"Medical boards have gained tremendous power over doctors’ ability to practice medicine, and while standards are needed to protect patients, medical boards frequently misuse that power. License revocation and other career-ending punishments are being used to stifle free speech, free thinking and the open-minded investigation that should be a cornerstone of science itself.
Dr Mark Geier, a medical doctor with a PhD in genetics, lost his medical license in 2011 for using controversial chelation therapy to treat autistic children. After the Maryland Board of Physicians published a list of medicines prescribed to Geier, his wife and son on its website, Geier sued the board for harassment and won. Montgomery County Circuit Court awarded Geier $2.5 million in damages, calling it a significant breach of medical privacy; half of the damages must be paid out of pocket by the board’s appointees."

Comment:
The most significant part of this ruling is in the last paragraph whereby half the compensation must be paid out of pocket by the boards' appointees. The appointees exert significant influence in policy often at the behest of big pharma and occupy revolving door appointments between industry, legislature and regulatory bodies.
Dr Mercola goes onto say:
"The fact that the board members are being held personally liable is a first. Normally, taxpayers foot the entire bill when government officials are caught in wrongdoing. As noted by The Bolen Report, "What the officials of the Maryland Board of Physicians did was not in pursuit of the people's business. It was for pharma profit." Fortunately, this time the scheme backfired, delivering a very real sting.

He ordered 14 board appointees, the board's lead attorney and the lead investigator on the Geier case to pay half of the damages out of their own pockets, between $10,000 and $200,000 apiece, depending on their net worth."

This kind of absolute control has caused many doctors and dentists severe problems, and many have been struck off. One case that comes to mind is the late Dr Hal Huggins in the USA who advocated the removal of amalgam fillings and replacement with other non-toxic materials. The use of amalgam has now been banished in many countries, and it is universally accepted that it must not be used and yet Dr Huggins lost all his credibility.

Dr Huggins Wikipedia entry says:
Hal Huggins was an American campaigner against the use of dental amalgam fillings and other dental therapies that he believed to be unsafe. Huggins began to promote his ideas in the 1970s and played a major role in generating controversy over the use of amalgam. Huggins had his license to practice dentistry revoked in 1996 after a panel found him guilty of gross negligence. Since then, he continued to publish on the topic of mercury and human health and believed that dental amalgam and other dental practices were responsible for a range of serious diseases."

While I do not agree with some of Dr Huggins' claims that amalgam was at the heart of all illnesses and that these illnesses could all be treated successfully by detoxification and removal of amalgam, the fundamentals of amalgam removal have merit.

Other medical cases come to mind where the same therapy as used by Dr Mark Geier in Dr Mercola's article has landed a couple of doctors in serious trouble with the medical governing bodies. One was struck off, and the other suffered serious financial loss causing him to close down his practice because as soon as he was charged the stories were all over the newspapers. His affairs were gone through with a fine tooth comb, and he had to close his practice down. Eventually after much trauma and stress and the loss of hundreds of thousands of pounds he was found guilty only of poor record keeping. He has no means of recovering his losses for the blown up and trumped-up charges at the behest of some illegitimate and unfounded complaint; a complaint which could have been dealt with through some correspondence directly with the accused. He should sue, and the judges should award a similar out of pocket compensation. Such outcomes would stop dead in the tracks all the business manipulation that occurs all around us.

Dr Eustace Mullins writings come to mind in his publication "Murder by injection" the medical conspiracy behind the establishment of these governing bodies and their intimate connections with the medico-industrial complex. Mullins is one of the most accomplished investigative journalists of the 20th century. "Murder by injection" should be required reading for anyone interested in knowing how mainstream medicine has co-opted man's health and well being. Dr Eustace Mullins presents a superbly written, well-documented account of the myth that health care in the medical establishments is the best in the world. You will be startled to find that the main thing that is "best" about medical care is that both the medical and pharmaceutical industries are the best at extracting the wealth of countries and their citizens. Illness is perpetuated rather than resolved. Controls are exerted by the governing bodies to prevent some honest doctors from doing the best for their patients by actually finding relief for them through non-drug means. Tight controls are exerted to ensure that the practitioners work within sharply defined remits even if such practices cure absolutely no one ever.

"Exciting new application for MS poison and an additional disease added to the autoimmune family! An even more vulnerable group of patients to exploit" writes an 'MS' sufferer.







This article is an attempt to use an 'MS' drug for patients diagnosed with schizophrenia. For any readers information the drug, Natalizumab is administered by intravenous infusion; the recommended dose is 300 mg every 28 days. Natalizumab costs £1130 per 300 mg vial (according to the manufacturer's submission), so over a year, the cost of the drug is approximately £14,730 per patient. The drug costs are usually 10% of the overall cost of looking after a patient.

While on the other side of the pond a forum posting on the web reads:"Well I guess they charge more to the US government than to most insurance companies then? Cuz I'm on SS disability and it costs over $11,000 per month [$121,000 or £93,000 annually]. But then I know our (bought) Congress several years back signed a law that (unlike insurance companies) Medicare couldn't make any deals with the pharmaceuticals for lowered prices for any drugs (buying "bulk" and all). Sigh. Yes, these amounts are indeed outrageous."

In spite of millions of scientific claims, Disease Modifying Treatments (DMT's) are nothing more than drugs of little therapeutic value which are mainly killers of the immune system. An ‘MS’ patient of 29 who started treatment fully mobile, was left completely paralysed 9 years later having been treated with 6 different drugs [including Nataluzimab]. The main institute treating and advocating their use had the following to say to her'......

“The drugs are probably not working for you because you probably did not have ‘MS’ but you probably have Vasculitis”!


Here are some more postings from the same source proving the futility of Nataluzimab and other similar drugs for the treatment of the mythical 'MS' in the professors own words:

“#MSBlog MS is emotionally exhausting!

