When it comes time to have someone stick a 3.5 inch needle blindly in my neck to place a transvenous pacer to save someone's life please call the board certified intensivist for me when I have my heart attack because a jock didn't ride to the wire. Just bustin' you buddy I am actually very fond of most of your opinions. :D

Where did I say the Bold, I don't even know about physican shortages or training nurse? I don't even know what a training nurse is.....

Scavs if I have you wrong obviously I fall on my sword but I was pretty sure about this from about 4-6 months ago.

If you are falsely accused I have no reason to take you at your word my friend.

By definition Kev there is no cure for disease characterized by lapses and remission. You can improve the length of remission but never cure it like an infection.

I just disagree with the "no effective treatment" part of your statement. To each his own I guess.

The ego of so many physicians is simply out of hand.The truth is that the major requirement to be a physician is to be smart,and that's not as rare as you would hope.The greed of these people can't be measured .It's off the scale.Give some top nurses more and more training,and you've got a much better caregiver than these bitter people looking for more and more money.They want more and more money,because they went into something for the pay and the prestige.They usually didn't do it because they had a calling to be spending their time with sick people.Just give me a nurse with extra training.When people realize they can't afford to keep paying so much of their money for healthcare,then they will start to figure it out,but until then it's gunna stay messed up.Wait until the general election gets going,and you'll see the AMA dump their money into McCain's pockets.Whatever it takes to keep good medical care rare and expensive.
