Lots of interesting things to say about customer service in the medical world.

Curcumin may be a potential drug in lung cancer stem cells elimination and cancer therapy.

These results suggested that curcumin inhibit lung cancer invasion and metastasis by attenuating GLUT1/MT1-MMP/MMP2 pathway.

1)Nice way to reply to a topic like this without any substance.

2)There are other ways of treatment in some circumstances and there are also potential treatments. Don't believe me, pay me for my time and I'll compile a list for you.

3)Suppose someone is chronically ill and they want to smoke weed. Let them have it. In fact, if any adult that wants to smoke weed, let them have it. I'm sure Stossel would agree.

Now I hope he fully recovers because he's an awesome individual who's done a lot to spread liberty and free markets..

You can get lung cancer from too much arsenic in the water.

In the intensive care unit, night after night, machines beep, but often no one responds. Nurses say things like "old machines," "bad batteries," "we know it's not an emergency." Bureaucrats don't care if you sleep. No one sues because he can't sleep.


You would get better sleep anywhere but in a hospital. It is not about the comfort of the patient, it's about the comfort of the workers and the bureaucrats.

Unfortunately they need to have telemetry and all kinds of other monitoring (round the clock lab tests and assessments) for critically ill or post-op patients, otherwise they'd be wide open for a lawsuit if anything went awry. It is far from ideal, no doubt, and I'd just suggest a pharmaceutical sleep aid if you're in an environment like that that's causing insomnia.

One size does not fit all. It's kind of what the forum is all about.

Yes, definitely hit them up for some good drugs.

He has said before he was not a smoker. He did deny that second hand smoke harms anybody. http://www.politifact.com/punditfact/statements/2014/dec/11/john-stossel/fox-business-pundit-no-good-data-deaths-secondhand/

He was promoting vaping at one time.

I guess he's taken very early action and prognosis is good, as of today. He 20% of a lung removed.

Stossel has said some unbelievable bullsh!t about the exchange of liberty for security, but I think that we definitely need him around. He's not a shill like that guy known as glenn beck - Stossel is mostly good and I do enjoy his show. Who knows how much of Stossel is influenced by the network. I used to love freedom watch too, but I'm pretty sure Judge Nap was not going to fall in line, so the network Swann'd his a$$.

And avoid Radon Gas IN THE HOME (and stuff like Polonium spiked tea, sketchy sources of kool-aid or Radium contamination, in general).
