		<title>What does Crohn&#8217;s feel like?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[It feels like an alien is about to pop out of your guts. You think I&#8217;m exaggerating? You have no idea. Before I get to that, I want to clear my tabs in this last post of the year. First, you should read Bob Herbert&#8217;s op-ed about the Senate&#8217;s plan to fund health care by [...]]]></description>

		<title>The clinical and the social</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I think themes for Grand Rounds is a bad idea, but Edwin Leap&#8217;s question &#8211; &#8220;What would you like to say to future physicians?&#8221; &#8211; is one I have thought about prior. So, imagine you are a graduating medical student, and I am your fabulously well-paid commencement speaker*: Hello Class of [insert year]. Congratulations on [...]]]></description>

		<title>House, MD</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I mentioned that many doctors think Scrubs is the most realistic medical show on television. According to ER Drama,  the least realistic &#8211; no surprise &#8211; is House, MD: Watching House, MD though, things have been taken to an even higher level of unrealism&#8230; So why does this matter? It matters because there are a [...]]]></description>

		<title>Just deserts</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;m not a regular Daily Kos reader, but yesterday I clicked through from NOW! Blog to The Conservative Argument Against Universal Health Care. One item on that list caught my eye: Just desserts Related to the previous argument, the &#8220;just desserts&#8221; argument says that people deserve what they get. [...] By this argument, the outcome [...]]]></description>

		<title>The Billy Tauzin Experience</title>
		<description><![CDATA[A few posts back, I pointed out that Billy Tauzin presumes to speak for patients, despite not appreciating the typical experience of patients in our health care system. I wrote that knowing Mr. Tauzin had survived a bout of cancer against long odds. My point was not that Mr.  Tauzin has no experience with illness, [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[One of the best things about blogging is the people that interact with me here and elsewhere in the blogosphere, and what I learn from them. For example, Joe Wright commented on my post about disease organizations, and points to a response on his own blog. You should read his post &#8211; in particular, towards [...]]]></description>

		<title>Don&#8217;t Walk</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I mentioned a while back that I have some problems with the research/fund-raising agenda most disease organizations pursue. I want now to be more specific: most of these organizations are not helpful, and possibly detrimental, to the lives of sick people. You know the organizations: the sort that sponsors showy fundraiser walks, always clad in [...]]]></description>
