ABER:

Wer das System kennt weiss, dass hier immer mit Halb- oder sogar Unwahrheiten gearbeitet wird:

wenn ein Patient als “austherapiert” aus dem Krankenhaus entlassen wird und er einen Komplementärmediziner “als letzte Hoffung” aufsucht und von diesem behandelt wird, dann ist prinzipiell die komplementäre Therapie am Tod des Patienten schuld. Ich habe dies selber schon zigfach miterleben dürfen!

Stirbt ein Patient mit Schulmedizin “hat es bei allerhöchstem Einsatz aller Möglichkeiten leider nicht gegriffen”, war er noch beim Komplementärmediziner “wurde ihm die rettende Behandlung vorenthalten” und es wird nach dem Richter gerufen, klassisch aktueller Fall dazu “Tod durch Homöopathie“. Schlechte Behandlungen durch religiös-fanatische Eltern und einem unqualifizierten Behandler, wird es immer Geben und ist kein Indiz für / gegen irgendeine Behandlungsstrategie, ja – dies gibt es regelmässig auch in jedem Spital, millionenfach häufiger (Schweizer Zahlen hochrechnen auf Weltweit!) ohne dass man desswegen prinzipiell alle Spitäler sprengen müsste.

Sei dies bei Steve Jobs, der trotz alle dem seine Überlebenszeit auf das 10fache des statistisch üblichen Pankreas-Karzinom-Patienten ausdehnen konnte, sei dies bei Steve McQueen – schuld ist der letzte “Komplementärmediziner”.

Misplaced Blame-The Case of Steve McQueen and Dr. Kelley

Dr. Gonzalez’ mentor, Dr. Kelley (who developed the cancer program Dr. Gonzalez now uses), treated Steve McQueen. McQueen ultimately died, although he lasted almost a year under Dr. Kelley’s care.

“He was terminal when he came to Dr. Kelley,” Dr. Gonzalez says. “He had failed radiation, failed immunotherapy. He had been misdiagnosed for a year. The reason he ended up with Stage 4 mesothelioma is because he was misdiagnosed by his fancy conventional doctors in Southern California.

Then they gave him radiation – there’s not a study in the history of the world showing that radiation helps in mesothelioma; they gave it anyway. Then they gave him immunotherapy. There’s not a study in the history of the world saying that immunotherapy helps in mesothelioma. They did it anyway. Then he was dying and he went to see Kelley. He died, and Kelley got all the blame-not the doctors who misdiagnosed him! In fact when you read the newspaper articles, there are still articles about how Dr. Kelley killed McQueen.

No, cancer killed McQueen.

You see, an oncologist at Sloan-Kettering can do a bone marrow transplant on celebrity patients. They die, and he’s written up like a hero… Kelley tries to help after conventional doctors failed miserably and misdiagnosed him, and McQueen lived longer than he should. (He was a half-compliant patient – he continued to smoke, drink, and eat ice cream.) I told Kelley when I first met him, “The biggest mistake you’ve made with McQueen is you took him as a patient. You should have told him to hit the trail.”

Dr. Kelley is now dead. But 30 years later, he still gets blamed for McQueen’s death. About two or three years ago, there was an Op-Ed piece in the Wall Street Journal attacking unconventional cancer therapy. They talked about McQueen, and how Kelley killed him. … Conventional oncologists lose patients every day, and no one says they’re murdering anybody. Instead they’re considered heroes for trying so hard.”

As Dr. Gonzalez says, it’s not even a double standard; it’s like being in an alternative Universe. If you’re a conventional oncologist, you can do no wrong, you’re lauded as a hero despite your failures, and you make a lot of money making them. Meanwhile, alternative practitioners may succeed again and again, and still be considered dangerous quacks. This is a mindset that has absolutely nothing to do with scientific validity, objectivity, or evaluation of data. It really falls into a category more reminiscent of religious fervor.
