Their expertise is there to guide you, to point you in the way of the information that you need. Personally, I can't imagine a scenario that I'd NOT listen to the doctor, but I shouldn't be prosecuted for it if I do.

So you'd be ok with decisions to totally ignore the advice of the doctor and requisition any drug that someone felt like getting?

Not to speak for anyone but myself, but yes.

If you think otherwise, please explain what you think makes doctors and lawyers different. I mean, more than "I don't see that being the same as writing prescriptions." WHY is that not the same?

Don't understand your question. If the question is as follows:

How is ignoring a doctors advice and being able to requisition any drug you want different from not having a prescriptions?

The answer is they're really not different.

Right.

That's easy, you can't take any medicine you feel like while you do have the right to represent yourself in court.

Ugh. We know what the legal status quo is, the question is to find the JUSTIFICATION for that.
