had it with doctors too.
3 minute commercials promoting a miracle cure, 2 minutes of which listing side affects.
Followed by Lawyer self-promoting ads for class action suits,,,
Some say Sh*t happens,
Nah, it’s just life,,,,

The other night there was one that caused a whole list of side effects, the strangest was genital infection that could cause cervical cancer in women and could be severe enough in men to lose their testicles.
I didn’t see what the medicine was for, but I thought who the hell would take something that could give you cancer or lose your balls, don’t really think the disease you have is that bad.

Jimmy, that was hilarious! Sent the link to all my friends and family.
I used to work for a doctor who would get patients asking for pills to cure whatever. One time he told a chronic complainer that he could cure whatever it was she came in for that day, but that it would kill her first. I saw him smirking in his office after she left in a huff.

I heard the US and NZ are the only countries in the world that allow commercials for prescription medications. Anybody know if that’s true?

There was a movie, Joe Somebody, I think was the name, that had a drug ad playing on a TV in the background. The ad ended with “uncontrollable gas and death”.
I *think* it was a parody.

That’ll do it.
No meds.