Posted: 14 Feb 2013 03:43 AM PST
"Being a neurologist, who sees MSers, a clinical scientist, who studies the disease, and one who puts his head above the parapet, it is getting increasingly hard not to disappoint people.

"One of the issues that I have underestimated is the psychological impact that MS has on you and your families. This is compounded by disappointment when science and medicine, which promises so much, fails to deliver. This is particularly acute for relapse-onset MSers when you pass from the relapsing into the secondary progressive phase of the disease and you realise that the disease-modifying therapies [immune system killer drugs] are not working or have not worked.

The professor continues:

"MS is a double-disease; it hits you twice!"

"The realisation that the DMTs have failed [including Nataluzimab] leads to the re-emergence of grief and the five emotional stages that go with it. The anger is more often than not directed at the medical team for being impotent to stop the disease; exposing our false promises, which were made to give you hope.
As a result of being an outspoken critic of therapeutic nihilism - the blight of our profession - a proponent of early aggressive treatment [including pushing Nataluzimab incessantly without success] and a disciple for the active and holistic management of MS, I seem to be taking more flak than most. It is emotionally exhausting!

"MS is a very personal disease and each MSer has their own story to tell. Researchers in general seem to forget this and simply think of MSers as a population of people with a disease. This is why our research day is so enlightening; the face-to-face interaction with MSers and their families makes you realise why you are doing what you do and its importance for individuals and their families. It helps you understand why MSers turn to alternative theories, and treatments, when science and modern medicine lets you down.

"As an MSer you need to know about the stages of grief and recognise your emotional reactions to the diagnosis and the onset of the progressive phase of the disease. The truth is we don't have any therapies to stop or slow disease progression, but we are working on it. If you have symptoms that are impacting on your quality of life we can help. You would be amazed what a difference symptomatic treatment can make to your life."

The scams are limitless:

In 2010, it was found that roughly 100,000 Americans die each year from prescription drugs alone. When it comes to opioids, the number of deaths is in the tens of thousands while a quarter of patients who were given a short-term prescription transitioned to long-term use.

Now, according to a recent Harvard University analysis, doctors who prescribe these pain-killers are being paid huge sums of money from their manufacturers.

The research, which was conducted by Harvard scientists and CNN, discovered that in 2014-2015 thousands of doctors were paid over $25,000 from opioid manufacturers and hundreds more were rewarded with six-figure sums. Also, the more opioids that were prescribed, the larger the reward.

Dear Dr Amir,
Thank you so much for all you did yesterday within a few minutes of arriving at your office. I feel so much better today. I thought I would e-mail what I can remember of the symptoms leading up to 12th August 2017 and then how I feel since my appointment with you 10 days later.

I watched a film on TV and my head was turned to the left for about 2 hours. When I woke the next morning, my neck was stiff and painful on the left side. I presumed this was from watching the film at first but the pain spread rapidly and surrounded my ear, jaw, collarbone, shoulder blade, lower back and calf, all down the left side of my body.

Then during the early hours of 12/8/17, I awoke to experience the room spinning, although this only lasted for 10-15 seconds, it felt like an eternity. This continued to happen whenever I laid down or turned over. It also occurred on bending my head over or down. On getting up from a sitting position I felt very unsteady and extremely nauseous with a headache that seemed to encompass my whole head with shooting pains like electric shocks.

This continued along with the pain and discomfort all down my left side over the next 10 days. I felt so ill, I avoided laying down by propping myself up on several pillows preventing me from turning in bed. The few times I managed to sleep I woke up with severe pains in my neck and severe headache. During the day I had to only sit around because I felt very unsteady and very ill. I did everything I could to avoid any movement that would cause the spinning. I call it spinning because it is far worse than dizziness.

I contacted you but you were away. The doctor said I had some crystals in the ear organ and that is why I was dizzy. On the 22/8/17, some 10 days after my symptoms started, my appointment could not have come sooner.

The journey up was awful, I felt 'drunk' but with the feeling of a very bad hangover all mixed into one. My walking reflected how I felt too. Luckily my husband took the day off to drive me up as I could not possibly manage the train journey and certainly not on my own. He dropped me at your surgery door and planned to pick me up after my appointment.

You kindly checked and decided on a certain appliance which you adjusted appropriately and fitted in my mouth. This immediately and miraculously started improving my condition.

After leaving your surgery I found myself walking for the five to ten minutes to the car on my own. This I would not have been able to do previously. I felt steady on my feet instead of staggering. My husband was shocked when he saw me walking on my own up to the car. I got into the car and we began our journey home. I felt a little nauseous at first but nowhere near as bad as when I arrived at your surgery. My neck felt less stiff and was easier to move. The pains I described earlier started to disappear.

After about an hour into our journey, I realised I was sitting with both feet on the floor. I cannot normally sit anywhere without crossing my legs. I did not feel nauseous and my headache had gone. As I looked out of the car everything seemed clearer and less blurred. When we arrived at home I did feel tired but that is normal after a long journey. I was very nervous about going to bed and laying down. When I slowly lowered myself into bed the room initially swayed briefly after which I managed to sleep very deeply having been so tired from the previous 10 days of hell. I even turned over and there was NO spinning. I woke up this morning with NO headache or any nausea.

I have a small area on my neck that is a little uncomfortable but I am feeling so much better. Thank you so much for your ingenuity! I look forward to seeing you on Saturday for the review appointment.

Best wishes
Mrs. WT

The New York Times reported that at least 17 children have been paralyzed from polio in war-torn Syria. The United Nations’ World Health Organization (WHO) admits that the outbreak was caused by the vaccine! They claim that the vaccine mutated in the waste of the inoculated children and mutated into a stronger strain of the virus and can spread from contaminated water and sewage. A spokesman said there was an urgent need to vaccinate more than 400,000 children under the age of 5 in the area to stop further infection.

What a murderous scam being perpetrated on the innocent children of Syria by these ruthless villains.
This news you will not read in our corrupt and complicit media.

