pitt83 - 2008-06-24 8:50 PM Done, but I take exception with the content. The day we take sound MEDICAL advice from Men's Health magazine, we'd all be better off putting a bullet in our mouths. You mean to tell me that seomhow, a magazine which espouses recipies created from opening a can of stuff and slathering it on meat and for "Drive your woman crazy" is somehow qualified to inform about medications? I think not. " crazy bad side effects": You ignore the statistical argument. In the VAST percentage of patients (no drug is 100% safe in 100% of the population), the risk / benefit ratio is far in favor of sensible use of medication to relieve symptoms and ameliorate disease. My issue with your position is that it came across that it's never a good idea to consider any of the medications in the discussion. You basically validate the position of Men's Health and didn't advocate that in MANY patients, these and most all script and OTC medications are great, safe and effective tools for disease and trauma relief. Yes alternatives exist (ice instead of celebrex is sensible for acute sprain but not for OA/RA), but the whole story overplayed the risk side of the equation and bolstered the authenticity of "Men's Health" at ignoring such journals as "JAMA" or "New England Journal of Medicine".

chadtower - 2008-06-25 10:06 AM Really, halfway through the interview, you should have stood up and yelled: FORGET THE STUPID DRUGS! GET OFF YER FAT KEISTER AND RUN! BIKE! SWIM! YOU SEE THESE QUADS? YOU THINK I GOT THESE QUADS FROM A GODDAM MEDICATION?! STOP WATCHING DAYTIME TV AND GO OUTSIDE FOR CHRIST'S SAKE! HTFU AND TAKE ACCOUNTABILITY FOR YOUR HEALTH! Then you smack the host. When he asks why you say "because I can" and leave.

HA that was back stage - and then at the end of the segment Mike and I high fived and I hit so hard that he turned to the audience saying 'OW she hits hard!'

so did you read the Men's Health Article?

uhm the data they pointed to about Advair is from the NEJM - in fact it led to the BLACK BOX warning that all LABAs have now.

did you listen to what I said? in the appropriate patients and for appropriate lengths of time these drugs have a place. That in fact I use advair personally!

it was a 3 minute 42 second piece on DAYTIME tv
