“Because Lilly markets Cymbalta as the “go to” antidepressant for patients who have both depression and physical pain. This is not really a “depression screening test” at all. Instead, it is a “Cymbalta-requester” screening test. WebMD is telling the public a big lie. They say that “this content is selected and controlled by WebMD’s editorial staff” when in fact the crucial aches and pains questions was selected by Eli Lilly’s marketing team to encourage patients to ask their doctors for Cymbalta. The company’s blatantly deceptive techniques are particularly ironic given that WebMD’s CEO, Wayne Gattinela, likes to talk up “transparency” in interviews about his company. Clearly, WebMD would never allow transparency to get in the way of an Eli Lilly payday.” via carlatpsychiatry.blog…

Regular pain killer use harms your hearing? Huh, regular rain thriller ewes arms your healing? New York, NY, March 1, 2010 In a study published in the March 2010 issue of The American Journal of Medicine, researchers determined that regular use of aspirin, acetaminophen and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) increases the risk of hearing loss in men, particularly in younger men, below age 60. A third of people in their 40s already suffer some hearing loss. But that rock and roll cranked up on headphones sure was good. I want periodic ear stem cell therapies so that I can listen to lots of loud music. Hearing loss is the most common sensory disorder in the US, afflicting over 36… (Source: FuturePundit)

What a perfect way to end a shitty week, strep throat. It never ceases to amaze me how I end up with this crap.In general I having been feeling pretty good. Physically I thought I was doing well. I did end up going to a massage therapist to help with the after effects of the torso/surgery issues. I felt pretty good getting up off the table and my torso was doing so much better though when I went to stand up straight whatever she did caused my lower region to cramp. I was doubled over in pain for most of that day. Too bad that happened at nine in the morning. I worked the remainder of the day with the help of drugs.