Earlier India reported 47,500 paralysis cases after polio vaccine

Bill Gates’ has heavily invested funding into eradicating polio in India via a polio vaccine. His vaccines were given to Indian children with deadly consequences.

Please read the full article here:
http://yournewswire.com/bill-gates-polio-vaccine-program-causes-47500-cases of Polio/

Dr Mercola says the following about Bill gates "charitable foundations":
Recently I wrote that philanthropist Bill Gates was leading the pack as one of the most destructive "do-gooders" on the planet and that his views on addressing poverty and disease in poor countries were shortsighted and misinformed. Why? Because the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation (B&MGF) is one of the world's foremost promoters of mass-vaccination efforts, which are a major part of the Pharma agenda.

Two of the B&MGF's research heads were hired right out of Pharma — one from GlaxoSmithKline, with whom the B&MGF had a long-standing collaboration, and the other from Novartis.29 In 2002, B&MGF began buying billions in drug stocks and subsequently added huge amounts of Monsanto stock as well. Not surprisingly, the foundation is also a leading international promoter of GMO crops and technology.

"The Bill & Melinda Gates 'Foundation' is essentially a huge tax-avoidance scheme for enormously-wealthy capitalists who have made billions from exploiting the world’s people," writes Ruben Rosenberg Colorni. "The foundation invests, tax-free, money from Gates and the 'donations' from others, in the very companies in which Gates owns millions in stocks, thus guaranteeing returns through both sales as well as intellectual-property rights."

In a 2011 Forbes interview, Bill Gates admitted the new profitability of vaccines. "Ten or 15 years ago, nobody in the drug business would have held up vaccines as profit centres," he said, conceding that "vaccines are so tough, particularly because of liability issues." But now, "people are making money in the vaccine business," he noted. His statements characterize the Ghost in the Machine well."

HPV vaccine 'a second thalidomide scandal'

The HPV vaccine to prevent cervical cancer is unproven and could be the next thalidomide scandal, claim the producers of a new documentary that premieres on YouTube today (September 11).

Philippine president vows to get to the bottom of dengue vaccine 'health scam'

"The Department of Health in the Philippines (DOH) halted on Friday the use of a dengue vaccine made by Sanofi after the company said its use must be strictly limited due to evidence it can worsen the disease in people who have not previously been exposed to the infection.

More than 730,000 children, ages 9 and up, received one dose of the Dengvaxia vaccine last year in the Philippines. The immunization program is in line with the recommendation of the World Health Organization for mass vaccination.

Amongst those not previously infected by the virus, more cases of the severe disease could occur in the long term following vaccination upon a subsequent dengue infection, Sanofi said."

And wait for it - SANOFI CLAIMS "A new analysis from six years of clinical data showed that Dengvaxia vaccine provides persistent protective benefit against dengue fever in those who had a prior infection."

Comment: When one gets infected with a virus the body normally gets immunity from a further attack. Sanofi claims that it's vaccination provides the "persistent protective benefit". Scandalous behaviour as usual.

I hope Duterte deals with them appropriately and makes them pay for it.

The vaccine was also introduced in Pakistan and Mexico.

Dr Mercola writes:

"Is Bill Gates History's Deadliest Do-Gooder?"

He goes on to say:
" Vaccines are Big Pharma's new profit centre, which has caused an onslaught of manipulative, dishonest “research”

The Two Scientists Who Failed With Agent Orange Now Hold Top Positions Governing Vaccine Safety

Why Are the Same People Who Failed at Science on Agent Orange in Charge of Vaccine Safety and Developmental Disorders at the CDC?
Independent studies on Agent Orange by Zumwalt concluded:

“It can, in my judgment, be concluded, with a very high degree of confidence, that it is at least as likely as not that the following are caused in humans by exposure to TCDD: non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, chloracne and other skin disorders, lip cancer, bone cancer, soft tissue sarcoma, birth defects, skin cancer, lung cancer, porphyria cutanea tarda and other liver disorders, Hodgkin’s disease, hematopoietic diseases, multiple myeloma, neurological defects and auto-immune diseases and disorders.

In addition, I am most comfortable in concluding that it is at least as likely as not that liver cancer, nasal/pharyngeal/esophageal cancers, leukemia, malignant melanoma, kidney cancer, testicular cancer, pancreatic cancer, stomach cancer, prostate cancer, colon cancer, brain cancer, psychosocial effects, and gastrointestinal disease are service– connected..”

President Clinton called Admiral Zumwalt “the conscience of the US Navy”. In fact, Zumwalt’s report is used by veterans seeking compensation. Zumwalt’s son was exposed to Agent Orange and died of lymphoma in 1988."

"Vaccines can cause autism in some people, and, from the looks of things, in many people, and you know it. You failed to adjust the schedule, or offer meaningful public health advice in terms of vaccine safety. Your deeds are having profound effects on society, which are difficult to grasp:

Half of the children have a mental illness in the US.
Teachers cannot teach children due to behavioural anomalies.
Violence in schools is causing special education teachers to quit in schools across the country.
Property taxes are going up as special education costs skyrocket.
Calm rooms are being built in schools, and wobble chairs to allow fidgeting.
Rates of schizophrenia are increasing among 20– 30-year-olds.
High levels of amyloid are found in the brains of kids with severe autism.
High levels of aluminium are found in people with autism.
Artificial immunization programs are failing as parents abandon them due to the first-hand experience with neurological and immunological adverse events.
Exemptions to vaccine mandates are increasingly under fire."

Naylor report: A blueprint to 'sell off the NHS'; An asset stripper charter.
Dr Kailash Chand, the former deputy chair of the British Medical Association, branded the Naylor Report "an outline to sell off the NHS."
He added: "Hospitals, clinics and other NHS property are squarely in the sights of the purchasers.
"Theresa May has given us a huge clue as to how her government would finance ‘improvements’ to NHS services, and they’re absolutely scandalous.”

