Litigation in the US
September 22, 2011
Every time we come to elections, you probably notice how attorneys are suddenly being debated. The GOP claims they are the spawn of the Devil. Their sole purpose in life is to put all businesses into an early grave. The theme is simple. Every mistake can be evidence of negligence and, without tort reform, we will all suffer. The Democrats sing the song that attorneys are the only thing standing between consumers and predatory businesses. This highlights two quite separate but important problems. First, we have become a very litigious society. If anything goes wrong and we have the money (or are insured), the first reaction to any loss is to blame others and sue them. Consequently, we have one of the most active court systems in the world. Second, there’s a real shortage of adequate laws to protect consumers. This encourages everyone to sue using the law of tort and there we get into long-running cases where attorneys make a lot of money.
Let’s move over to New Jersey where a case has just finished against Roche for their acne treatment. Three claims were heard together. They alleged the drug had caused serious ulcerative colitis. You probably read about this because several Hollywood celebrities were involved as plaintiff and witnesses. The result was a 2 to 1 win for Roche with two of the claims being dismissed by the jury. In reporting this, we can gloss over the fact there are some three-thousand similar claims outstanding. There’s a bandwagon effect. Once word goes around that there’s one claim, other plaintiffs suddenly appear. No matter what the merits of these claims, there are some instructive lessons from other countries.
In Europe, only a qualified dermatologist can prescribe this drug, and he or she is directly responsible for monitoring the progress of the treatment. Patients are usually required to attend the clinic or hospital once a month for a check-up. This ensures a lower risk the drug will be abused by the patients. There’s evidence US patients want the cure now and not tomorrow, so they decide to increase the dosage or extend the period of treatment. Without proper supervision, the drug can therefore cause more damage. The fact there are warnings in the literature given out with every prescription is not helpful. Few people ever read them from start to finish. In New Zealand, there’s very clear research evidence showing low dosages are safe and effective. Such evidence is unlikely to affect the behavior of our teens who are determined to have perfect skin no matter what the cost.
There are always risks of adverse side effects when people abuse drugs. Accutane is a powerful drug and it can damage your body if you take too high a dose or take the recommended dose for too long. Unfortunately, we blame others when we injure ourselves. The fact Roche gives a warning about intestinal and bowel risks is brushed aside. We should only be limited in our claims if the manufacturer can show we actually knew of the risks. Now you see why the GOP thinks attorneys should be locked away. They confuse a simple truth. Accutane is safe so long as you follow the rules.
In the good old days when men sold their souls to the company store for sixteen tons and even then only got deeper in debt, there was no technology to warn the miners if gas was building up. The first they might know is an explosion bringing down the roof. Being careful men, they experimented with different ways of testing the air for gas and canaries were the most reliable indicator they found. All they had to do was keep the birds in the mine. If they fell off their perches, there was too much gas around and it was time to evacuate. So much for the history lesson.
Every year, modern medicine directs a lot of money into basic research to look for ways of detecting serious health problems in their early stages. Sometimes, technology is the answer. So many women who go for regular mammograms detect breast cancer early and the treatment is more likely to save the breast and guarantee a long life. In other cases, there are early symptoms that may not, at first sight, have any connection to the more serious condition that appears later. In the case of heart disease, there’s now very clear evidence that erectile dysfunction in younger men is a very clear warning of a possible stroke or heart attack within the next five years.
The explanation for this is slightly complicated. Various types of cells line the walls of our blood vessels. The most sensitive of these are called endothelial. For reasons no one can explain, there are more of these cells in the penis than anywhere else in the body so anything that affects them is going to show up in erectile dysfunction. If you eat a diet containing too much fat, there’s likely to be a build up of plaque on the walls of the arteries. This hardens the cells and prevents the arteries from dilating and contracting. Since the formation of an erection depends on dilation, anything preventing it in younger men signals high risk the same problem will spread to other blood vessels in the body.
