Fear, Testing, 'Treatment'

Good morning all. Firstly, this post is not to assault those who believe in allopathic treatment. You're free to choose. Am I alone in being frustrated? We do not have the freedom, to use our health insurance to seek; traditional, herbal, homeopathic, naturopathic, Ayurvedic, Unani, acupuncture, Chinese medicine, etc. We can pay cash but try finding any practitioner of traditional medicine in rural areas. Also being disabled legally forces the person to see an allopath. I literally cannot bear one more (iatrogenic) injury. They've done so many CAT scans & xrays on me over a decade. I just had 12 dental xrays done in past 2 weeks and now? New allopath wants at least, 12 more xrays done on my cervical & lumbar spine areas. Just had a cat scan. Every fiber of my being screams, "NOOO!".I know better. New dr now wants to check spinal areas that were injured by 2 separate surgeries/spinal tap. Every time I find a dr who accepts my insurance, they don't last long before leaving practice and the new one always wants many more scans. If I refuse orders, I could get into trouble. At least, 30,000 people, a year get cancer from unnecessary cat scans, alone. This new dr is a sweet, young lady but demanding of many invasive tests. How can I avoid getting into trouble with ss without sentencing myself to more injuries, illness and possible death? I have seen seemingly endless iatrogenic injuries and deaths in my life besides the ones, I've suffered. Many in my family work in various areas of allopthy. I love the doctors. It's their medicine, I despise... Why don't we have medical freedoms? The situation's grown much worse since Gary Null released 'Death By Medicine'. While true stats are hidden, they're findable. Several more books have been written concerning iatrogenesis, since. Also this dr said since I took the 21 days of Amoxicillian that, "You've had the treatment,you no longer have Lyme". So why do the same exact symptoms exist? I'm sick with fear. The constant nightmares of being trapped in a vast, dark hospital not being able to find a way out....while quiet people mill about ignoring me...when I attempt to stop one & ask for directions out? They morph into vampires and attack me...I have a longggg list of legitimate reasons why I'm afraid. Sorry this is so long. I need to find a way out of this. This new dr also wants me to get spinal injections, several vaccines, take drugs and this was only the 1st visit....This extreme fear and constant worry is not easy on my health. Does anyone have any ideas? I do not want conflict or to make things worse. I do not want to insult anyone. I just want to opt OUT of mandatory dangerous drugs, treatments & tests. Do I need an attorney or are they also powerless to over-ride the Rockerfeller health system? This has me torn up. If anyone else relates or has useful advice please, reply.
I cannot afford to move to a country with constitutional health freedoms.

Thanks again Cygnet. Sorry to hear of your situation, too & also wishing you the very best and TRUE healthcare options. Smacks of eugenics...What did bill gates say about expanding vaccines? .....If we do a really good job, we can decrease the population by 10%....something like that...I'd relocate to N India or even Mexico if I could but...you know...May God deliver many unexpected blessings upon you, Cignet. Grateful that you're eyes-wide-open, enlightened. Many people seem to accept these unnecessary iatrogenic illnesses,injuries,deaths & dangers, blindly....as unavoidable...

BlackTara, I understand that you're bound by the stipulations of your program.

Can you express your concerns nicely to your provider, stating you've already had several CT scans and don't want to risk further exposure of radiation?

Yes, MRI is a safer option, but to my knowledge, more expensive. So ask if you're able. I feel for you and pray you find a viable solution to your dilemma.

Yes there are some instances when CT is a better diagnostic tool - but for the spine I was told mris are the best.
If one is older - then a CT scan isn’t as much of a concern - but for children or younger adults I’d be cautious of them.

To have contrast you need to have fully functioning kidneys - it can be hard on them.

Re: cost - are they generally not covered by your insurance?

Here - they are covered if your Dr has requested one - but if not and I have chosen to do one - then I go to a private one.

I’m fortunate to have a dr who will investigate any issues I have and writes the requisitions but that isn’t always the case with docs.

Thank you all for your kind & helpful replies. I've decided to contact an attorney. I cannot bear 1 more toxic or injurious test or treatment. My good friend of 30 years (a nurse anesthetist) has said it's a miracle, I don't have cancer because of the many ct scans , xray series and radioactive contrast dyes beginning 23 years ago. I've made up my mind that NOW is the time to say, "NO" despite the consequences. My friend also said my compliance is going to end with me in an early grave. Funny, when a health care pro actually cares about you, their advice is completely different. They can repeatedly injure you but cannot be held accountable. I'm done.
