- lucidguru, on 11/13/2007, -0/+1Dying from organ failure (e.g. kidney, heart, liver)--> Lifespan usually 1 to 2 year.
Dying from AIDS --> Lifespan ~10 years and usually longer with antiretrovirals.
Regardless, these recipients are still getting a longer life because of the transplant. They will have to take immunosuppressants for the rest of their lives anyway to prevent organ rejection so it will be just another med that they take.
The real effects are that this will probably end their marriages, and ruin their sex lives. What fun is life without sex? - SeethisPass, on 11/14/2007, -0/+1The article starts out with a false statement.
The organ donor didn't infect anyone. The doctors, who get paid to make sure they are installing a healthy organ infected them.
Doctors can only do three things for you. They can set broken bones or do other carpentry work, They can cut something out of you, but most likely, they will put expensive chemicals into you that you don't get from food and wouldn't eat.These on average do more harm than good.
If I need carpentry I'll go to a doctor.but ,so far,I haven't needed an astoundingly expensive carpenter.
I think I want to keep all of my parts unless they rot. None have, I keep them working hard.so they don't have time.
The chemicals are much more of a problem than a help.
The result is that I never ever go to doctors.
Now late in my life I am in much better health than most others of my age and mileage who get frequent checkups leading to high doses of chemicals that are not good for them.
.Doctors kill more people than any other cause.
The most damaging thing about organized medicine is that they all believe that they know all about chemistry and how it helps the human body. In truth they currently know almost nothing at all about chemistry and whether it helps or hurts. It's just very,very profitable.
A hundred years time will make them all appear as alchemists and blood letters.
True medicine will find that the energy that holds our heath together is not found in chemistry. It is more likely found in an energy form. No energy = no health.
Chemicals are most likely to reduce your health giving energy, not add to it.
Stay alive by avoiding the doctors "help" If you can. They blame others for their lack of care, and knowledge
