Merck: Fund studies into the Post Finasteride Syndrome

[Daviddoff]

@BP7667

By the way, back to the original topic. Merck will never, ever fund studies into PFS unless it so forced to, quite literally, at gunpoint. As part of some binding agreement or by the government itself. It will simply never happen, if you can’t figure this out on your own, you really don’t understand how things work. Since it would be tantamount to them admitting guilt. And the FDA and government in general value Merck’s profits far, far more than they value the lives of a few thousand men. They sacrificed many times more people’s lives in past conflicts remember that. It is almost childish to even consider this as an option. There are many people, in powerful positions, who really just don’t care about the well-being of anyone else except themselves. Not one bit, because they can’t see how screwing over your neighbour, hurts the entire neighbourhood… so to speak.

Just trying to encourage realism. It’s a horrible situation, but try to look for actual potential avenues that might benefit us.

Maybe you are right but I prefer to try on this petition until better potential avenues come up. It’s still better than doing nothing.

There are better avenues already. But they take more effort then doing an online petition. And may require some personal sacrifice.

It wouldn’t hurt to share what you think those avenues may be

So basically your asking for a leader, but you won’t listen to one even if they appeared.

I basically suggested it could be helpful if you shared constructive ideas. I didn’t mention or imply anything about a leader. Many people are contributing to the PFS cause already in various ways but more good ideas are always helpful. I don’t understand why you assume nobody would listen to a “leader” if one appeared.

I agree that Merck is most definitely not going to fund research into PFS but I don’t see how an online petition hurts anything. If anything, it is a little thought provoking for the general public as to why that outcome is a near impossibility.

I know his mother, but I never wanted to come up talking about this subject as she is still very affected by the loss of her own son.

Hi Davidoff,

I think maybe you should tell her. I know it’s really hard, but when something like this happens, a mother probably asks herself a lot of questions about what she did wrong for her son to finish his life. I know it is an extremely hard issue, but maybe knowing something about it would be better for her. But maybe I’m wrong.
