Current medical thinking on testosterone: Low Testosterone Linked to Hospitalization for COVID | MedPage Today
Note the dosages being discussed. Look at the hilarious tube of gel. Note the protective glove.
I’ve always thought that the only doctors worth a shit were surgeons. If you see one the shit has already hit the fan. And they are like a good mechanic.
One of my old mentors was an MD, PhD researcher and moonlighted as a state medical examiner backup. He said “Anyone can be a surgeon. It’s a highly specialized skill but it has to be learned, apprenticed and diligently practiced. But it’s not rocket science.”
GP’s are middlemen between Pharma and people.
Note: I did R&D for the largest pharma in the US. I have great respect for the scientists that work in earnest but not a fan of the real power of Pharma: marketers.
Any person with a modicum of interest in their health can bypass a GP.
Love it, John!
The few times I’ve been to see a primary care physician, I thought the PCP was not very keen to think & solve problems. It’s like they are following a script or giant recipe book of CYA. The bar is set so low, I’m satisfied if I get a doctor who isn’t a condescending asshole. The system is a mess.
Mostly agree. The problem with many surgeons is, well, they like to recommend surgery, and they are frequently wrong.
When your tool is a scalpel, everything is solved by cutting somebody open.
Doctors in general do their best work when you can tell them what is wrong. “I am bleeding profusely from this cut where my wife stabbed me,” or “I fell off a ladder and now my arm is broken.” All bets are off if they have to diagnose something vague.
I love how they seem to have arthritis as the fall back. Me: Doctor, I fell on some rocks while exiting the ocean, and jammed my finger. I think it may be broken. It hurts like hell now. Doctor: Hmmm…looks like its arthritis. Not much you can do.
That or degenerative disk disease. They’ve always got something to say right away instead of “I don’t know,” or “I’ll have to think about that.”

By the way, Ancel Keys sounds a lot like a certain megalomaniac nutcase "doctor" who's been spouting off about viruses for 40 years.
Fuckin A FBW! Especially the ribeye part! Just cooked up some charcoal seared, hickory smoked ribeyes. So damn good. Got some pasture raised chicken eggs in the fridge for the next batch of ribeyes per your recommendation!
