i never did say that i know more, nor did i try to portray it that way, rather, i attested to discovering why certain drug combinations, prescribed to me, gave me akathesia, seratonin syndrome, or warning signs of potassium poisoning; concerns my doctor wouldn't take seriously until i actually dug around endless pubmed journals and studies until i could present with hard evidence of what was happening to me was, in fact, happening to me.
i don't know more than doctors. i have an extremely narrow focus on things i HAD to learn, and preemptively learned so that doctors would actually listen to me when i felt like i was dying.
ask me how say, literally any medication for the heart, lungs, kidneys, liver, gut, bowels, works, i have no fucking idea!
but anything i've been prescribed i had to study, hard, and you wanna know why? when your poor, and the waiting lists for pcps in your area accepting medicaid are literal years long, you go to a clinic.
at clinics, doctors have an extremely limitted amount of time to see, analyze, diagnose, and prescribe a patient, before they're whisked off to the next patient. day in, day out.
so tell me, do you think that you could provide someone with EVERYTHING they need about your field in 15 minute better than somebody, with literally infinite time on their hands, and an entire database containing nearly complete works on (your field) at their disposal?
so yeah, sorry i can't do the impoasible though, i really should've thought to analyse the biochemical properties of the molecule i have in mind, conduct an infinite amount of expiriments to determine what each molecule contained, then sorted each one by group, tested for for purity using gas chromotology, calculated the total values and then pieced it all back together, i'll remember next time!