The NHS is on a one-way road to privatisation says an article in the Guardian newspaper:
The NHS has been legally abolished. Perhaps most controversial is the opening up of NHS contracts to unlimited privatisation. Last year alone, out of £9.63bn worth of NHS deals signed, £3.54bn (nearly 40% of them) went to private firms. Private providers are cherry-picking lucrative services to boost their profits leaving the NHS with less money to provide comprehensive care. This neatly ties in with the next aspect of the legislation.

A series of 1980s thinktank papers (one of which was authored by Conservative MPs Oliver Letwin and John Redwood) provided the blueprint for key policies.

Back in 2005, Jeremy Hunt co-authored a book Direct Democracy calling for the NHS to be dismantled. It included the line: “Our ambition should be to break down the barriers between private and public provision, in effect denationalising the provision of health care in Britain”
.......http://www.independent.co.uk/voices/how-the-nhs-is-being-dismantled-in-10-easy-steps-10474075.html

Both Labour and Conservative "revolving door" ministers have conspired to hand over the NHS to US private companies. The USA has the most scandalous system of health care with costs of hundreds of times of any other country. It regularly bankrupts families by the hundreds on a daily basis.

It operates with patients paying for coverage on a monthly fee basis which can be anything over $600.00 per month. The less one pays the less one is covered. Some policies with very high monthly premiums have an upper limit of out of pocket expenses of some $5,000.

The patient usually has to pay the first 20% of the cost of any procedure. The price of medicines and hospital care are vastly inflated. e.g. If one has a heart attack and needs heart surgery they can be billed $500,000. The patient will have to contribute 20% of this cost which amounts to $100,000.

The actual cost to the hospital of such surgery is probably only $10,000. The insurance company which often owns the hospital ends up making another $90,000 from the patient! The monthly fee the patient has paid is pure profit and none of it ever needs to be spent.

Unfortunately for the patients, they often lose their house to pay the contribution usually at a late stage in their lives when they have no way of either recovering from this financial scam or their healthfully. It would not be unusual to find them on the street having been stripped of all their assets.

Get a heart attack and lose your house is where recent crooked and corrupt ministers including prime ministers have us headed.

When voting, the voters must vet each person standing for election and chase out any with past or present affiliations with corporations on the prowl to destroy the NHS and other corrupt practices.

In an article on beta-blockers Dr Mercola says:
"European doctors may have caused as many as 800,000 deaths in five years by following a guideline to use beta-blockers in non-cardiac surgery patients—a guideline based largely on discredited science. Ironically, the discredited researcher, who was fired for scientific misconduct in 2011, was also the chairman of the committee that drafted the European treatment guideline."

The above quote was from a 2014 article. However, the use of beta-blockers has risen exponentially, and the figures quoted above are probably a gross underestimate of the deaths caused by beta blockers. They are now routinely used for surgical and non-surgical heart cases. They are also extensively used to "control" high blood pressure and other conditions and "diseases" such as migraines, anxiety and Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).

Calling a condition a "disease" gives clinicians a free hand to prescribe some of these very dangerous concoctions. When patients are brainwashed into believing they have a "disease" they become more vulnerable and less likely to challenge a doctor's advice.

Migraine headaches occur due to physical asymmetries and cannot be classed as a disease, and yet patients are often prescribed a beta-blocker.

Anxiety is often caused by a patients inability to breathe deeply due to a TMJ dysfunction which does not require a beta-blocker.

There is no limit to the off-label use of these scam drugs. Scotland's Daily Record newspaper reports:
"Schoolgirl's death linked to stress pills as she becomes second teen to die after taking mental health drug.
Campaigners and politicians have called for action over prescriptions for 'beta blockers' after schoolgirl Lucy Curran's death was linked to the anti-anxiety drug. She is the second teenager in as many years to have died from taking the drug."

Furthermore, The same newspaper reports:
"Controversial stress pills [beta-blockers] linked to teen deaths freely available in vast quantities online
Two Scots schoolgirls who took beta-blocker Propranolol have died and our investigation shows how it can be easily bought from unregulated websites."

Shockingly, they even have the gall to start calling the beta-blocker a "stress pill" and "the anti-anxiety drug"!

Please also note the other deception in the treatment of anxiety. This involves the use of very deceptive anti-depressants.

A blocked artery in the heart is a physical obstruction. Apart from measures to avoid a stent placed in a coronary artery from getting obstructed by the use of a well-established blood thinner it does not always require the patient to take anywhere from 3 to 5 different additional dangerous drugs. In fact, it is not uncommon to see patients walking out of cardiology departments with a sackful of medications. One patient I know personally, had been prescribed all the blood thinners also. These were Aspirin, Clopidogrel, Rivaroxaban, and Warfarin - all to be taken concomitantly following the placement of six stents in her coronary arteries! This is absolutely shocking. I wonder what the evil scheme of the clinician prescribing these drugs was!

The excessive use of drugs by cardiologists is mind-boggling and often perhaps criminal. What worries me is that when a patient returns with symptoms such as a fast heart rate the beta-blocker, often prescribed following a "golden rule" by the medical council, is never blamed. Instead, further drugs are commonly prescribed to supposedly lower the fast heart rate!

It does not even occur to the cardiologist, by design, ignorance, incompetence, stupidity or plain idiocy, that the "golden rule" beta-blocker already being taken by the patient may be or is ACTUALLY at the 'heart' of the 'racing heart problem'. To the best of my knowledge, they have absolutely zilch idea about the true cause of the patients' tachycardia. Numerous blood tests, ECG's, scans, radiographs, echo-cardiograms invariably show no cause and the patient is fobbed off with the advice that he or she may have to raise the dosage of the beta-blocker if the 'racing heart phenomenon' occurs again!

The patient invariably does not live to tell the tale!

Patients are also additionally prescribed other drugs such as:

• Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors;
• Angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARBs);
• Calcium channel blockers;
• Renin inhibitors.

