Dunno. If you hear on Facebook about someone with the same symptoms as you having success with a different treatment because your doctor is too overworked to read the latest research, is that really a bad thing?

[–] brot@feddit.org 3 points 1 year ago (1 children)

The question is if the latest research is real research. You know, by doctors and scientists, research institutions, with peer review and well, science or if it is some pseudo science or someone peddeling snake oil

It's mostly the latter, but it's sometimes the former.
