Beware Of Fake Medical Tests And Diagnosis by hariorh: 2:54pm On Mar 20, 2013
De-MYSTIFYING "WONDER" TESTS!

Its gradually becoming a widespread popular practice to see some persons who go from place to place, visiting homes, schools & offices, claiming to carry out "multi-diagnostic" computerised health tests.

Regardless of the exact variation of "instruments/tools" employed by these people, the story is usually the same! They have come into possession of some ultra-modern diagnostic equipment that can assess every system of the body without need for blood tests, radiological investigations, clinical examination or laboratory support. A real awesome marvel! J

Just pay some "fee", get connected to the "machine/computer" and get instant diagnosis and sometimes with dozens of pages of results printed out which show test results for every system of the body! So quick, so fast, so convenient, ...SO FAKE! Oh yes, that's right, no typing errors/mistakes there - ITS COMPLETELY FAKE AND A TOTAL SCAM!

Some are even brazen enough to claim they work for the government or some international health bodies. What guts!
They come in different forms...some use some thermometer-like probes attached to different parts of the body or held in the hands. Others employ more crude methods such as placing the feet in large bowls containing some "treated solutions" that claim to drain all infections from the body.

And then after their "computer diagnosis" has been done, they now go ahead to prescribe and sell their "potent" cure, which is often quite expensive, that they just happen to have with them at that particular time. Then, they go off happy with your money in their pockets while you go off poorer, depressed and with a new "sickness" to cope with!
People, its all a bunch of lies and a web of deceit that's unfortunately engendered by a poor regulatory system.

BE WISE! There's no such real multi-diagnostic system!
