"That realization may help answer questions such as why different patients respond differently to the same medications. In turn, it shows that the patient-clinician relationship has a measurable, quantifiable and relevant impact on the brain, emotions and clinical outcomes." We always have a special bond with our patients and maybe that is why, when our patient moved away, they usually will come back to get a treatment whenever they are in town. That special connection helps in healing and cant be broken.

This could be a game changer! "The test costs $5 and detects COVID-19 infection in 15 minutes. This new BinaxNOW rapid antigen test made by Abbott Laboratories uses a nasal swab in the same manner as a rapid flu test. Unlike most of the other nasal swabs used to test COVID, this one doesn’t have to be jammed all the way up in the nose. According to Abbott, and this is listed on the FDA’s website, the test has demonstrated 97.1% sensitivity and 98.5% specificity. These tests ...are compared to samples that tested positive with the PCR method, and they then compare the results. Also, I should mention that the NIH does independent tests to verify the accuracy of coronavirus tests because its hard to trust a company’s own numbers. But these are the numbers that the company is claiming, and so far there aren’t independent tests that have been done. The FDA said in a statement that negative results with Abbott's test may need to be confirmed with a lab test in some cases. For example, if there is a high suspicion that someone has COVID based on their symptoms or exposure." See more
