My last book is on doctors and their mistakes. I will publish it in my death bed so that I won't leave a doctor to administer a lethal dose of sedatives.
As a True Buddhist I need to die in a "Lucid State" with a proper Gathi Nimitta (which I deserve) and having no control of mine.
Assumption was every illness was related to infection in the pre-antibiotic era.
Viral infection did not excite inflammation to begin with.
Diagnosis pneumococcal bacterial pneumonia needed specific signs without and X-ray.
Viral pneumonia in infants can be missed unless an X-ray is take at the precise time.
28, 32, 40 ratio was unknown.
28% could be diagnosed without ancillary investigations
32% with the help of investigations.
40% missed by even learned professors.
They end up at the pathologist and the pathologist knows he cannot fill up the 40% in all his life. This was told to me my professor to which I am grateful to this day.
That put me off completely.
This is the list I put in my histology class and nobody could define the word definition.
I use tuberculosis as a model disease which only 5% show symptoms. In 95% the patients it heals by itself leaving a site of calcification which vary from where the bacteria enters the body.
1. Definition,
2. Incidence,
3. Etiology,
4. Bacteriology, (applies this only to bacterial infections)
5. Morbid anatomy,
6. Symptoms,
7. Diagnosis,
8. Complications,
9. Prognosis,
10. Treatment and
11. Prophylaxis.
