The joys of treating the symptoms and not the cause. This is a problem with the entire concept of the medical industry. When we put profit before cures we get this situation. And for that matter the medical industry is hell bent on keeping so many of these conditions going so there is a reason to keep creating more drugs and more profit.

I love the old Franklin saying, "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure" and it is just as true today as it was then.
