Robert Beckman 1264 Views ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  ,  , 

Blind Spots, a recent book by Marty Makary, is an in-depth analysis of how medicine gets it so wrong in some significant public health cases, frequently due to groupthink. Specifically, in the chapter “A Comedy of Errors,” Makary relates how his team “noted the same patterns of medical elites ruling by edict and kneecapping the brave souls who challenged their dogma.” All this misguided “science” that leads to misdirection in medical practice is a good segue to the current medical and policy debate in a running gun battle with reports of “Havana Syndrome”, aka Anomalous Health Incidents (AHI).

If rangers in the National Park Service were experiencing among their wildlife populations the equivalent of what DoD and the VA call “the suicide epidemic”, they would not ignore immediately available solutions. They would move heaven and earth to understand the crisis, and find antidotes or vaccines, or any treatments that would save the wildlife. Yet the culture in the VA – their “arrogance of ignorance” – prevents Veterans and their caregivers from knowing about or receiving immediate help available with HBOT and other alternative therapies.

If you want to help end suicides, you have to help heal Brain Wounds so that Service Members have a chance at a lifetime of health, not a moment of relaxation from pain and suffering. Now get out there and refer the brain wounded to us and lobby those VSOs and your state legislatures to join in the functional medicine approach to helping restore health and Quality of Life to the wounded and their families. Get the VSOs to fund and lobby hard at the state and federal levels to actually help heal brain wounds.

CALL FOR ACTION: Seeking to interview Citizens or Veterans with Diabetic Foot Ulcers (DFUs) which may have led to amputations

The US Veteran’s Administration, and too many hospitals, continue to mismanage the clinical evaluation and timely care of the estimated 2.2 million diabetic Veteran population at risk for Diabetic Foot Ulcer limb amputation. This failure on the part of the VHA has resulted in substantially higher Lifetime costs, morbidity, mortality and a tragic reduction in Veteran length and quality of life that is well below that of the Medicare civilian population statistical comparators as reflected in this report.
