I was thinking about the Holistic approach to medicine, and considered the Leech. Similar to sorcerers in Egypt. Don't get me wrong there is good medicine and bad medicine. It made me start thinking if there is anything wrong with Leeches. And I started thinking about the process and whether Leeches have bacteria in their mouths. They attach themselves to the blood vessels and tissue of the body, and do have bacteria in their mouths.

So then the doctors may have to attempt to control the bacteria from the leeches mouth. And that is a gamble of whether or not they can control that process. And I have a lot of doubts about their sanity. As I see many medical accidents all over the place as I research the disease of medicine malpractice.

Let's take a look at the factual information:

I've watched video of leech therapy on eyes.

It sounds medieval to me. A very primitive practice. Though if it works in contemporary therapy,God be praised.

I don't see myself able to steele my nerves so to find out if it is so at that personal experience level.
