Subject: [Puptcrit] Puppeteers and Medecine


This is slightly off topic.

Yet, since most puppeteers I've known so far are critical thinkers and 
follow their own paths, I guess there may be some useful advice and fun 
stories to be gleaned from here.

My main question is:
What medical approach(es) work best for you, especially as a practicing 
puppeteer? What do you recommend for a whole person approach?

.What health and medicinal program do you recommend for an overall healthy 
life?
.Do you have faith in occidental mainstream medecine?
.Have you any "medical horror stories" to share with us?
.Have you any "medical wonder stories" to share with us?
.How do doctors and other health practitionners react when you tell them 
your profession?
.Is your health practitionner aware and sensitive to the demands of our job?


Background:
I just went to the hospital for some tests, to see what the heck is wrong 
with me ol' body machine full of weird but mild symptoms. Some proven good 
news, some great humane service, some ridiculous claims, some out of line 
chastising, and some misplaced medecine pushing later, I'm a but confused as 
to how the medical field of today actually works...

One great news: That dramatically bloody right eye I woke up with yesterday 
(it's a mystery how it got that way)  is absolutely nothing to worry about. 
Like a bloody nose, but in the eye. Sound more painful than it is (burst 
blood vessels), it just feels a bit dry. I'm glad. That one was the last 
drop that convinced me to go to the butcher- euh...hospital. I don't take 
chances with my eyes!