If you’re under the age of 50 and you experience a consistent pattern of erectile dysfunction, you should ask a doctor for a full cardiology workup. Indeed, the younger you are, the more urgent it is you have the tests done. But if you’re older, there are fewer risks. It’s reasonably safe to buy Viagra online and rely on that to solve the problem. That said, we’re all aware of the so-called epidemic of obesity. That’s too many men carrying too much weight. No matter what your age, you should think about changing your diet. One of the most common causes of a plaque build-up is eating too much carbohydrate in your food. The evidence shows men find erectile dysfunction is less of a problem if they lose weight. This should not be a big deal. It’s just a matter of eating a low-fat diet in smaller portions. If you can add in a little exercise, so much the better. If this is too much of a challenge, there’s always Viagra but, if your weight does continue increasing, it may only be a short-term fix. Losing weight is better.
Can you dig it?
September 21, 2011
According to The Mock Turtles, people dig it when they turn on a light, see how big and strong you’ve grown, and recognize you’ve taken to standing on your own. This is confirmation, as if we needed it, that men who stand out from the crowd are dug (or should that be digged?). We admire the loner, the one who does his own thing not caring whether anyone else is following or not. The only issue is whether you prove to be a force for good or evil. The maverick can have a slightly poor rep in some circles. So, when it comes to fashion, where do you stand on hair (other than in the barber’s shop, of course)? Some men actively embrace it, shaving their heads and standing out proud for all to see. Although they’re all getting a little old now, so there are other explanations for the loss of hair, men like Andre Agassi, Bruce Willis, Samuel Jackson and Homer Simpson have made a feature of their baldness from the early days of their celebrity. They challenged expectations and proved anyone with confidence can remain a celebrity and command respect.
This should be a lesson for us all. No one would criticize Mike Tyson. . . Well, that’s actually a little unfair since he had a habit of using critics as punchbags when he was in the fight game. It’s rather the same for Steve Austin who could knock you stone cold if you even hinted a thought about the lack of hair. For us mere mortals, all we need to be is good at what we do and most people around us will value us and ignore the lack of hair. So wimpy little guys like Michael Stipe are praised just because they can sing in tune, and no one said too many bad things about Demi Moore when she shaved her hair off in G.I Jane, or Natalie Portman who managed to make baldness cool in V for Vendetta. It all just goes to show you can live a successful life without hair on your head.
For those of you less confident about a radical shaving of all remaining hairs and the application of something vaguely perfumed to cut down the glare of reflected light, there’s always working from home. With the arrival of the internet and high-speed download speeds, more people can sell their services from wherever they plug in their PCs. This is not to advise you to become like a hermit. But simply to point out there are new ways to make money with less need for people to meet you face-to-face. It all depends on how comfortable you are in your own skin. If you are finding too many people are making fun of you when the first signs of the characteristic pattern start to show, Propecia is the tried and trusted drug to keep your hair in place. It all depends on you starting early in the cycle of hair loss. Leave it too long and nothing will persuade your hair to grow back. But a final warning. Always get a doctor to confirm you have pattern baldness. Otherwise taking Propecia will be ineffective.
Over the centuries, men have been plagued by the steady drop of their hair. Let’s not make any sexist mistake here. In many ways, men are just as vain as women, particularly when it comes to displaying a full head of hair. Indeed, at various times through the ages, facial hair has been fashionable with sometimes extravagant beards considered a statement of superior strength and abilities. When you put the two together, actually seeing the face behind was a challenge, often making it difficult to get a precise grasp on whether the truth was spoken. Hence the special respect accorded to those with the ability to be barefaced liars. Except all this could be lost if hair was less than forthcoming. So men have experimented with every possible substance, hoping to discover the one magic ingredient that will restore them to their full glory. Sadly, there’s never been any scope for the placebo effect. When it comes to many illnesses of the body, a strong enough belief in the effectiveness of the “cure” will often produce the cure. But hairs are a law unto themselves. If it’s their time to fall, there’s nothing in nature that can do anything about it.
