Hello G, I read everything and in fact I am probably full of information overload. Yeah, the ED ads are funny. Viva Viaga makes me laugh. I get ten million of those things in my email junk folder. I think they would sell us our own urine if they got the idea. I mean think of this: Many people pay a buck for a bottle of water. For God’s sake, how stupid have people become? You know how it goes, once they see they can get away with it, they never stop and the price only goes up. Americans must learn to stop falling for continued sales pitches. Wally world has run everyone out of business and they abuse their workers and pay them peanuts, but Americans just keep flocking to the warehouse.
I think Americans have become trained consumers and they are like addicts on meth or something, not wanting to get off. The companies cater to people’s senses and desires, then sell you snake oil or anything they can get away with selling. As we see later on, many of the things they packaged and sold Americans, were bad for us and killed people…or were simply worthless. We need to get back to simplicity and honesty, but that’s a long ways off…due to people now days not paying attention and allowing media to rule their lives and raise kids too. That’s why I keep calling everything cultural communism. They have effectively induced a sort of psychological path that Americans see as normal…..as the old apple pie and base ball. Unfortunately it’s leading us all down the wrong path.
I stay away from Doctors as much as I can. I hope I can remain away from them for the rest of my life. I think common sense is the best medecine one can have…and judgment that is even. Most Americans are of the mentality that they must run to papa government, doctor, etc …whenever a crisis comes.

What’s even worse…being diagnosed with something and THEN looking it up on the web!

DON’T DO IT! Because if you weren’t dying before, you are now!

Russ… I totally agree! My looking up stuff didn’t happen til recent and it was due to a family members diagnosis. Looking to get myself ed-jumuck-ated on what was bout to happen. Lots of good out there with the bad when it comes to others experiences.

Waiting for Russ’s take on all the ED advertisements!

I checked my medical condition on Wikipedia. I suffered for years with it. It started in my early teens, and lasted till I was in my early 40’s. From my 40’s it started to go away slowly. The severity decreased a little ever year, till now in my 50’s it hardly bothers me at all.
It never scared me though. Yes, I suffered from the dreaded Priapism syndrome. Both wives were sympathetic during the early years of marrage but soon grew weary of my condition, although I was not allowed to seek treatment outside of my home.

It’s not just the internet. Notice the drug company commercials where they tell you to take some pill, then they tell you it might cause a heart attack or you might grow 7 more fingers or another head. All information must be looked at with an open mind, especially when it is something you might put into your body. The big drug companies of course want to sell you a pill for every breath you take and most people run to doctors as if they are Lords, when the actual facts are that Doctors kill a large percentage of patients. People have lost the ability to discern and to think or reason. Common sense needs to be taught in kindergarden, even though I am sure some people will never learn anything no matter how much they read or view or experience. It’s called genetics. People have becom little children dependent on government to tell them what to think and why to think it, how to think about and if it is really thinking. Just like the politicians they parade before us, all are their choices, not ours. It’s like going to McDonalds and being offered a cheeseburger, a cheeseburger, a cheeseburger,…….we really are not given any different choice. YOU WILL EAT IT AND YOU WILL LIKE IT, they say. Stupid people go along and are good little robots.
That’s why America is falling and falling fast, there are no more brains in this country that have the ability to make an independent thought about anything, without checking with some higher authority of the politically correct government baby-sitters who spy and distort reality about everything.

i looked up night sweats once and thanks to the power of the internet i convinced myself i had full blown AIDS. needless to say it at least motivated me to go and do something we should all have done by now…get tested. it also taught me a very powerful lesson: don’t look up medical information on the internet!

sign a waiver to give yourself permission… but if you feel the need to protect yourself from yourself then I will go with the understanding that you hysterically have “something”.
