Yes, because first of all we'd seen, we saw the, an article in the paper about and of course the headline is 'New cure for rheumatoid arthritis'. And of course you immediately think 'Oh, wow, a cure'. And then it's only when you read the rest of the article and then go onto the Internet and find all the research that you find it's, it's not a new cure it's, it's, I mean they have done research and they've done trials but trials on a small percentage and it's been successful but you have to remember that it's, it isn't a cure it's just, you know, another way of treating it and it's only when you've sort of downloaded all these pages and pages of information and, and read your way through them that you realise, you know, it's, it's still a small step forward but it's not quite what the headline said in the initial article.
So, but I, you know, I think it's useful because you know, it just gives you another insight into how the disease can be treated and how, how effective some people have found it. I mean, there are people who've, who've managed it using alternative medicines. I mean, I don't, don't think that would be suitable for me but I'm, I'm not saying that it wouldn't work. You know, I just feel more comfortable with being treated the way I am, you know. So I would read it and, and, and listen to other people who say 'But I find it works' but I probably, you know, wouldn't want to, to go that way myself. |