Except the myths have persisted. One of the more extraordinary is the power of the red pepper to kick-start healthy growth. Now let’s be very clear about this. There are some varieties of pepper that burn the skin when you handle them with unprotected hands. Those who work in the restaurant trade have a deep respect for some of these fierce spices, using broad-bladed knives for chopping and scooping up the results. The real danger lies in the seeds, of course. If you want to cook with them and are afraid of the results, the only “safe” course of action is to remove the seeds, wearing gloves of course.
Anyway, the myth says that if you cut open a red pepper and rub it over your scalp, this will encourage the roots of your hair to start growing again. The deranged who suggest this treatment justify this by pointing to the violence of the allergic reaction on the scalp. This is an attack on your body. The autoimmune system is triggered and sends its troops to your scalp to defend the skin. The roots of your hair are just under the surface of the skin and, as the blood supply is improved and healing antibodies are delivered, this can only be good for your hair. Well, medical science as practiced in the ERs can testify this treatment causes great pain, often lasting for days, and has been known to damage the roots of hair. So do not be tempted to try this, whether at home or more likely in the bar where your drunken “friends” are encouraging you to try it.
If you are convinced you have the first signs of male pattern baldness, Propecia is painless. While it’s also true that it only works slowly, taking months before you can expect to see results, you do have the consolation of avoiding the medical expenses likely to come your way should you actually rub really hot peppers on your scalp. So play safe and stick with the medical solution to your problem. Propecia is the best.
What price hair?
August 4, 2011
There are times when life put you to hard choices. Yes, it’s unfair. But no one said life had to be fair. Let’s take the second worst thing that can happen to a man. You start noticing there’s more hair than usual getting caught up in the drain to the shower. You look suspiciously in the mirror. Is that? Could that be? You ask family who never really look at each other unless someone asks. They think you might be starting to lose your hair. You protest you’re only thirty-something. They smile understandingly, laugh until they see your expression, offer fake sympathy and lend you a baseball cap. So you do a little research and discover there are apparently some hair loss drugs that actually work. The FDA has given its approval so that must mean something. It’s strange the best should be a treatment to slow down growths in the prostate but, if it works, who cares. You look vaguely at the piece of paper with the small print that comes with these little tablets. It says this is a safe treatment with little risk.
Several months later, you begin to experience erectile dysfunction. This has never happened before. You wonder whether this could be a side effect of the hair loss drug. Surely this would be mentioned in the small print if it was a problem. Your hair loss seems to have stopped. You’re not sure what to do. Eventually, you ask a doctor. The advice is clear. Stop taking the drug. You are lucky. You asked the question early. Men who keep going with the hair loss drug can find the erectile dysfunction becomes a more permanent problem even when they stop. How do we know this?
In 2006, the Swedish medical regulators began investigating reports of erectile dysfunction. As a result of this initial work, more European countries have been gathering evidence and the manufacturer has been forced to change its labels to include a very clear warning that the erectile dysfunction may continue even though the use of the drug is stopped. This gives all men a better chance of deciding which is more important in their lives. Perhaps it should not surprise us the FDA has not been investigating and the manufacturer has not changed the label in the US. As a result, a number of men have now begun legal action, claiming their lives have been destroyed because their erectile dysfunction has become permanent.
All of which brings us to another myth. There are limits to the power of Cialis and the other erectile dysfunction drugs. They cannot cure all cases of erectile dysfunction. In this case, the damage caused by the hair loss drug is so severe, there’s no help for the men affected. What make this case so hard is the failure of the FDA to follow the lead of the European regulators in forcing a warning on to the label. Perhaps we have become used to the FDA bowing down to Big Pharma and take no notice of yet another instance of people being injured unnecessarily by drugs approved by the FDA. If you have been taking this drug and now have the first signs of erectile dysfunction, stop immediately and start using Cialis. Hopefully, your erections will return.

