"When many cures are offered for a disease, it means the disease is not curable" -Anton Chekhov
''Once you tell people there's a cure for something, the more likely they are to pressure doctors to prescribe it.'' -Robert Ehrlich, drug advertising executive.
"Opinions are like sphincters, everyone has one." - Chris Rangel
Sidelined: Apologies for the lack of posts. Illness - in my family and in my patients - is wreaking havoc on my schedule. An intestinal virus is making its way through our family, and the hospital load has been heavier than usual. Woke up this morning thinking I had two patients to see only to discover on arrival at the hospital that I had five. So much for getting up early to get home in time to take my daughter to orchestra rehearsal. Oh, well. Such is life for a doctor, and for a doctor's family. posted by Sydney on
