If a relative died of a disease you were told was incurable & you found there's BEEN a cure for decades but Drs. refused to use it, would you sue?

If i found a lawyer to take it up I would. There shouldn't be someone or a group to decide the use of medicine. ALL discoveries are public domain. Free and clear to use.

[FunkyMonkee]

Correct! Like, with your sister, her Dr. was ready to just let her die!! In the meantime, there were nearly 400 known natural cures!! I mean, if you're GONNA BE a Dr., isn't part of your job to keep abreast of all the latest tech in your chosen field? And, if you're worth your meddle, it shouldn't make a diddly damn bit of difference how much money YOU make by saving that person's life!! Did I ask YOU for anything? HELL NO!! It's NOT AT ALL about the money!!! It's ALL about the life being saved!!!
I nearly drowned when I was about 8 years old and some teenager kid jumped in and saved my life!! Once my parents found out who he was and contacted him to thank him, they offered him money and he refused to take it!! He didn't do it to make money, he did it to save me!! Same here!! I have no interest in getting money for helping you!! I saved her!! That's good enough!! Too bad Drs. don't see it that way!! All they know is, MONEY!!!
I have to wonder what her Dr. said when she showed up again well after the time the Dr. thought she'd be dead?

[Cidknee]

And she is STILL going strong. Thank you!

[FunkyMonkee]

Glad to hear it!! Quite welcome!!

[Cidknee]

That's what I do.

[DryGermanGuy]

This doesn’t happen. It’s in the same realm as sovereign citizen travel rights or Barack Obama birther conspiracy nonsense. But you do you! Waste your time and money being a kook, let us know how it ended.

[FunkyMonkee]

NOOOOO, not much!!
Except that the birth certificate IS fake!!
I already did, several times and saved every life!! At least 2 of them are here at GAG!! Had they listened to their Drs., they would've been dead at least a year ago!! NOW what's your excuse?

[DryGermanGuy]

I’m seriously wondering why the local HMO/HCP hasn’t already snatched you up as a miracle doctor, paying you 250k a year? Don’t they see the millions that they could make from your incense treatments and palm-healing?

[FunkyMonkee]

Because a healed patient is no longer a patient! They don't make money from healthy people.

[Cidknee]

Never mind here FM. Some think there are no conspiracies.

[DryGermanGuy]

Riiight… 🙄
Good luck with that lolsuit. It’s a lolsuit, because it will get laughed out of court. If you can even find a lawyer unscrupulous enough to file that.

[Cidknee]

This is true DGG! The doctors are well protected.

[FunkyMonkee]

@Cidknee This is quite true!

[DryGermanGuy]

@Cidknee
Either that or the whole medical sector goes for scientific facts only, instead of believing what the Gypsy fortune teller on the country fair has scribbled on a paper scrap. Oh, which could it be… 🤔

[Sal_Monella]

Who would I sue?
I couldn't afford the lawyer and there's would find a loophole.

[FunkyMonkee]

The Dr., the medical "industry".

[Sal_Monella]

They would hire a better lawyer and eviscerate me.

[Sal_Monella]

But class action suits can work.

[exitseven]

I might if it was negligence.

[FunkyMonkee]

The Dr. knew about the cure all along but refused to let them have it and claimed it never existed or that it doesn't work so, s/he's not wasting their time on it.

[exitseven]

sue the pants off her.

[In_Trance]

nope
