Years ago, anthropologist Margaret Mead was asked by a student what she considered to be the first sign of civilization in a culture. The student expected Mead ...to talk about fishhooks or clay pots or grinding stones. But no. Mead said that the first sign of civilization in an ancient culture was a femur (thighbone) that had been broken and then healed. Mead explained that in the animal kingdom, if you break your leg, you die. You cannot run from danger, get to the river for a drink or hunt for food. You are meat for prowling beasts. No animal survives a broken leg long enough for the bone to heal. A broken femur that has healed is evidence that someone has taken time to stay with the one who fell, has bound up the wound, has carried the person to safety and has tended the person through recovery. Helping someone else through difficulty is where civilization starts, Mead said." We are at our best when we serve others. Be civilized. - Ira Byock.
One of my professors in school (an MD) stated that one should not receive more than one cortisone shot per year, and no more than three on a lifetime. Looks like even one could be too much. Unfortunately I've had patients that received four and more in a year, into the same joint!!!
A possible explanation in terms of modern anatomy and physiology of how acupuncture works. http://www.doctorschierling.com//fascia-acts-as-second-ner

We should eat breakfast like they do in Europe.
I have treated several people who had taken levaquin. Mostly for tendon inflammation and pain. It is nasty.
