Everyone has heard
to always get a second opinion.
to always get a second opinion.
I’m here to tell you the more opinions you get the more confused you will be when concerning your health or that surgery you're contemplating.
I recently not only had a second opinion, but a third opinion then decided to go one step further with alternative medicine and was even more confused. Every opinion I got was conflicting.
Where do I turn? Dr. Google? Most PCPs and specialists dislike when their patients turn to Google.
Your doctor may have graduated and interned 20 years ago whereas Google is updated 24-7 seven days a week on all kinds of information from celebrity gossip, sports, and vital medical information.

Why do doctors frown on Google? They want your business, and your money and do not 
want to be outsmarted by a search engine after spending thousands of dollars and time on med school. The doctors will tell you much of the info is false and listed by quacks. This may be true, but it is there for us to decipher. There are also doctors that are great and those that are quacks, it is for us to interpret.

Just a reminder, it's easy, simple, and costs nothing to type into the Google search engine
and ask any question you would ask a doctor.

Whenever I have a question about my medical health I turn to Dr. Google, and sometimes I even ask Siri.
Another thing to remember it's like changing your answer on a final exam. When confused,
they say 95% of the time your first answer was the correct answer. Therefore I have found my first doctor in almost every case I have gotten multiple opinions wound up being my final choice and even more trusted than Google.

The main thing is to stay healthy; a healthy diet is essential.
The current trend these
days is to have plant-based food. Fast food restaurants even have plant-based burgers and chicken. Panda Express now has its famous orange chicken in a plant-based veggie style format made out of beets called "Beyond Chicken" and Burger King has its world-famous Whopper called the "Impossible Whopper" made out of soy protein.

This got me thinking why
not invent meats that taste like vegetables? A hamburger that tastes like mushrooms and calls it "Impossible mushrooms" or chicken that tastes like Kayle and call it "Beyond Kayle?"(LOL)

Bottom line;
Follow your gut,
follow your instinct, and as the expression goes;

Getting old may not be fun, but keeps you on your toes and sure is funny that is if you can remember what you've done!

I too use Dr Google all the time - it’s great that we’re able to access the information like we can!
Even my new PCP encourages Google!
If I had any medical symptoms I will always check Google - rather than see a Doctor. I’ve had friends go to the Dr for a cold and I’m like: “Really? For a cold?! You’re going to pay your Dr just to tell you to rest and drink plenty of fluids?! 🤪
Bill, Good and valid points!

Mr Rosen, I find your articles absolutely ridiculous. I have no idea why TGI keeps publishing them because they are not informative nor do they have content that is even amusing. I hope no one with any sense goes and gets a 3rd or 4th medical opinion or uses Dr Google.
Honey Gurl from the above Garden Island comments is one of my nemesis and is really a dude who is full of hate. Aloha and God bless Honey Gurl!
