Overdiagnosis
One does not need to be a doctor, to realize that what attending physician Olusola Ajilore and resident physician John Ernzen are doing does not ring true.
It starts with the wrong premise, that a young man who has been the victim of psychiatric abuse, has a degenerative mental illness. Thus, apparently all evidence to the contrary can be dismissed or minimized, and they can base their diagnosis on the mistakes of the past — and the long lasting effects of psychotropic drugs improperly given to a young man to supposedly help him do better in school.
There are supposed to be minimum standards of care in psychiatry. This must be the most corrupt branch of medicine, and certainly the least scientific. The drug they prescribed, is the drug that Johnson & Johnson was criminally fined $2.2 Billion dollars for improper marketing. Criminally.
But, even so, there are supposed to be minimum standards of care in psychiatry, applied at other hospitals — such as Mayo and Johns Hopkins.
It does not ring true that in late 2016, a young man is involuntarily held at UIC Hospital, to coerce him to take medications to help him do better in school, and then 8 months later, he is declared legally disabled. During the 8 months, he was taking the medications as prescribed by UIC doctors.
This is not just getting a bad haircut at a barber school, this is life changing when horrible decisions were made. A bad haircut will grow back, bad medical care has terrible consequences.
Now, we are in for another “bad haircut” at the “doctor school”.
According to the Schizophrenia clinic at Johns Hopkins, about 51% of the people that came there with a diagnosis of schizophrenia were NOT schizophrenic. And, at the Mayo Clinic …
One can hardly imagine a barber school blaming a bad haircut on the customer, but at the UIC “doctor school”, that is what happens when they have a bad outcome.
Would it make sense to any good doctor, that if a person had a degenerative mental illness, that the longer they were off drugs, the better they got?
Would it make sense to a good doctor, that if medications were supposed to help someone do better in college, and then 8 months later, they are legally disabled and never took another college class … that maybe they need more medication?
