<p>Of all the people we trust in life, our doctor is probably the one that we put most of our faith in. We expect him to advise us, call the shots, and keep us out of harm s way. But what if they aren t telling us everything we ought to know, wouldn t that be putting us at risk? Obviously it would be inappropriate to suggest that our primary care physician is trying to harm us, but should we be taking a more pro-active role in our own health and well-being, as opposed to waiting for the doctor to give us instructions? This is what Dr. Anthony Martin is calling into question in his new book Medical Crisis: Secrets Your Doctor Won t Share With You. Perhaps one of the starkest examples Dr. Martin highlights is that of our Doctors urging us to check for lumps in order to catch cancer before it is too late. People are given the idea that cancer development happens overnight. He says, Our doctors urge us to check our bodies by way of early detection. Look at the tip of a ballpoint pen; do you know how long it takes cancer to grow to that size? Five years!! Obviously waiting until you feel a lump is not early detection! So it would appear that we need an earlier warning system than those our doctors are suggesting we use, but what are they and why aren t our doctors telling us? Dr. Martin says that our bodies do in fact give us four very clear indications that things are amiss- not unlike when a car tells you it is low on fuel by a winking light on the dashboard It s exactly the same, he grins, of course we all recognize when our bodies need fuel because our stomach rumbles, but most people have not been told how to read the other signs that our body gives us; the ones that will affect our health well into the future. There are only four so it s very easy. By seeing the signs, and acting on them we could practice preventative health. If our doctors aren t going to look for us, we better start looking ourselves.</p>
