It now costs about $90 billion annually to deliver the goods; in another few years it will cost m ore than $100 billion buy 20 mg vasodilan free shipping, without a national health insurance pro­ gram discount 20mg vasodilan with mastercard. T he first—the route we are traveling—is to increase the num ber o f suppliers, while fixing the “package” o f “goods” which will be paid for by the government. This is because medical care—the goods to be delivered —does not produce much health, and, with the passage of time, will produce even less. If the commons is thought of as the health of the popula­ tion and not as a pool o f goods to be parceled out by physicians, there is a second way to preserve it. This ap­ proach depends on a reconceptualization of health as some­ thing other than a commodity. W hen this is accomplished, a second step is possible: derivation o f a program for the pursuit of health combining measures of individual respon­ sibility, efficacious curative measures, and interventions into the environm ent. This is not an easy task; in fact because we know so little it is highly problematic. But gradually m easures were developed that worked, even if they were frequently bizarre. Blood was let in sacrifice, dances were danced, incantations were offered, and occasionally medicinals were used. And occasionally, the medicine o f the past worked, often as not because the practitioner was perceptive and sensitive. T he 196 The Transform ations of Medicine first was the discovery that cleansing the environm ent —developing sanitary sewage systems and im proving the potability o f water—appeared to reduce mortality and m or­ bidity. These services were significantly different from most medicine; they were systemic and ecological in nature. They were premised on interventions in the socioenvironment rather than the hum an body. As such they were not mea­ sures that could be reduced to commodities rendered for a price by healers to patients. Eventually, they were not thought o f as medical m atters at all—they were decisions to be m ade by the polity. Medical care, concomitantly, consisted of healing those who were sick—why they were sick, or what cured them if they were cured, was not necessarily relevant. Thus, causes—the conditions and circumstances of life —became divorced from effects. Sickness and its symptoms have been treated ever since, and causes have been neglected. Scientific methodology is a tool of great utility, and scientific problem-solving found a congenial hom e in medicine. Unlike other branches of science, medicine possessed a captive supply of experim ental sub­ jects, and generally found revenue sources for biomedical research easy marks. It cannot be overemphasized that the application of scientific methodology to healing produced substantial benefits. But the case is less convincing today, and will be much harder to make in the future. T he em­ phasis in medicine on material reality—only what can be perceived can be treated and only “symptoms” can be perceived—has driven medicine to extremes. The Eras of Medicine 197 In medicine, as well as in other disciplines, the pursuit of scientific purity results in reductionism of the subject matter. In part, the environm ental crisis we face today stems from our inability to understand our world as an organism—as the spaceship Earth. In chemistry, in biology, and in medicine, increasingly investigators cannot communicate with one another because they have drawn rigid and narrow boundaries around their subjects. In medicine this has re­ sulted in microscopism and specialization—with elegant em ­ pirical fireworks—on smaller and smaller parts of the hum an organism. W hen a physician let blood in the seven­ teenth century, he may not have benefited the patient much, but at least he perceived his patient as a single organism u nder the spell of some “hum our. T he excised organ goes to the pathologist, the physician gets his or her fee, and the patient goes to the tavern. Precisely at a time when it has achieved a feudal, even sovereign status—a state at great variance with its capacity to heal—shifts and ruptures in the larger society expose medicine to changes that will powerfully alter it. M odern medicine shares a certain perception or view of the world and m an’s place in it with the other sciences. This view stresses the separation of hum an beings from their world and their environm ent. Perhaps this world view had survival value when the environm ent was decidedly hostile. We have largely subjugated Na­ ture, although we are beginning to witness its resilience. Slowly the realization is em erging that a new balance must be struck with nature if man is to survive. W hether a new balance can be struck today or w hether m an m ust further evolve in order to strike a new bargain is unanswerable. Nevertheless, contem porary medicine is clearly and 198 The Transformations of Medicine squarely premised on the prevailing world view that sepa­ rates hum an beings from their world.

