Was at my family DR today for my 6 month check up that was great. Even with both knees replaced and on pain pills for along time ago. I Lost 25 pounds since Dec 23 and my sugar numbers way down and still don’t have to take medication , cholesterol numbers way down , no medication needed. So instead of giving me a big that boy she spends 80% of time belittling me for not having the COVID shot ! One how does your Dr know you have not taken the shot ? Must be a master list going already at least in Iowa ? I was hot. When I told her my 2 cousins had bad reactions to shot she then got mad again and spent 5 minutes hand writing me a list were I could get a free shot starting with Walmart. I took her hand written paper list and said I know we’re I can a shot at. I wanted to say so you think I have been living on the moon the last 6 months. Then when that did not work she tried to scare me into getting the shot by saying government is going to vaccinate 1 billion plus people soon and you might not get a shot if you want one. I said I think I will be able to get a shot if I want one. I would have like to have told her off but it’s getting to the point there is no Dr taking new patients here in Iowa . None. If I would have just hinted that I did not want to hear it From her I bet she would have sent me a letter 1 minute after I left her office. Would not have had the guts to tell me in person I am firing you for not taking the shot. I am sure liberal DR from Des Moines or Iowa city or quad cities. After doing a great job on my diet I got to listen to that crap and had the privilege to pay for it too. I will bet by Jan 1 government will force everyone to take the shot. No exceptions you watch.

It sounds like you have some precursors for a nasty case should you get one. Doctors are there to inform you that your decisions in life may harm you. Your doctor may have gotten the word from the Iowa Medical Association or the Iowa Dept of Health to push Covid vaccinations. You may not like hearing it, but the doc did the job.

I learned a long time ago that you’re darned if you do and darned if you don’t. If your doctor doesn’t push getting the vaccine you won’t have confidence in any medical advise in the future. But if the doctor does recommend vaccine, you’ll complain the doctor over stepped their bounds.

Go get your vaccine and this will protect the people around you should you get exposed before they get vaccinated.

Only heart disease and cancer claim more victims.

Doctors help and save many, many, many times more people then they accidentally kill. I am amazed how many people on Trapperman think doctors and other medical personnel are out to get them.

I thought I might have a little patch of psoriasis so I made an appointment with a dermatologist recently. He begins to grill me about how I should get the shot. I told him I had covid last September and I tested positive for antibodies. He tells me the antibodies are only good for 90 days. I pointed out to him that the "90 day" ideas was way out of date and that the most recent research indicates good antibodies for at least 5-8 months, and possibly much longer. He was not at all happy with me.

So the question is: Was the doctor just ignorant of the latest research? Or was he aware of the latest data, but just lying to me to get me to take the shot?
I don't like either scenario.

BTW, I tested just recently and still have antibodies; eight months now.

Pretty much this right here. States have lists of those that received the vaccination. Their health departments then cross reference this with various providers to see if that provider's clients have a lower rate of vaccination. Providers either through memos or meetings receive "pressure" to improve the vaccination rates of those that they serve.

According to a 2016 study led by Martin Makary, a professor of surgery at the Johns Hopkins University School of Medicine, medical errors in hospitals and other health care facilities are so commonplace that preventable deaths due to medical malpractice are the third leading cause of death in the United States. Their latest estimate found that approximately 251,000 lives are claimed each year because of medical error - about 9.5 percent of all deaths annually in the United States. This staggering number is higher than deaths caused by stroke, accidents or Alzheimer's.
Make sure to to listen to a professional. Or look up Nuremberg code prosecutions in Europe over vaccination due to medical experimentation without consent re vaccines

I was not implying doctors are out to get you , just making a mistake. Just normal human error. I used to live across the street from an OB/GYN. As medical malpractice insurance has gone through the roof for that speciality costing over $1million a year , later in his career he switched over to being a general practioner. I heard that trend is happening more and more.
If a mechanic screws up your car and the engine blows up , he is obligated to repair it on his dime. But no one hopefully gets hurt or dies.
Yes , I agree doctors save many , many lives. But they may not get a second chance to make things right like a mechanic.

It will be trapping season before you know it.


I got myself a seniors' GPS.
Not only does it tell me how to get to my destination,
it tells me why I wanted to go there.

Did you wear a mask while at the doctor's office?

Your body, your choice. A vaccine stops it, this is not a vaccine.

As we often see here on Tman, the opinions are well entrenched, and it's no different with many physicians.
It's always helpful to remind our docs that the patient-physician relationship is built on collaboration, not mandate.
Some docs, like some TMan'ers prefer mandate. Take a wild guess whose opinion a mandater prefers?
Yep.
Doc.

People is as people does.
