Unknown to most patients, “Another Side” information
makes sense of limited mainstream medical options.

The System

When national health care was in its infancy, people could get to see their GP even if they sat in a waiting room for a couple of hours. GPs weren’t tied to 5-10 minutes per patient and would follow surgery with house calls. GPs worked closely with Cottage Hospitals and they took patients to do procedures and minor surgery themselves. As the local hospital services were diminished and amalgamated with city mega hospitals, local services for patients dwindled and GP involvement covering community integrated care of continuous generations declined.  GPs, district nurses and midwives knew family histories, giving vital clues to know their patients’ needs.  In some ways this seems to have morphed into something resembling a glorified triage role for GPs based on money and politics.

Not discounting some GP surgeries which have good reputations regarding appointments, patients can now be seen by any number of GPs who don’t know them, refer to notes, prescribe drugs or refer elsewhere for tests and consultations.  In some cases this would depend on getting an appointment which could take days whilst the help they needed was absent or they had to visit A&E or call an ambulance.  The distance to city hospitals has even meant catastrophe for some as ambulance waiting time has increased.  The Guardian newspaper Health Editor’s column of Friday 24 May 2024 headlines, “Millions wait more than 14 days for GP appointment in England.”

Referring to the cyber attack of 3rd June 2024, a quote from the Daily Mirror, Saturday 22nd June 2024 column headlines “NHS Data is ‘published’ by hackers”,  “Spreadsheets containing financial arrangements between hospitals and GP services and Synnovis were also published, it has been claimed.  The firm provides blood test results across Southeast London.”  This could have some revealing ramifications.  It is interesting that not all papers mentioned this aspect. 

On the plus side, large city hospitals get funding for more equipment, and specialist staff can gather into teams for the benefit of patients and progress, but why do local hospitals have to be diminished and even closed? Why can’t they be updated to suit local needs and work in conjunction with city hospital facilities and expertise?   What has limited the options for progress with local GP and hospital services?

Health Care Medicine

Comments by one of the governors of the NHS Trust summed it up this way, “The system is well intended but fundamentally flawed by its sprawling nature.  It is the largest organization and employer in the UK.  There are a few rotten apples, about 10%, who evade ‘ousting’ owing to the difficulty in sacking policy and from top to bottom there is a disconnect.  Things get lost in the system”

GPs no longer have the autonomy of earlier times.  They are restricted from requesting certain tests which are now the domain of consultants upon referral from a GP.  They are restricted in prescribing certain drug types and amounts without the confirmation of a microbiologist. Importantly, they are limited by the restrictive Standard of Care protocols.  This goes along with the banning of well-used safe drugs, like Ivermectin, and the use of repurposed drugs which no longer hold a profitable patent and come into conflict with Standard of Care prescription lists. 

In recent years long-term safe procedures and treatments have suffered restrictions based on political and financial motives.  This is to the detriment of patients.  For example, for those whose kidneys are inadequate in making erythropoietin (EPO), which promotes red blood cell production in the bone marrow (not referring to dialysis patients), which for 20+ years has research and use confirming this as a safe treatment, reducing the need for blood transfusions in cancer and non-cancer patients.  Why has this established research and evidence of safe use been ignored, replacing it with research to the contrary which seems to bear no evidence of unsafe EPO therapy or of supposed receptor sites to trigger cell growth. However, EPO is available if a patient is receiving chemotherapy, from which substantial income is generated, “money in”.  Expensive treatments are “money out”.  Hmm.  Ah, patients can pay a consultant for private treatment with EPO though.  Another example is of a GP who was asked for a stool test to identify any bacterial or parasitic infection because of persistent diarrhoea.  The GP’s response was, “Yes if you follow up with hospital investigations, otherwise, no.”  ‘money in’.  At first glance it would appear more like a financial balance sheet than healthcare for people in need.  This raises questions.  National Insurance is supposed to provide funding for health care so why are doctors burdened with ‘money in’ and ‘money out’ bringing automatic censorship to administering the best and appropriate medical treatment?  The issue is not lack of funding but fundamental political issues. Some research will reveal eye-opening hidden agendas and money movement.

Where is national healthcare going?   Over the past few months the most prevalent comment I have heard amongst hospital staff is that the system is broken.  I am reminded of the governor's quote, “The system is well intended but fundamentally flawed by its sprawling nature… “

The Staff

Many doctors, nurses and consultants are disgruntled at the current state of affairs. Step out of line and jobs, licenses and pensions could be at risk. It would seem like a medical mafia is pulling the strings.  Our healthcare system is blessed with many dedicated staff who came into their profession because they wanted to help people.  Practitioners now have the burdensome task of generating income and trying to give patients the best whilst complying with financial and treatment restrictions.  Should our doctors and nurses be treated like this?  Should they have to struggle for pay commensurate with their work and responsibility?  Should patients suffer because of it?

Way Forward

More and more healthcare staff are joining the integrative and functional medical ranks.  Scientists, professors, consultants, GPs, nurses and midwives are finding positive results with freedom from introduced restraints and updated information on how to treat the unanticipated fall-out from the debacle of the past few years.

Regardless of the possibilities of where current healthcare trends are going, there are things we can all do to increase general health, despite the myriad efforts to degrade our food, water and air.  A lifestyle of detoxification, hydration and individual nutritional adequacy is a good basis to prevent avoidable ill health. Putting in the effort to search through pod-casts, videos, website sites and social media to find practitioners and scientists who are up to date with information on how to recover (from Covid for example) and stay well, will be well rewarded.  Many have books and email subscriptions for updates.  Being aware of negative current events is a basis for choosing a positive and better way of life whilst time and tide slide by in the background.

Isaiah 26:20-21: come my people, enter your houses and shut your doors behind you, hide yourselves for a little while until the wrath is passed. Behold, the Lord is coming out of his place to judge the inhabitants of the Earth for their iniquity, the Earth will disclose the blood that has been spilled on it and will no longer hide proof of those murders.

Details of end times events (of this politico-economic system) are all through the Bible, the worlds best seller.  Putting scriptures together from Genesis, the prophets, gospels, epistles and the book of Revelation, matches what we are seeing come to pass now in the 21st century.  Many other ancient writings contain similar accounts.  

Is this the time to take back responsibility for our own health, working with those practitioners and professionals who respect our choices, have access to all relevant laboratory tests and see health in a new and exciting way forward?

There is a series on Netflix called New Amsterdam.  It is a dramatized series exposing the long term rigged medical system along with remedies for a new way forward for health.  It is already happening in the functional medicine and Epigenetic health sectors but the Netflix series is on the general public platform.  I highly recommend this series which I have only just come across.