The child is then roused for 10-15 minutes prior to an episode (use autonomic arousal as timer if it is difficult to time the onset of the terror) discount 20 mg vasodilan with visa. This regime is continued until the terrors stop; in many cases the terrors stopped within one week; if there is a recurrence vasodilan 20 mg mastercard, then the treatment is continued for another week. Some children with terrors have medical problems (reflux, periodic limb movements, sleep-related breathing difficulties) that need attention. Sleepwalking with onset after childhood may be associated with stress, personality problems,(Sours ea, 1963; Calogeras, 1982) or medication. Sleep deprivation, migraine, head trauma, stroke, encephalitis, and hyperthyroidism can also precipitate somnambulism. Nocturnal sleep fragmentation and even insomnia are other aspects of the syndrome. Extremely short (seconds) micro-sleep periods may occur that are not noticeable to either patient or onlooker. Sudden cessation of antidepressants should be avoided because of the potential danger of 442 precipitating episodic or continuous cataplexy. It can be spontaneous or evoked (by the emotional response to cataplexy itself or by stopping antidepressant treatment for cataplexy). However, schizophrenia-like disorders do appear to be more common in narcoleptics than in the general population,(Davison, 1983) and narcoleptic patients with hallucinations may be misdiagnosed as having schizophrenia. Most cases of narcolepsy appear to be sporadic,(Linkowski, 2002) although such cases may have an underlying genetic susceptibility. Doberman pinchers) suffer from familial narcolepsy; narcoleptic phenomena also occurs in mice. Canine narcolepsy (autosomal recessive with full 449 450 penetrance ) is associated with mutations in the orexins/hypocretins receptor-2 gene. The same neurones that produce orexins/hypocretins in mice are activated by modafinil. Short episodes of sleep are repeated frequently and, with time, such naps may become less restorative and nocturnal sleep may become disturbed. During an ordinary night’s sleep the narcoleptic is prone to myoclonus, broken sleep, and pulse and breathing abnormalities. Patients may have disturbing dreams and may complain of sensing a ‘presence’ in the room. Narcoleptics have problems at work, in marriage, in industry, and in traffic throughout life. Knock-out, knock-in, and traditional transgenic mice are genetically engineered mice with genetic material removed from a particular locus, inserted into a particular locus, and randomly inserted (not into a particular locus) respectively. Modafinil induces cytochrome P-450 isoenzymes so that at least 50 μg of 455 ethinyloestradiol needs to be given in anovulants to prevent contraceptive failure. Adverse effects of modafinil include anxiety, agitation, aggression, central stimulation, headache, insomnia, anorexia, abdominal pain, nausea, gastric discomfort, dry mouth, palpitation, tachycardia, and tremor. Occasionally a pruritic skin rash appears, and very rarely one may encounter buccofacial dyskinesia. Psychotic symptoms attributable to amphetamines may abate when the dose is lowered or the medication is 456 changed to modafinil. Eighty percent of patients presenting with restless legs syndrome also have periodic limb movement disorder. A person awakened by hypnic jerking may experience siderealism (feeling as if falling in space). A similar picture may be 459 cause by nocturnal or fragmentary myoclonus and hyperekplexia syndrome (startle disease ). He remains confused and disorientated, so-called sleep drunkenness, and complains of prolonged and deep nocturnal sleep. Menstrual-related hypersomnia involves excessive daytime sleepiness for some days prior to menstruation. Painful legs, moving toes: Continuous unilateral pedal sinusoidal flexion-extension with ipsilateral leg pain whilst awake, with continuation during sleep at a reduced intensity, usually associated with peripheral nerve lesions such as in the lumbar roots. Delayed sleep phase syndrome: This circadian rhythm disorder may affect up to 10% of insomniacs attending sleep disorders clinics. The patient cannot get to sleep until after everyone else and, if allowed, sleeps on that much later. Bright light exposure in the morning and light restriction in the evening may help. Where sleep phase is advanced (advanced sleep phase syndrome) treatment is by evening exposure to 460 bright light.

