I know how it feels to be in pain, desparate, fed up with doctors... and the medical system in general.
I've been through the ringer, myself. I had my tonsils removed at age 5. My appendix at age 25. And I was diagnosed with Lyme disease in 2017. I've experience back pain that feels like getting stabbed with a knife. My Lyme disease test results came back with "5 hot bands" when you only need 2 hot bands to be considered Lyme positive. My Lyme progressed to the point where I had a 102-degree F fever and a case of meningitis (unofficially). I didn't want to go to the hospital because I knew the only solution would be IV-antibiotics.
"I think one of the things that really separates us from the high primates is that we’re tool builders. I read a study that measured the efficiency of locomotion for various species on the planet. The condor used the least energy to move a kilometer. And, humans came in with a rather unimpressive showing, about a third of the way down the list. It was not too proud a showing for the crown of creation. So, that didn’t look so good. But, then somebody at Scientific American had the insight to test the efficiency of locomotion for a man on a bicycle. And, a man on a bicycle, a human on a bicycle, blew the condor away, completely off the top of the charts.
And that’s what a computer is to me. What a computer is to me is it’s the most remarkable tool that we’ve ever come up with, and it’s the equivalent of a bicycle for our minds.” ~ Steve Jobs
