5. Integrated Medicine, The Easy Way To Save Lives
Dear Readers
I have suffered for many years with gynaecological issues, doctors had told me to go on the contraceptive pill so after a few years I developed erosion of the cervixs than endometriosis.
In the last seven years I have have had a number of operations and have opted out of the pharmaceutical industry. Medications do not heal the body but destroy it.
I wrote this because I found there is a greater way to healing through Integrated medicine, space science and diet. My own chronic health issues have lead me to a healing that is not know to the world.

Trovafloxacin (sold as Trovan by Pfizer and Turvel by Laboratorios Almirall) is a broad spectrum antibiotic that inhibits the uncoiling of supercoiled DNA in various bacteria by blocking the activity of DNA gyrase and topoisomerase IV.[1] It was withdrawn from the market due to the risk of hepatotoxicity. It had better gram-positive bacterial coverage and less gram-negative coverage than the previous fluoroquinolones.
How many people had to die in a poor nation before it got to to the western world? Is this not expolitation?
The question is why are international patents given out from WIPO The World Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) (in French: Organisation mondiale de la propriété intellectuelle or OMPI) is one of the specialized agencies of the United Nations.
This is is a violation of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights created in 1948.
6. IVF Medication on the PBS Scheme
We the undersigned are requesting the Government to place IVF Medication on to the PBS Scheme.
7. Educate Before You Medicate
Many doctors are prescribing medications to patients without fully understanding the side effects, interactions with other medications, and fail to provide adequate information to their patients. The elderly are especially vulnerable. They feel pressured with the doctors "time limit" and end up leaving the office with multiple prescriptions they do not understand. Pharmaceutical company representatives have elite status and access when visiting a doctor.
Several of these companies hand out excessive amounts of "free samples" to doctors (and junkets) in order to persuade them to prescribe their medications. Many doctors do not take the time to research these medications or the serious side effects they may have.
The elderly are more likely to have negative side effects,reactions, and are not fully informed about these medications.
Having been diagnosed with lung cancer, told he needs to have one lung completely removed, and prescribed medication which, amongst other things, cause the side-effects of 'rage and anger', Dave Carroll was arrested for threats to kill (read the full story http://www.facebook.com/home.php#!/group.php?v=info&gid=109295249095528 ).
Dave is now being held on remand at HMP Nottingham. His cancer treatment has been delayed by over two weeks to date as the prison service saw fit to re-arrange all of his hospital appointments, on the grounds that he (and his one functioning lung) is a flight risk. He was also denied a ventolin inhaler for several days, when the prison service failed to pass on his medical records when he was transferred between prisons.
This petition is to demand that Dave Carroll be released from jail on health grounds so that he can take charge of his own treatment. His health is deteriorating rapidly as he literally rots in prison.
9. Stop Medication Errors Induced by Medicine Packaging
Dear Pharmacists,
Recently, one of our locum pharmacists in conjunction with some dispensary staff he worked with highlighted the issue of some medicine packaging which could cause potentially dangerous medication errors in pharmacies especially busy community pharmacies.
Some of this packaging is still in circulation and I believe you must have come across some.
We at TrueQuest are soliciting your support in signing this petition electronically so that it could be sent to relevant publications to further raise awareness.
Help protect patients ! Help protect Pharmacists !
10. Free Ryan Tucker
Ryan Tucker now 29 years old went from an abusive home to prison with no stops in between, he also suffers with epilepsy, has a brain tumor and has had his skull sliced into by a metal fan blade, he depends on medication to survive each day but he also needs therapy to help his rehabilitation.
Returning to prison will not help him become a better citizen, it will destroy the true man inside.
11. Medicaid should pay for AJ Bamburgs Veges Therapy surgery
March 16, 2006
My son AJ Bamburg is epileptic. He spent 10 day in the hospital last July on a Vidio EEG. Trying to get enough information for him to have brain surgery to stop his seizures. It was futile.
AJ has been on seizure medication since he was 8 months old, he is 9 now. The medication is not working. We were told of Veges Therapy. A pace maker like device implanted under the arm that goes up the neck and attaches around the veges nerve preventing most seizures.
Mediciad pays for only $10,000.00 of the surgery. The surgery cost $12,000.00, medicaid will either pay for all or none.
