‘THE ONGOING ADDITION OF DOCTORS’.
The question is ‘why’ have they been allowed to do so for decades without being challenged, “is such safe”??? The answer to this, is when such injections started way back in the early 1920’s in fact 1921 there were NO regulatory requirements Governments placed the trust and expertise in the hands of the Medical Profession without any checks and balances in place. In fact, the first injectable toxic chemical used as a dye in x-rays soon led to Chemically Induced Adhesive Arachnoiditis within the subarachnoid space, [spine] and due to such was stopped not by the Government but by the end-users themselves, the Doctors injecting such into the patients. This was due not so much for the welfare of the patients, but for ‘self protection’ legally.
The American FDA being the World Regulatory of new drugs had in place by the early 1900s a set regulatory requirements known as a New Drug Application [NDA] for Companies wishing to submit a new drug for Marketing. What was NOT in place was a set regulatory requirements for Companies wishing to submit an application for a General Marketing License for diagnostic radiographic x-ray toxic contrast mediums. [Dye] for until then end-users were using ‘Air’ in such procedures. [“Air is cheap”]
A specific regulatory requirement on x-ray contrast mediums [dyes] never arrived until 1969 almost half a century later, due to the thalidomide issue, by this time the medical profession had injected this “dye” injuring close to 60 million patients throughout the world 20 million of these in the US and tens of thousands here in Australia without any knowledge of doing so. Why was this? Well those carrying out these injections were not ‘linked’ to the patent’s GP, Specialists and such like, furthermore, the development of chemically induced adhesive arachnoiditis is insidious. The slow damage to peripheral nerve roots and the related man-made disability for many [but not all] develops over time and a relationship to the cause, a past injection of what was deemed to be safe, was never considered.
Today, here in Australia and around the world the practice of ‘off-label’ use continues without any Governmental oversight or Regulatory approval of such practice in place. I believe not only these end-users need to be held accountable BUT also the Government Regulators, of each of the 107 Counties where it was used, sadly many of those once employed by these Government Regulators throughout the world are NOW working for the the Manufacturer’s or subsidiaries.
My Blog explains how many Australians today have been harmed by this unregulated x-ray dye and ‘other’ such injectable substances into the CSF of the spine [and elsewhere].
The first contrast medium causing horrendous pain and disability was lipiodol an x-ray oil based dye (1921-1946) then came Iophendylate Pantopaque or Myodil another oil base x-ray dye [1936 – 1996] causing chemically induced adhesive arachnoiditis.
Also, my research and that of others show that even the newer water base x-ray dyes cause chemically induced adhesive arachnoiditis and the related horrendous pain and disability.
It's clear today, what has happened and its cause, it's now up to you the reader to understand how this was allowed to happen.
