There's nothing wrong with alleviating suffering but you want to mitigate the torment and not compound it. It is imperative you understand life is NEVER the problem. The pain that is invading your life is. Life is an invaluable gift from above. Irrespective of how much pain is riddling your body and/or mind, sending yourself to an eternity in hell is far worse. Think of the big picture. You should be fighting for your life, not fighting to let it go. Clinging on to the lifebuoy that is this ideal when the agony sets in will keep you afloat as you grit your teeth and steel yourself for the battle ahead. You have no choice, staying alive is by far the best option no matter how bad it gets.

Terminal means they're yet alive and breathing, you motherfucking moron, so you're prematurely ending their lives (before their diseases can finish the job). EVERYONE (this includes both the doctor and the patient) is destined to die at some point, there's no difference, murder is murder (taking human life), E-Numskull, I'm afraid you ARE that fucking stupid and worse, way to go you dumb shit, no wonder you're a atheist shithead, PWNED RIGHT OUT OF THE BOX.

I think if you'd ever seen a loved one in the final stages of cancer, you'd really understand why euthanasia is an issue.  It isn't pretty.  If they are young, they can hold on for quite some time

I have seen no more horrendous sight - and I can assure you, no drugs will suffice, at that moment. 

It's just not a publicised thing - what happens when cancer ravages a younger person.  It literally eats them alive.  They don't die in their sleep, looking relatively healthy.  That's the television version.  Older people might go quickly.

I'm not even going to bother debating religion - that's a fools errand, I'm just saying - if you'd seen what I'd seen, you will be shitting bricks at the idea that you've got to live through what is coming.  Good luck with that - I would say it is almost certainly all for nothing, but you can't convince me and I can't convince you to the contrary.

Sounds like he was also bipolar and left untreated it can lead to suicide.

Sad.





Fibromyalgia was probably the least of his problems...The guy sounds like he was extremely unbalanced.

Nope. People just have to learn to deal with life. You must be mad to be advocating murder/suicide. Anyhoo the pain now is way better than offing yourself, going to the fiery pit. Think of the big picture. Life is never the issue. Pain is. You keep getting the two confused.

Well, I have a beautiful wife and daughter now so there's no way I would ever take my own life. The only reason why I'm scared to die is to leave them and to not be able to take care of them. But if I had a patient in a situation where they were in agony, I couldn't tell them no and let them live in pain. If it were my call, I'd let them die the way they want instead of forcing them to life in pain.

It's still suicide. You have to be firm with your principles.

A guy with Fibromyalgia?   That's extremely, extremely rare.   It's mostly all women who get that.

So sorry to hear that.

Fibromyalgia is becoming more common, but unfortunately there isn't any one test that can diagnose it. In fact nobody really knows what it is.

I thought fibroymyalgia was similar to chronic pain disease.

Such as shame.  :(

It is.  What was described sounds more like bipolar, which I've seen coincide with fibromyalgia.  Note sure if that's typical though.