Quite amazingly these drugs often cause further serious unpredictable complications causing further spikes in heart rate, blood pressure and atrial fibrillation. Repeated episodes often result in clot formation, strokes and a serious possibility of sudden death. The patient MOSTLY does not live to tell a tale and hence the suspected gross underestimate of fatalities. The prescribing cardiologist, shockingly, gets away scot-free!

Furthermore, such deaths are never attributed to the use of the drug but to heart failure or pulmonary embolism. I have brought this to the attention of many cardiologists in 4 different countries that beta-blockers cause the deaths of perhaps a million or more people each year. The universal parroted answer has been: "But they also save many more millions"! It is like saying to the Iraqis that we will save 37 million of you but it may involve the death of a million of your country folk! There can be absolutely no justification for this mayhem in any population. Local health authorities are under an obligation to investigate these practices and take remedial action. Getting together a group of cardiologists to look into this problem is heresy because of their involvement in the prescribing practices. It needs an audit of all deaths and their correlation with the prescribed heart or blood pressure drugs.

All autopsies must include the name of the drug the patient was taking at the time of death - not just "heart failure", "pulmonary embolism" or "coronary thrombosis".

Many patients suffering from "Myalgic Encephalomyelitis" (ME), "Chronic Fatigue Syndrome" (CFS) or "Fibromyalgia" also suffer from a very fast heart rate on standing up. This condition is called 'Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome' (POTS). Please note the word "syndrome" which essentially means that the clinician has no idea what is causing it. He however readily and 'expertly' often prescribes a beta-blocker.

It is amazing that almost every hospital has an ME/CFS/POTS/FM/MS expert - a consultant or a neurologist, in concocted and fabricated conditions about which he knows little. He also has no chance of resolving or curing even a fraction of any one of the 40 or so symptoms that these patients often suffer from.

The "specialist" is, however, busy putting patients through numerous expensive futile investigations. After repeatedly, failing to find the actual cause of hundreds of such patients illness, he "expertly" often prescribes beta-blockers and other dangerous and astonishingly expensive and utterly useless pills.

The victims have to contend with the extraordinarily terrible adverse effect ramifications of these extraneous medications. The deterioration of their health continues unabated into the abyss.


I have attended to many such patients with the disease labels listed earlier. They have all turned out to be serious cases of Temporo-Mandibular Joint Dysfunction (TMJD). These patients have, however, been hijacked into illnesses which are nonexistent and hence been denied timely correct interventions. Clinicians fail at every attempt with multiple medications, and yet they cannot admit failure and continue to make the NHS and social services bankrupt and the patients destitute. Some retribution is overdue.

The wholesale hijacking of TMJD patients into ME, CFS, FM, MS and many other syndromes and mental conditions is merciless and astonishing!

Other than beta-blockers, Amitriptyline, Gabapentin and Morphine are the usual prescription fashion drugs of choice for such patients, but one patient that I have come across has 'graduated' to having been additionally prescribed:

Oxycodone, Morphine, Buscopan, Chlorpheniramine, Paracetamol, Ranitidine, Omeprazole, Lorazepam, Cyclizine, Tramadol, Ondansetron, Fragmin and Se, Fe, Mg, K. - all being taken concomitantly. She is bed bound, in extreme pain requiring 24-hour care and is costing the NHS hospital upwards of half a million pounds annually. She is under six such consultants in four different hospitals. Many of these drugs have synergistic effects multiplying her symptoms and causing new symptoms. The doctors, instead of withdrawing any medication, prescribe further drugs to overcome the newer symptoms. No wonder the NHS is going bust and the patients chronically sick.

A posting on a forum I came across showing the dastardly cardiac care of a patient taking seven different drugs:
"The cocktail of drugs prescribed for me were Nicorandil - relieves chest pain opening the arteries, also reduces blood pressure. Ramipril - lowers blood pressure, Isosorbide mononitrate - a form of GTN - opens arteries and lowers blood pressure, Bisoprolol [β-blockers], Sotalol [β-blockers]and Dronedarone - all designed to slow the heart rate and blood pressure, there was also another heart med. I can't remember that acted the same way.
After three days on these meds, I went to use the bathroom, on the way back I felt very dizzy and sick and almost passed out next to my bed.
The cardiac nurse just came on duty, took my OBS and I had a BP of 65/45 and a Heart Rate of 22bpm...............I almost died" [but was rescued by a quick-thinking doctor].

This is what we call medical terrorism. Its activities far exceed any other form of terrorism by a factor of many thousands.

We have proven time and again that ME/CFS is caused by Cranio-dental and skeletal asymmetries in almost every single case seen in our office where I have seen more than a hundred cases. Please read many Google reviews from patients who have recovered with our treatment.

POTS probably stems from the fact that these patients cannot breathe adequately, their oxygen tension is already low, and on standing up, it gets worse. The heart responds by increasing the frequency of its beat. POTS goes away a year or so into treatment without the use of any beta-blocker poison.

To best illustrate the calamitous workings of Cardiology I have gathered together some conversations with cardiologists. Some have been contributed by patients who were the victims of beta-blocker use:

This first conversation is with a cardiologist in St. Petersburg, Florida.

It is alarming to note that one can have a normal heart rate of say 64 beats a minute. If one is then prescribed a beta-blocker and one inadvertently misses a dose, the heart rate can shoot up to more than a 150 beats a minute and even go into fibrillation. Somehow the heart loses its ability to maintain the original 64 beats a minute status. The patient thus becomes dependent on the beta-blocker and its dire consequence of regular hospitalisations due to the complications it causes.

I refuse to accept that thousands of cardiologists are not aware of this phenomenon. It sounds as if, by design, the patients are hooked onto the beta-blocker to generate business, just like an illegal drug pedlar getting clients hooked on drugs. What perpetuates this iniquity? I think I have the answers so please read on.

