What happened? Did you drink too much?
Tell me more.
I was given a chemotherapy poison called "Bleomycin" that I am allergic to and it almost killed me. Shivering and hot at the same time, breathing but not getting any oxygen, was the worst day of my life. Don't even like to think about it.

Chemo is a very barbaric and cruel "treatment" .
Holy Moly!
I wont argue with you there.
There was a big blue recently about the worthlessness of chemotherapy.
The results from some research by an Australian doctor ( I think his name was Prof Morgan) going through buckets of records showed a minimal benefit attributable to chemo but because of the way the results are presented, it made it look as though they had a 50% success rate.
The argument went something like this.
Those who underwent chemotherapy had a 4.5% recovery rate.
Those who didn't had a 3% recovery rate.
Those pushing the chemo barrow therefore claimed a 50% improvement, (which is technically true ), but the gullible joe bloggs takes this as meaning he has a 50% chance of recovery.
Wrong!
He has a 4.5% chance of recovery, which is only slightly better than the recovery rate if he went home and took an asprin and enjoyed the rest of his life, rather than being slowly poisoned by chemo.
Naturally, his report was not received with great praise from the medical profession in Australia. But oddly enough, he was given quite a good hearing in the USA and I believe they are looking into it further.
There was an interview on Radio National with a representative from the chemo group and he was saying that the test results were misinterpretted and that the success rate for chemo was much better than that.
When asked to put a figure on it he said "Something like 5 percent."
Well, even if that is true, it is still a pitifully poor success rate.
So if ever such an option is presented to me I will be asking what the absolute success rate is, not what some phony 'relative' success rate is.
But getting back to the fluoride, I don't think you will get that effect from a bit of fluoride in the water.
The past 40 years of fluoridation in WA has not presented as a deluge of toxic shock victims.
It has resulted in most people having much better teeth however, even when some kids seem to live on coke, lollies and chips.
