Re: some red flags

Medical staff have licenses to protect, they are under the leash of the established practices. For instance, the Board of Nursing sounds like a benign organization that works with nurses. In fact, they often hang nurses for screwing up in the name of protecting the public. A nurse doesn't even have to screw up, it could have been an old teenage ticket for misbehavin' that they "discovered" through their means and put someone out of work. Think about it, 2 years, now 4 years for a BS degree in nursing and you've got to answer to a Board for anything that you do deemed out of order past, present, or intential future.

Conventional Medicine isn't joining anything other than what it perceives as a monopoly.

Think about this for a moment, anyone reading this, a person that has studied the same stuff and is equivalent in knowledge, but without a degree, license, or board over their shoulder has MUCH more freedom to pursue non-conventional therapies that could work better, or sometimes worse. The one benefit of an education, or at least prolonged study of all the body's systems, is the wholistic knowledge that one acquires to comtemplate the inter-system functional mechanisms that guide how the body functions. The big "protective" agencies that perpetuate the monopoly on medicine tend to discredit/destroy alternative modalities, regardless of efficacy. On one hand, that sounds like it could be a useful feature to remove dangerous and useless healing modalities, but on the other, it is easily abused in a monopoly.

For example, if someone's Blood Pressure jumps up really high, there are many potential triggers causing the jump. A critical analysis of a person's body and systems could pin-point the exact cause and offer insight into treatments. If a person has been out in the heat all day, then suddenly develops tachycardia mid-day, it could very likely be dehydration. But, some people run high heart rates as their basal rates, it takes some questions and history to understand another person fully without jumping to conclusions.
