No matter what about insurance, the healthcare system is part of the problem. Given my experience with it where I was clearly suffering where my body clearly was showing signs of suffering, you could measure oddities, but you had doctors who wanted it to be "anxiety" or some psychological issue of unknown origin. You even had one trying to argue with me about it while clearly distressed. Total Fucking Morons. Total Fucking Psychos. Learn to admit when you are just fucking flummoxed and push your terrible attitudes somewhere else. That's the American Healthcare system. The so called "#1" system.
I don't trust this healthcare system. I don't trust doctors. I'm always going to need to check and read up myself on what I think it is first before I take up any "medicine". I've never had a doctor know what it is before I did. I always have my suspects before contacting any doctor. Even in Japan, I had two suspects for what it was before a doctor was contacted. Doctor was there to confirm it and administer what was needed.
Some "professionals" and their aspiring types need to learn the value of logic and research. Anyone can sufficiently develop these skills and amass enough knowledge to develop heuristics. You do not need to be a doctor to know or learn of typical diagnoses, causes and symptoms. AI definitely helps with the democratization of that.
Any "doctor" or "professional" who seeks to be the smartest person in the room is the dumbest one. They are not to be trusted. They have stopped learning.
*Notice I did not block out any cursing because fuck this system. I truly detest it and those who portray themselves all knowing instead of just opinionated. What doctors did in the past isn't applicable today, why is that? A medical book is full of opinions that's why it changes, that's why it accommodates new knowledge, new observations.
