Bah!
I just had a bit of a "discussion" on the Feb mums thread. Someone (already!) warning of the negative effects of ultrasound... she didn't like it when i pointed out it wasn't entirely proven there was a link and that a lot more research was needed.
There have been some possible links proposed to birth defects, pre-term labour, misscarriage etc in recent times, but nothing has been proved, and medical professionals say a lot more research is needed to prove one way or the other. This dear lady just basically announced it was as good as fact and we should all question our care providers coz they weren't the be all and end all. Yeah, coz what google tells you in 0.025 seconds is better than that guy who trained 10 years to be your doctor, or that lady who poured over books for 3 years studying the ins and outs of your body's goings on don't have a fooking clue what they're on about....
"People SHOULD question their healthcare professional if they have found conflicting information from another RELIABLE source. Based on research, independent or government funded, whatever, and when things that have been reliably investigated. But I do think the fact "information" is so readily available, just by googling etc, that it's very easy to stumble upon things that are the OPINION of an individual or small group. And this "information" could be on a blog, dodgy website, wherever, but, because of the tendency to believe everything they read, the SOURCE doesn't matter to some people, it's just what's said that counts.
Basically, what I think is this: Feel free to inform yourselves til your poor brains can't take in another word, but please, PLEASE, be informed from the right sources. Just coz google says it, doesn't mean it's true. "
I agree sweets! Until such point as my dr says DON'T go near an ultrasound,I will not be concerned
I also have two close family members in the medical profession who work with some of the leading dr's in SA.. If there was a concern, I would have heard from my Mum and her twin! X
