I must say Mike, I give you a ton of credit for showing your psoriasis boo boos to the internet at large. It takes a lot of guts to do what you did, and I applaud you for it! ❤

About 8 years ago, I walked into a hospital with extreme vomiting for over a month (was scared of costs of treatment. I know I was dumb) found out my gallbladder was full of sludge; had it removed, also have celiacs, AND gastroparesis (stomach muscle stop functioning and stopping anything from digesting).

I was given reglan through an IV. Within 30 minutes I suddenly started having involuntarily arm movements. Told the nurse but they said nothing. 6 hours later I got another dose of IV reglan. 30 minutes later while sitting still in a hospital bed watching TV, out of nowhere it felt like someone took a hot poker out of a fire and placed it on my lower spine. Over the next few hours I lost feeling from my bellybutton down. I couldn’t stand up. I looked up reglan since it was the only new thing that I was taking.

I found out that Reglan is on the FDA blacklist for causing peripheral neuropathy in a percentage of people! When I got to see the doctor again and told him about my new symptoms and what I read about reglan, the doctor told me “well you are being seen for your stomach issues and if you want to talk about your new symptoms you’ll have to go downstairs and try to get readmitted” then he left the room.

I had to learn how to walk again. I still use a walker. I’ve had a spinal cord stimulator implanted, multiple spinal cord injections over the years, still in physical therapy, and have chronic pain. I literally can’t lay flat and sleep in a hospital bed. It sucks

Kudos to Mike for being able to pronounce all those drug names! 🎉

Thalidomide actually was never approved by the FDA, because the employee reviewing the case thought there was not enough evidence of its safety. She saved millions! A few doctors did give thalidomide out in the US during trials. But it was never widely available in the US like it was in other counties

[sherrydesmarais]

I was born in 1959, my mother took Thalidomide. It was prescribed by a British doctor for severe morning sickness. I was very lucky, my mother felt it really wasn’t helping that much and stopped taking it. When I was born in Germany, I was born with my right ear missing and no ear canal. The doctors freaked out (probably because they realized that their German drug had caused the birth defect)! It was rushed through most countries, including the U.S., without proper testing. So many people were born with severe birth defects! I believe it was the worst medication prescribed without proper testing in history (but I could be wrong about that)!

People often ask why I am so cautious about medical treatment. I've had 3 heart attacks so, obviously, I take a few medications. Watching this just confirms my suspicions about the medical "industry".

[TiffanyMWells]

Wearing a Doctor Who t-shirt while giving us our latest dose of List 25 without any bad side effects is a brilliant choice of clothing.

[mesee]

I took Cylert for about a month and it made my brain so loopy that I literally forgot my name one day at work! Thank God I refused to continue taking it, even though the doctor who prescribed it kept telling me that the "loopiness" side effects would pass. I was like, yeah, no! Anything that makes me forget my own name CANNOT be good for me!

[vickiedouglas]

Scary stuff! I could have been one of those death casualties. Years ago I lived in RI and contracted Lyme Disease... I saw no bite just got sick. After six months I had to see an orthopedist and I mentioned I thought I had got arthritis. He sent me to the lab for a blood draw and called me the next day saying get in here you have flaming Lyme Disease. I got the usual month of antibiotic but I never got better. For three years I saw many doctors because of the pain and fatigue. No help. I finally ended up at a rheumatologist and he diagnosed me with Fibromyalgia. He prescribed me Viox. After 2 days I was retaining a lot of fluid with my feet and legs blowing right up. When I called the nurse to report this she just said it's nothing to worry about. She said my body would adjust. Thankfully I did some reading and found out congestive heart failure was a complication. By then I was coughing a little and figured my lungs were starting to fill up. So I stopped on my own and never went back to that office.

[cramit]

Wow damn man! Huge thanks for being someone that admits to having psoriasis. I have minor issues with it but it's still tough. You are my hero right now.

Cylert was the first ADHD med my son son took, back in 1992. It made a huge difference in his ability to function at school, but after a few months, routine bloodwork showed issues with his liver enzymes. He was switched to Ritalin for a few years. It was helpful, but he had a lot of side effects. When he was 10, he started taking the brand new Adderall, which worked much better for him. He's in his late 30s now and still takes it.

[NormaWills]

Thalidomide is being used again for certain cancers including multiple myeloma. However, it isn't used in patients (male or female) who intend to conceive a child within a year of stopping treatment. I have smoldering multiple myeloma and have gone over all the treatment options with my oncologist. I was shocked when he mentioned thalidomide paired with dexamethasone as maintenance.

Things get approved after extensive testing but the rarer issues are statistically unlikely to become apparent until millions of doses have been given.

[princessofbratz]

my friend was given a freshly fda approved drug for panic disorder.
then a majority of their hair fell out. despite being the most orally hygienic person i knew..the medicine gave them non stop cavities and severe rapid tooth decay. had they’d been warned.. and properly treated instead of blamed after the fact i think things would have been different fs.

[smolsand]

When I was in collage many years ago, I had a nutrition professor who used to work for the FDA. He was on the FDA committee that approved aspartame and he said, "It is one of the biggest regrets of my life. If I knew then, what I know now, I would have never approved it." He felt like aspartame was a major reason for chronic migraines, other chronic health conditions, and even cancer.

[Niccole-oqwo]

I was prescribed zofran when I was pregnant. My insurance wouldn't cover it, because it was technically for cancer patients. They wanted me to pay over $2, 000 for a 1 month supply. Needless to say, I never took it while I was pregnant. I couldn't afford it. I'm actually glad my insurance refused to pay for it. The one time a refusal was a good call!!!!

[grimers]

Zofran is still used today. However, our standard dose is 4mg instead 😬

Marcia Angell, former editor of New England journal of medicine wrote a book called The truth about drug companies and how they decieve us.

[SonjaMorrison-ij]

I am so pleased Mike is back hosting this show. ❤🇨🇦

[kellyshomemadekitchen]

Insane and disturbing fact about Thalidomide is that doctors in Brazil are STILL prescribing this horrific medicine to pregnant mothers