Joseph Stalin purportedly said that "A single death is a tragedy; a million deaths are just a statistic. A million deaths from beta-blocker use probably occur in the world on an annual basis. Such statistics, such terrorism, indeed does not feature in our collaborative news media. They are very enthusiastic about printing supporting articles such as this one headed:

"Blood pressure drugs 'should be given to everyone over 55 to reduce heart attacks and strokes'

The study says:
"Professor Malcolm Law's research found the medication cut the risk of heart attacks and strokes regardless of a person's blood pressure.
Drugs such as beta blockers and ACE inhibitors reduce the chance of heart attacks by around a quarter and stroke by around a third, the British Medical Journal reports. [I am stunned!]

The finding, based on almost 150 studies into the drugs, will renew debate over the value of the polypill - a single pill containing blood pressure medication, aspirin, and a cholesterol-lowering statin."
Please read more: http://www.dailymail.co.uk/health/article-1184544/Blood-pressure

I shall be interested to know who funded this study and all the other quoted studies and how these studies managed to ignore the 200,000+ annual deaths from beta-blocker use in Europe each year.

It is unimaginable how many people will be sucked into this calamitous poly-pharmacy by such an article in a national newspaper. It will probably skyrocket deaths - not save lives.

Furthermore, according to the latest development reported by the "Independent Institute" in an article headed "New Blood-Pressure Guidelines Raise Concerns about Interest-Group Lobbying" reports:

"On November 13, 2017, millions of more Americans had high blood pressure for the first time.

That day the American College of Cardiology (ACC), working with the American Heart Association (AHA), released new guidelines regarding what constitutes high blood pressure. Since 2003, a reading below 140/90 was considered normal. Now, any blood pressure over 120/90 is considered hypertension."

This means an estimated 30 million more Americans, or in other words, 50% of the present population and millions more around the world will qualify for the designation of having high blood pressure, in need of these killer blood pressure medications.

A documentary on Russian Television shows the workings of those who pretend to care about your heart but in fact have created a great deal of heart disease under whose auspices the cardiologists work.


In a similar way these headlines were in the British national newspaper The daily Express:

"‘Phenomenal’ new treatment could help to save thousands at risk of heart disease'
A NEW daily treatment could slash the risk of heart disease patients dying from fatal attacks."

The drug they are talking about is the blood thinner Rivaroxaban. This drug is already responsible for the death of thousands of patients in the USA! Billions of dollars of lawsuits have been filed. A patient on any one of this family of drugs who begins haemorrhaging from a gastric ulcer or after a minor injury can easily bleed to death in a matter of hours. Patients with a history of kidney or gastric problems are among those with the greatest risk of dying on these anticoagulants.

It is interesting to note that the cardiologists when prescribing this family of drugs obtain a signature from the patient that they have been warned about the dangers of taking these drugs. This has never been done before with any other type of blood thinner.


To illustrate the point about beta-blockers and the ablation procedure, I have a patient who is back in the hospital after his internally implanted defibrillator (ICD) shocked him again, for the umpteenth time, to stop his latest episode of a racing heart which had developed into atrial fibrillation. He had just come out of the hospital two days earlier after his ICD had shocked him twice the previous week.

He has been put through the rigmarole of taking all the routine blood tests, ECG's, ultrasounds, echocardiography, and chest x-rays, interrogations of his ICD repeatedly but they have not found the cause of the fibrillation. The beta-blocker - Bisoprolol, has never been suspected and consequently, he has not been taken off it. He was discharged again from the hospital with no alteration of his drug regimen.

He has had two ablation procedures which are supposed to prevent the heart from fibrillating. When the first procedure was undertaken, he had been promised that "within a few weeks of the ablation procedure he will be off most of his medication" - including the beta-blocker.

Well, they did not take him off the beta-blocker following the ablation procedure. The ICD continued to give his heart an electrical shock regularly to stop the recurrent atrial fibrillations. He was repeatedly hospitalised. All the usual tests were undertaken each time which were normal. In the USA such hospitalisations can set a patient back some $15,000 for just one night's stay in the hospital. He was kept in hospital in the UK for many days at a time. Just try and imagine the cost to the NHS when this drama is played out thousands of times around the country on a daily basis. These scam treatments are what has made the NHS a bottomless pit.

He was hospitalised again with his ICD continuing to fire. He was then told that he needs a newer more specific beta blocker. He was taken off Bisoperol and prescribed Nebivolol - a "newer" beta-blocker they said. His symptoms worsened considerably, and he was then informed that Nebivolol is not working for him and he needs a third ablation and then they "will be able to take him off most of his drugs"! After a day or so they changed their mind about carrying out the third ablation and put him back on the usual poison - Bisoprolol.

Nebivolol is primarily indicated for high blood pressure control. It is claimed that it is cardioselective as opposed to other beta-blockers which are not. Numerous claims of Nebivolol superiority are made in the literature, but at doses above 10 mg, nebivolol loses its cardioselectivity and blocks both β1 and β2 receptors. (While the recommended starting dose of nebivolol is 5 mg, a dose of 2.5 mg caused this patient serious problems. Sufficient control of blood pressure may require doses up to 40 mg). So it is a pretty useless and dangerous addition considering the adverse reactions. A dose of 2.5 mg causes serious problems. I reckon a dose of 40 mg to "control blood pressure" would be rapidly fatal - and the prescriber evades punishment as usual!

The FDA also issued a warning letter to the makers of Nebivolol about advertising claims. In late August 2008, the FDA issued a warning letter to Forest Laboratories citing exaggerated and misleading claims in their launch journal ad, in particular over claims of superiority and novelty of action.

Treating the heart rate to control blood pressure is the height of absurdity

I speculate, that he high blood pressure causes the oxygen saturation in the blood to drop which in turn causes the correct response from the heart which increases the heart rate. Damping this response instead of purely controlling the blood pressure and oxygen saturation is simply wrong. The medical profession needs to be seriously challenged on this issue. The current treatment protocols generate a great deal of business and as such perhaps are allowed to continue and are probably perpetuated by the medical governing bodies.



