Notes from the Practice of Harold Goodman, D.O.

It sure is hard to treat a label. Tuesday, May 05, 2009

Today I treated a man whom I had treated a few years ago for symptoms of Multiple Sclerosis. His symptoms went away for a few years and just started to return. They were all on the left side.

Boy, was I surprised and shocked to find his left sacro-iliac joint, left diaphragm, left temporal bone, left atlanto-occipital joint, left shoulder, clavicle and other joints all with major problems.

Notice a pattern here??

He talked at length about MS. I told him that I find what the body is doing that could cause this and treat it. I don't try to treat the disease; it's just a label, which is something we often forget.

You can't treat a label , though many physicians still haven't figured this out apparently.

It's a lot easier to treat the body than a label. Well, at least that's my experience.
