Re: ??Is HBOT worth it???

[Guest guest]

-I think citing a lack of studies is a very good reason to question a

treatment even if there are no studies as you say on ANY of

them...that does not mean we give an auto pass on all of

them. " generally " safe gives me the chills - bc that is what they

say of vaccines, frankly, and there are no long term studies on THEIR

safety either..and I think it is MORE than reasonable to bitch about

the lack of them...it is LAME what has been perpetrated on our

children and our families...even Goldberg, who does vaccinate, does

not do a bunch at a time, VERY conservatively spaced, some dropped al

together bc the diseases are not serious enough or really a

statistical threat...sanity in medicine seems a good choice...and I

think the remark posted about Dr. N not counting the unfortunates is

something that we should all pay attention to...Dr.G went to UCLA and

knew Lovass and one of his issues with the research supporting ABA

that everyone cites and uses to get funding just for ABA at the

expense of other approaches is, according to him, based on a lie...he

knows that kids were turned down to particiape in that study bc they

were too affected and low functioning, hence the end results were

manipulated to make the approach seem more effective than it may

actually be...there is a lot of monkey business even in the research

end of things...G's attitude is blood panels, scans, hard scientific

proof that a kid is well AND I want to see that kid jump up, play,

perform as expected in school and social situations - no visible

signs of illness or psychiatirc distress and no signs of it in all

the labs and other tests work either - THAT is rehabilitated, per

him, and recovered from this thing...that is what it should always

look like...Di He ahs not seen that with the HBOT kids and he has

seen spec scans that confirm his worst fears of parts of the

brain " lighting up " thjat should just NOT as well as immune issues

presenting that were not there BEFORE HBOT in some of his

patients...his dislike is not one based on theoretical misgivings it

is based on his own case experiences of kids in his practice who is

treating who have been harmed by this specific intervention...that

was what he recounted to us anyway....Di-- In