These are actual records of a patient. Please note that the patients' blood pressure suddenly jumped from 155/93 to 189/112 within 7 minutes of recording. The patient reports that he felt a sudden surge during this period. The HR has however only marginally risen. During this hypertensive crisis, the BP rose from 155/93 to 214/124, i.e. a rise of 59/31 points over 2 hours and 17 minutes. The HR had risen by only 19 points from 55 bpm to 77 bpm and is in no way indicative of palpitations or tachycardia. It does not appear to be a contributory factor in the rising blood pressure. THE BLOOD PRESSURE RISES FIRST. THE HEART DOES NOT CAUSE THE RAISED BLOOD PRESSURE

The medical profession admits that they do not know the cause of high blood pressure. From my observations, the blood pressure appears to act quite independent of the heart rate. I suspect that it probably causes a slight fall in the ability of the lungs to concentrate the oxygen causing the oxygen saturation to fall. The heart responds correctly by increasing the heart rate.

If however, the patients BP is not treated for a prolonged period after the onset of a crisis the heart does get sensitised and may become tachycardic and may even go into fibrillation. Unfortunately, most patients present with palpitations, tachycardia or atrial fibrillation long after the onset of the BP symptoms. The cardiologists assume that the high heart rate is causing the rise in blood pressure and start treating the heart to suppress it with unpredictable drugs like beta blockers and a host of other drugs. This leads to repeated hospital visits and often dire outcomes for the patient.

In conclusion and in my opinion, the treatment should address the high blood pressure. Measures should be in place to actively restore the oxygen concentration in the blood - not an outright assault on the heart with useless poisonous drugs which grossly interfere with the natural homeostasis of the body.

This patient was also a lifelong smoker and had episodes of chronic lung infection and pneumonia. Any lung disease is a contraindication for beta-blocker use because of their inherent ability to cause bronchospasm reducing the oxygen saturation in the blood which is the actual trigger of a racing heart rate. Such matters are of little concern to his carers.

Getting shocked by an internally implanted defibrillator is a terrifying ordeal. This mercenary cardiology enterprise is not only causing harm, unparalleled suffering and death but also bankrupting the NHS in this country. This, I am sorry to say, is a common theme in countless departments in the hospital services as demonstrated in numerous articles on this website.


Not having the implanted defibrillating device, in the presence of the unpredictable beta-blocker, would mean instant death for many patients through either bradycardia when the heart rate falls well below what is required to sustain life OR increase unpredictably, to cause atrial fibrillations, blood clot formation, pulmonary embolism, stroke and death. This means that anyone prescribed these potions should also have an implanted defibrillator to protect them from complications and an untimely death. If they cannot be fitted with such a device, they should not be prescribed these drugs!

Ironically, coming off the beta-blocker is what stops the fibrillation - not the procedure!
I wonder what would be the outcome of an investigation into all heart ablation procedures and their correlation to beta-blocker use.

The highly influential academic cardiologist Sanjay Kaul said he wouldn’t be surprised if AF ablation turned out to be no better than a sham procedure. He is not likely to say that it IS a sham procedure as it could lead to serious litigation against thousands of his colleagues.

Medscape in an article on ablation titled "Could Ablation for AF Be an Elaborate Placebo?" goes on to say:
"Not only are the results of surgery poor, but the procedure is big—ablation lesions in the left atrium, often millimetres away from the oesophagus or phrenic nerve, general anaesthesia, transseptal puncture, multiple vascular entries, and hours of bed rest put patients at significant risk. Creating a scar to treat a disease, that is often caused by a scar hardly seems elegant."

Patients are offered ablation procedures and routinely promised that they would be able to come off their beta-blockers. Patients are prescribed beta blockers even when their blood pressure is slightly above normal. They soon start developing tachycardia and atrial fibrillation which fails to heal unless the patient is taken off the drug, but they are instead offered a sham procedure at considerable expense, taken off the drug and success claimed - what a scam!

It appears that if there were no beta blockers, there would be no jobs for the cardiologists. When cuts are made in hospital services cardiology should be the first in the queue! It may save billions of pounds, save patients from unbelievable suffering, save hundreds of lives and save the hospitals from some serious litigation.


I have only spoken about two adverse effects. There are countless other serious adverse effects caused by β-blockers.
These include: nausea, diarrhoea, bronchospasm (is the most serious), dyspnoea, pulmonary edema, cold extremities, exacerbation of Reynaud's syndrome, hip damage, blockage of leg arteries, bradycardia, hypotension, heart failure, heart block, intestinal gangrene, overwhelming fatigue, extreme and debilitating dizziness, alopecia (hair loss), abnormal vision, extreme back pain, extreme itchiness, hallucinations, insomnia, nightmares, sexual dysfunction, impotence, erectile dysfunction and/or alteration of glucose and lipid metabolism, increase in mortality rate if given to diabetics - and many more.

The heart surgeon/cardiologist controversy

Heart surgeons and Interventional cardiologists (who specialise in placing stents) do an amazing job in unblocking arteries miraculously saving lives. Death rates from acute coronary artery blockages have been greatly reduced - patients having a heart attack nowadays can expect to survive for many years provided they can get to a proper treatment centre in time.

Based on the patient's demographics, overall health, and surgical results, a surgeon should be able to predict approximate survival rates after surgery or coronary angioplasty. A successful quadruple bypass in a relatively healthy patient can be expected to extend their life by 20 years or more.

I speculated that many such surgeons must often be dismayed to hear when a patient did not live the expected time and died prematurely quite against their expectations. Are the causes of such premature deaths more related to surgical misadventure or cardiological polypharmacy, I wondered!

I heard of this dismay expressed by cardiac surgeons from several cardiac nurses who operate with them. These nurses, who are perhaps unencumbered by both loyalty to and reliance upon their referral sources, seemed to be more forthcoming than doctors might be on such controversial or unpopular sentiments on this subject.