By the early sixties there existed serious concern about the effect upon foods from chemicals which were either used in their cultivation or production buy vasodilan 20mg without a prescription. The substances which were common in these preparations were lime and copper sulphate cheap vasodilan 20 mg without a prescription, lead arsenate, mercury and arsenic. The development and manufacture of nerve gases, which paralysed the nervous system, which began in earnest after the First World War, had immediate consequences for agriculture. Following the Second World War, the main ingredients in nerve gases, organophosphorous compounds, were used as pesticides. They had certain advantages over chlorinated hydrocarbons, one being that they degraded more quickly. Production of synthetic pesticides in America after the Second World War went from 124,259,000 pounds in 1947 to 637,666,000 pounds in 14 1960. From the very beginning of the use of these substances, illnesses were recorded in direct relation to their use. Awareness of the unhealthy effects of pesticides was felt first in those countries which had developed intensive farming techniques, such as America, Canada, Australia and New Zealand. The initial use of pesticides in the fifties and sixties killed thousands of birds, wild animals and insects. In her book The Silent Spring, published in 1962, Rachel Carson quotes extensively from patients who became severely ill as a consequence of exposure to pesticides and insecticides. She sprayed the entire basement thoroughly, under the stairs, in the fruit cupboards and in all the protected areas around ceiling and nausea and extreme anxiety and nervousness. Within the next few days she felt better, however, and apparently not suspecting the cause of her difficulties, she repeated the entire process in September, running through two more cycles of spraying, falling ill, recovering temporarily, spraying again. After the third use of the aerosol new symptoms developed: fever, pain in the joints and general malaise, acute phlebitis in one leg. Their toxicity was first noted in 1919 and it was estimated that by 1939 six human deaths had occurred as a result of industrial operations with 17 these chemicals. Certain organophosphates will be commonly found in grain and therefore in animal feedstuff and bread. The most prevalent of these auxin herbicides are 2,4,5-T and 2,4-D; the former contains dioxin, an impurity produced during the manufacturing process. Perhaps most importantly, little longitudinal research has been done into the accumulated storage levels of a multiplicity of such toxic substances in the human body. Generally, animal welfare means keeping animals in good short-term condition before they are slaughtered. Most animals reared for meat are nowadays perfunctorily given regular doses of antibiotics, the residues of which are passed on to the consumers. Cattle and sheep are sprayed continuously with chemicals to keep them sterile and free from smaller insects and bacteria. Whatever the cumulative effect upon the inner biology of the animals, the workers who have to douse them are prone to chronic illnesses. In 1990 it was estimated by campaigners that as many as 2,500 farmers could be suffering 19 side-effects from the use of organophosphorous sheep dips. Of the 3-4,000 people who have registered with us after suffering from the effects of pesticides, more than 2,500 are directly attributable to contact with sheep-dip. Doctors and specialists could not get to the bottom of it even after giving me every kind of test, even a brain scan. I have thirteen of the nineteen possible side effects which can come from being in contact with sheep dip. There are farmers who feel they are going crackers because no one will recognise their symptoms. Doctors are amongst those who send sufferers away with no explanation for 21 their dire symptoms. Sheep dip is a mixture of antibiotics and pesticides which protect sheep from scab, fleas, ticks, and mites. Its constituent chemicals can kill fish and present a threat to drinking water supplies. Contamination of ground water by agricultural chemicals of all types has become a serious environmental concern. This concern has moved on from nitrates in fertilizers to include substances which are used above ground. A survey of levels ofpesticide residue in England and Wales, revealed levels above 22 the Maximum Admissible Concentration for any single pesticide in 298 water supplies. It was estimated by the World Health Organisation in 1986 that there were between 800,000 and 1,500,000 cases of unintentional pesticide poisoning worldwide, leading to 24 between 3,000 and 28,000 deaths. There is a continuing increase in the amounts of chemicals used in farming and the acreage which this use covers. In the three years between 1974 and 1977, the area of cereals sprayed with aphicides increased 19 times. Between 1979 and 1982, the area of crops treated with insecticides doubled, while the area treated with fungicides more than doubled.
