I was trapped in the sick care system as a nurse for way too many years!!! The lightbulb went off in my head years ago and then I was able to get out and work in a more functional way and use my brain and critical thinking!
The sad part is that so many cannot afford to pay for a Dr out of pocket so they get stuck with the sick care Drs. And these sick care Drs and healthcare professionals are not bad people and they do feel they are doing what’s best...but unfortunately they are not getting to the root cause of people’s issues and fixing them...it’s tests and meds. I hope more will change soon!
Having a close and personal experience with dysfunction care thanks to my very elderly parents. It is a spiral - every appointment ends with the suggestion of another appointment with another specialist. And so much medication!
No, we are not longer living in a free country/world. We willingly gave it away for a false sense of safety over a runny nose. Oh, it’s not even dysfunctional anymore, it’s just straight on managed DeathCare.
When I was a child, the doctor made house calls. When my children were young, the doctor was a great resource, I could call him whenever I had questions or concerns. Today, when I call the doctor, I get an automated message asking for my name, rank ,and serial number, then after I am put on hold, the office says the next appointment is in two weeks.
My solution - today - is to stay out of the healthcare system as much as possible. While I have had a few positive experiences, there have been far too many that give me pause to trust they have my best interest at heart. It seems to be more about making money . .at every angle.

I love your idea of "common sense" health. Sadly, for many, common sense is not common.
