I agree for the most part but would take issue with a couple of points.
Just because a doc prescribes something long term doesn't mean it isn't healthy. Their objective is to cure the "disease" and as we all know (or should) sometimes the cure is worse than the illness.
Lots of stuff is "tolerable.' Hell, cigerattes and booze can be tolerated by many, but that doesn't mean they're harmless.
600 mgs of gear year round is quite a bit and most people will develop sides after a while. Some may not. Of course these things have to be checked but 600 mgs is far more than you "need."
And yeah, some of the advice I see on this board makes me cringe. But it's a board, not a soapbox for a select few. Everybody has a voice. But thankfully the vets are respected and step up to straighten the record. And even then, there will always be differing opinions.
