When I was (a lot) younger, my sister had a growth on an eyelid.
My parents took her to a specialist, who wanted to remove the growth with
x-rays. Fortunately, my parents had a healthy skepticism for "expert"
advice, and sought a second opinion. The other physician told us
that the growth would go away on its own; and it did.
This and many other experiences have lead me to also have a healthy skepticism for the experts, especially those who, somehow, feel an obligation to save people from themselves. The opinions expressed are strictly mine.

Or is this another outrageous claim that we accuse the anit-radiation forces?No one has published a study, no, but I'm not making up the claim. Many medical departments around the country have reported this phenomenon (parents resisting or refusing CTs for their children after this study was published), and we've seen it at Vanderbilt. I'm also not saying that anyone specifically has died from poor diagnosis, my point is that if we cut back on medical care and research, there are actual human beings involved, not theoretical phantom LNT beings, and there will be real health effects.
