My two year old had a temp of over 39. Next thing you know, a call centre agent is prescribing Tamiflu telling me in a robotic voice that my child has 'respiratory complications from flu'. They're so eager to push this medicine on us. We were very annoyed and we're not medicating her with it. We think she has a bug but the thing is we won't know because they're too busy trying to 'diagnose' with swine flu.nataliehttp://www.bambinogoodies.co.uknoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5701718131182937479.post-39201188485920516772009-08-01T18:11:54.886+01:002009-08-01T18:11:54.886+01:00I completely agree about the whole Tamiflu thing. ...I completely agree about the whole Tamiflu thing. I'm fascinated by your stats regarding correct diagnosis of flu by doctors - I wonder if this means the numbers of infected people being bandied about may be wildly overestimated, as I suspect most of the diagnoses are based on clinical rather than laboratory evidence. The potential for misdiagnosis and mismanagement is huge and frankly rather terrifying.Hilarynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5701718131182937479.post-1747929351729802082009-08-01T15:07:04.275+01:002009-08-01T15:07:04.275+01:00Since your post last week I've been telling al...Since your post last week I've been telling all my friends that I wouldn't give any of my children tamiflu, I think one may have had Swine flu but who really knows without her being swabbed? <br />I've never been one for giving out painkillers/meds unless really really necessary (it's the evil nurse in me) . It's good to hear another point of view ( by someone that knows)Chic Mamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01803588856685163353noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5701718131182937479.post-76328716184869787342009-08-01T13:00:46.823+01:002009-08-01T13:00:46.823+01:00Good old tamiflu, at least its made Rumsfeld rich;...Good old tamiflu, at least its made Rumsfeld rich; Bushes goverment may have fallen over but his staff found otherways to make a sweet buck :p<br /><br />You are right though, blanket treating people with medicines a risky business, more so without any form of formal diagnosis first. It's like giving rheumatism drugs to everyone who complains of a little wrist pain.Chris Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17674932552135459041noreply@blogger.com
