Re: Trying to figure out what is happening!!!
Fair enough. I appreciate your honesty.
However, I think that because most of us here, myself included, have been "wronged" by doctors, that we villify ALL doctors, which should not be the case in my opinion.
Doctors, like em or hate em, do have some important diagnostic tools that can help rule out other disease, or at the least narrow one's search for answers.
I never said AF doesn't exist. There is some misinterpretation going on here. I said I questioned people claiming they had healed AF, which is not a denial of its existence.
For instance, how do they know that they had AF? Were they diagnosed through testing, doctor diagnosis (Naturopath obviously)? How do we know that they did not heal something else? Like candida, NAFLD, leaky gut, CFS, parasites? What qualifies as healed? Lack of symptoms? etc. This is my inquiry and if you've been searching for answers to health for any period of time, you question things as opposed to taking everything for granted because I/you/we have tried several things that have probably made things worse and set us back.
There's nothing wrong with offering advice on here, but when someone discounts someone elses experiences because they don't align with theirs(as wired and feo are doing to me), problems arise.
Wired does not hold a monopoly on the AF forum and therefore, should have no power to remove posts or move them just because someone doesn't agree with him. If his arguments were worthwhile, he should have no problem discussing them and providing evidence to back his claims. Instead, he seems intent on removing posts that aren't in agreeance with his views.
Its been said countless times that some things don't work for everyone, so for me to be deemed a troll because I have a different view of diet than others is outrageous and only hurts the people seeking answers to their health problems.
I've been down the low carb path. It didn't work. Maybe it'll work for some, but not all. Other views should be allowed to be expressed that don't necessarily support the views of others just because they have been on CZ longer than me.
