No doubt. No doubt. I've tried some of the light & laser therapies for pain/joints. Didn't take, but it has worked for some at my "alternative doctor's" practice.

Hey y'all, just popping in to say hi before bed. Have a good night and enjoy the show.

Hi ya Rev, sorry you can't stay, good show tonight.

Dixie Butcher · Post by **Dixie Butcher** » 01-14-2007 12:07 AM

Hey Rev - good to see you. Colts? why not. No point in being a Redskins fan these days, sheesh. Joe Gibbs put all his eggs in the Indiana/Tony Stewart basket, may as well go with a Hoosier team, too.

I know Stewart is a Colts fan... (when his boss ain't lookin'...)

Dixie I missed that, what did she say about hospice people, had to be away from the radio for a few minutes.

That is weird, I have never been measured at the DMV, never heard of that and have had a license in three states, Michigan, California and Florida, have always filled out a form and wrote down what my height is.

This show is so refreshing and it's so wonderful to FINALLY here a lengthy discourse on the radio about the benefits of opiods and not hear doctors and others demonizing them.

That caller was absolutely right - opiods will not make you an addict unless you're already so inclined to be that way, but the drugs themselves do not make an addict. Society and the DEA have propagandized them to death. And that jackass Rush Limbaugh didn't do anyone any favors, either with all his bad publicity. He's clearly a classic addictive personality and a good doctor can spot that a mile away.

For anyone reading later interested in all this I encourage you to visit The American Pain Foundation to learn more.

The caller & Dr. Chen were both lauding the hospice system and how it's just so much "mo' bettah" if you can swing it.

The caller & her sister had an experience where their sister went to the light & told them about it, & after she died they could still hear her voice, distantly, talking to them from the ether.

Having benefited from hospice myself, I have only wonderful things to say about it.

Totally agree Dixie, great education tonight for all of us.

Thanks for filling me in on the Hospice statement Dixie, I did hear the part about the woman going to the light.

I love the earlier male caller who called Ian's doctor (who refused to give him pain meds & told him to take Advil, which Ian had already tried - duh!!!) a Neanderthal.

And the male caller who pointed out that doctors will hand out pain meds to males readily, but make females jump through 1,000 hoops - that was interesting, but with they'd expanded more.

I wonder what the caller was basing that on? When I think of various friends of mine, it does seem to have some credence... and Dr. Chen didn't seem to disagree, esp. with OBGyn types...

Thanks to Dot, Merchant Gal, West Border and Dixie for your input here tonight, memorable show tonight, and thanks to West Borders wife for her expert statement, she is a registered nurse.
Great show Ian, you rock as usual, thank you Dr. Chen for being honest.

Ian is filling in for Art tonight as there is a problem with the phones out or something to that effect, not sure.