Kiss, Not only the meeting of two lips
May 28, 2011
The two lovebirds who are happy Prince William and Kate Middleton did the first kiss on the balcony of the Palace Buckhingham after the wedding ceremony at Westminster Abbey. In front of an audience and two billion television viewers, they not only kissed once, but twice.
Kissing is an exciting and intimate feeling. But did you know that kissing is not just a meeting of the lips with lip. Kissing also involves a variety of facial muscles, hormones and other body movements.
Researchers from Lafayette College, Pennsylvania said, kissing will increase certain hormones in the brain. Expenditures hormones is the result of a combination of feelings of love, passion, and feeling relaxed. Holding hands, eye contact and hugging while kissing is also known to reduce levels of stress hormone, cortisol.
The key there is kissing on the lips. But when you do kiss the warm and deep, there are 34 facial muscles involved moving. Meanwhile, a simple kiss that we do only have two facial muscles alone.
Kissing also involve saliva. But according to research found men were more “wet” than women. “There is evidence that in male saliva contains testosterone which will increase the sexual drive. Therefore when kissing, men tend to produce more saliva, one of its functions to transfer testosterone to improve sexual desire of women,” says Helen Fisher, an anthropologist from Rutgers University .
Beyond these scientific matters, a perfect kiss should also have a rhythm, slowly but long, light and soft, then the faster, hot and exciting.
A survey also said 66 percent of women and 59 percent of men say the first kiss will affect the quality of relationship continuity. In other words, the way you kiss could make the sticky with your lover, or otherwise, thrown away.

What’s in a word?
February 16, 2011
The English language is great for those that speak it. Flexible and supposedly easy to learn, it gives everyone multiple choices about the words to choose whenever they open their mouths or put virtual pen to paper. We can pick words that sound nice and pleasant. We can pick words that are likely to shock and offend. It all depends on what we are writing and why we are writing it. As a simple example, some people feel more comfortable with the idea that a loved one is asleep with Jesus. Others simply think them dead. You might not believe really bad things could happen to those finding themselves inside a correctional facility, whereas we all know what happens to pretty boys in prison. You might be puzzled by negative patient outcomes until you realize the local hospital lost yet another patient.
The thing about erectile dysfunction as a medical condition is that it’s perfectly alright to talk about men’s private parts in a medical textbook, but it’s quite another to discuss the issues in public. Just what words would you use on a television show to indicate the nature of the problem or its possible cure? In comedy shows, the answer is to have the man affected so overcome with embarrassment that he keeps hesitating at the key points, leaving it to the adult members of the audience to fill in the gaps. But if you’re in a drama, this is not the solution. There was a good example of this in Grey’s Anatomy when a random man she had bedded suddenly appeared in the Emergency Room complaining that his erection would not subside. Meredith was therefore left with both the medical problem to solve and her friends reactions to manage. The medical drama then gave us a clear factual set of treatments for what is laughingly called priapism – a painful condition that, if untreated, can result in permanent . . .
In years gone by, an ability to produce an erection was considered one of the grab-bag of conditions falling under the heading of impotence. For those of you that like the technical definition, it’s an inability to copulate or being infertile. Marketers decided that “impotence” was one of these no-no words with unfortunate associations with more general weakness. The impotent were powerless and ashamed. If you want to sell a product to a man, you don’t want to suggest he is powerless. You want to define the problem in a neutral way and appeal to the power of his credit card to buy the cure. In this case, the marketers decided we should all call the problem erectile dysfunction which is even better if you shorten it to the initials ED.
So there you have it. Instead of talking about your penis staying too flabby to be able to penetrate your partner until you took Viagra, we can be all nice about it and say ED came to stay for a few days until the little blue pills were delivered in a plain brown wrapper. All us adults know what these code words mean and we can have this conversation without it upsetting or offending the children. Such is the power of the euphemism when it comes to selling cheap Viagra online.