They confirmed my suspicions, telling me that very often the surgeons are aghast that sometimes their patient was dead in a month or two. There is considerable acrimony between cardiologists and heart surgeons over patient medications. They often do not see eye to eye - the surgeons felt that the usefulness of medications was overrated, while side effects and mortality/morbidity was under-reported.

The reason behind this is that the system is rigged against the patient. Patients who have any heart problem or high blood pressure are recruited into medication by their GP. As per what I have previously expressed in this article, soon the patient starts developing further peaks in their BP and atrial fibrillations which warrants a referral to a cardiologist who prescribes additional medications.

The heart surgeons only carry out the physical procedure and hand the patient back to the cardiologist. They have little say in the medications prescribed to the peril of the patient and the dismay of the heart surgeon.

A word of caution:

Please do not come off your beta-blocker without the proper supervision of an honest medical doctor and without getting complete control of your high blood pressure. This means radically improving your diet, putting into effect a regular exercise regime and using other means of lowering your blood pressure. High blood pressure control DOES NOT NEED a beta-blocker but substantial lifestyle changes. Using beta-blockers to control the heart rate to affect blood pressure control is plain idiotic. Suddenly coming off the beta-blocker can cause life-threatening and unpredictable complications. Also keep these drugs well away from any other person. Just a quarter of a 2.5 mg tablet can dangerously lower or increase the heart rate to bring about a life-threatening arrhythmia and may prove fatal in a young child.

In a further development Dr Mercola writes:
"American Heart Association President Suffers Heart Attack at 52"

"Many AHA Recommendations Worsen Heart Health

In all likelihood, Warner followed AHA recommendations, many of which are actually recipes for heart disease disaster. Of the foods scientifically proven to cause heart disease and clogged arteries, excess sugar and industrially processed omega-6 vegetable oils, found in nearly all processed foods, compete for space at the top the list. And what kinds of foods does the AHA recommend to protect your heart?

Not only does it support ample grain consumption, but it also recommends eating harmful fats such as canola, corn, soybean and sunflower oil. “Blends or combinations of these oils, often sold under the name ‘vegetable oil,’ and cooking sprays made from these oils are also good choices,” the AHA says. Meanwhile, the association still insists saturated fats are to be avoided.

Just this past summer the AHA shocked health experts around the world by sending out a worldwide advisory saying saturated fats such as butter and coconut oil should be avoided to cut your risk of heart disease, and that replacing these fats with margarine and vegetable oil might cut your heart disease risk by as much as 30 percent. Overall, the AHA recommends limiting your daily saturated fat intake to 6 percent of daily calories or less.

This is as backward as it gets, and if Warner was following this long-outdated advice, its no wonder he suffered a heart attack. In fact, it is to be expected. As noted by American science writer Gary Taubes in his extensive rebuttal to the AHA’s advisory, with this document, the AHA reveals its longstanding prejudice — and the method by which it reaches its flawed conclusions.

In short, the AHA simply excluded any and all contrary evidence. After this methodical cherry-picking, they were left with just four clinical trials published in the 1960s and early ‘70s — the eras when the low-fat myth was born and grew to take hold. The problem is nutritional science has made significant strides since then, and some substantial studies have firmly disproven the hypothesis that saturated fat causes heart disease, finding no association whatsoever."

The misinformation continues unabated.

Dr Mercola writes an article headed:
Who's Behind the Claim That Coconut Oil Is Pure Poison? (September 2018):

"A German lecture in which Harvard professor Karen Michels proclaims coconut oil is “pure poison” has been picked up by many English-speaking media outlets.

Michels is a proponent of the American Heart Association’s (AHA) advisory against saturated fats such as coconut oil. She also has professional ties to Harvard professor Frank Sacks, who was the lead author of the AHA’s 2017 advisory on saturated fats.

The AHA’s Presidential Advisory against saturated fats specifically identifies coconut oil as a harmful fat, even though coconut oil was not included in any of the studies AHA used to support its claims.

The low-fat myth was born and grew to take hold in the 1960s and early ‘70s, and it is four studies from these eras that the AHA uses as the justification for their recommendation to avoid saturated fats.

Coconut oil supports thyroid function, normalizes insulin and leptin sensitivity, boosts metabolism and provides excellent and readily available fuel for your body in lieu of carbohydrates "

A new book by Justin Smith "Statin Nation" thoroughly exposes the Statin scam.

A medical doctor after reading this article:
"Sharp but true!"

A very senior hospital nurse writes:
"Really scary. Every time they start my father on these he lasts about three days, and we have to stop them”!!!

A senior figure in the NHS writes:
"Well written piece, and supports what some people think happens in practice. It always amazes me how many patients on multiple medications end up in A&E on numerous occasions in the last few years of life, and it is rare a doctor has the confidence to stop the medications and their known side effects to see if it benefits the patient. Its a shame a research project can't look into this, and we could see the outcome."

A patient writes:
"I read your article on hypertension etc. and was appalled. Coincidentally, I was talking to a chap today, whose 55-year-old father was as fit as a fiddle until he was given steroids for a knee problem. He immediately put on 5 1/2 stone, got diabetes and high blood pressure. The tablets that they gave him for his blood pressure brought it down to 85/35, so he passed out at home and is now in hospital with a collapsed lung! As you can imagine, my friend is furious."

Beta-Blockers May Raise Mortality in People With Diabetes

Hi Dr Amir,
I am beginning to believe you may be on to something!

Please read this article:https://www.medscape.com/viewarticle/894878

"The cardiovascular event rate was significantly higher in patients on β-blockers than in those not on β-blockers.
In patients with coronary heart disease or heart failure, the cumulative event rate for cardiovascular events was also significantly higher in those on β-blockers than in those not on β-blockers.
The incidence of severe hypoglycemia was significantly higher in patients on β-blockers than in those not on β-blockers,"

In further correspondence the cardiologist concurs:
