Sunday House Call, #606, March 26, 2017: Medical news butchery

Sunday House Call, #606,  March 26, 2017

Topics today include:

An excellent report by Tom Hauser of KTSP-TV in Minneapolis-St. Paul on medical news reporting. He interviews Dr. Gary Schwitzer, publisher of HealthNewsReview.org about how badly news outlets report health news.

Your calls about a caller experiencing numbness in his lower legs and feet who is likely developing diabetic neuropathy, the fraud that is Q-Ray bracelets for treating arthritis, Morton’s neuroma, nighttime muscle spasms, and a follow up from a caller who, two weeks earlier called to report sudden vision loss in her right eye. She called back to let us know what happened.
