Facial Asymmetry is the best sign or indicator of early Alzheimer’s Condition, and evidence of latent brain injury. A brain injury occurring in utero or in neonatal timeframe typically results in contra-coup damage. Any brain damage can result in many complex medical problems, including early onset of Alzheimer’s disease.

Recognition of Facial Asymmetry and/or mental development concerns begins at about age five years. The child begins to self-notice or recognize subtle changes or differences in appearance, reflexes, posture, and proprioception. In mild form, others may not notice.

The affected child, male or female, begins and learns to compensate. Such compensation is a trial and error process. Full time mentality for such compensation is necessary.

Consequently, the child subtly becomes slightly aggressive, socially, educationally, and defensively. Such aggression helps to develop respect and social acceptance and eventual success in competing with peers.

A specific example and an alternate are presented. The first example involves a worldwide, well-known, recently presumed decedent.

The second type of injury is well-known in Dermatology, ‘en coup de sabre’, with similar prognosis.

First example is facial asymmetry. The subject is pertinent to a major worldwide aeronautical disaster mystery, Flight MH370. The forensic signs are clear, from public photographs. There is no brain/body for autopsy, to diagnose brain injury, per se.

The photograph clearly shows the left face is larger than the right face, in a recent pre-accident picture. Also, the left eye/orbit is larger and higher than the right. The left eyebrow is higher and thicker than the right. The left upper and lower lip is lower than the right. The left nares and nostril and nasal fold are higher and larger than the right.

The photograph estimated ten to twenty years prior, reveals same defects, less prominent. Also shorter right forehead hairline, recessed more than the left, smaller size scalp on right.

Those children that are successful in the first eighteen years, typically carry their successes through college and approximately through age forty-something.

Beginning in the forth-fifth decade, early Alzheimer’s typically develops. The affected are usually first to recognize changes. They are reluctant to seek professional help because of the consequences to their careers.

The next phase, renewed conscious compensatory efforts ensue. The individual proprietivly seeks vitamins, O.T.C. medications, begins reading, researching, and familiarizing personal and occupational procedures and tasks in order to increase and maintain affect and skill levels. This becomes tiresome, worrisome, and fear develops.

Some individuals, fearing the worst, initiate plans for exit! One form of exit, could be self-martyr, to cover themselves, with complete disregard for all others.

Most individuals endure as long as possible, seek medical advice, retire or semi-retire, and eventually requires constant assistance. There are many forms, types, and causes of Alzheimer’s disease. The above description is but one specific type.

NEW SECTION
….One of the major early-on decisions for every teenager is realistic planning for their future, and learning and structuring their education in appropriate direction. A lone wolf plan won’t work.

The teenage prospect must explore every possible aspect necessary to prepare for each and every requirement and step that leads them to fulfill qualifications, at above average standards. Each student must seek help and guidance from family, counselors, friends, and their teachers at school and in family religious programs.

Any teenager that aspires for a learned degree faces a huge hurdle!. Realism is necessary but not absolute. Major factors include Socio-economic aspects, innate ability, mental and physical stamina, perseverance, and application and aptitude for the task. Some shortcoming can be overcome.


The Learned degrees historically include three areas: J.D, MD, and Theology. There may be recognizable areas developed over past fifty years, involving Physics, to include Space Sciences, Communications (Internet), Forensics, and other specialized arenas.

The pathway to a Learned degree is huge, with little or no room for disruption or transgression. However, as the teenager grows, plans can change. If necessary, as the circumstances and motivations change, so can the directions change. With the best laid plans, change is more likely than not!. The bottom line is at least a bachelor degree in college. 


For all of those that pursue a medical degree, when the point of interview with a prospective medical school arrives, the interviewer focuses strongly on the motivation and physical and mental aptitude, and economic capacity to complete the Doctoral Program. The applicant must also have well rounded civil and social attributes to satisfy the interview requirements for admission

There is inherent respect for the Learned degree in most civilizations. However, respect is not a ‘given ’, and to be sustained, must be earned!

After fifty years of military and civilian practice and experience at high levels, the ‘right’ to develop opinions is earned. Such opinions often are blended with science and experience. In the USA, everyone has the right to express their opinion, by law.

And, so, I am choosing social media, as the main forum to do so. For better or worse, please bear with me.

Merci beaucoup!

​Treatment, short and long term, is somewhat complex, mentally and medically.

Cardiology can help, but not alone. Hematopoiesis, with Vit. B12, B1 @ Tx. level, for neurogic, metab. impact on smooth muscle function & blood flow/ vol., and neurologic repair and function. Will also benefit fibromyalgia, diabetic pedal neuralgia & overall health.

Tx. Is mostly by IM weekly inj’s. Results apparent after 3 weeks. Continue weekly for 6 to 12 weeks, then pts. can be trained for self injection with Rx. for B12 & B1,and followed by office visits Q 3 weeks. Approp. Lab tests at each visit to monitor. 

Irradiated Vit. A and D, available free in milk (USA), one full glass mid- morning, followed by UV Light @ 280-320 nm via ‘skinny-dip’ exposure to sun light 12 noon-2pm, limited to 15 minutes, 5 days per week. Is very helpful for full body health (Heliotherapy). Do not exceed this dose!. Can also use temporary enhancers during Tx. regimen.

Above Tx. can be amplified on initial visit with one single dose of a Macrolide antibiotic (Lincocin/Clindomycin)*, and Depomedrol IM (or dose pack Rx.)

Rationales to be explained later.

There are several medications (enhancers) that underwent serious investigations, and later re-directed toward a visible side-effect for their specific impact, namely: Erectile Dysfunction (Viagra/Cialis/Levitra, e.g.). Their actions are unidose, require sexually directed stimulation, and long term use risk and benefit unknown.

There are multiple infections, allergic & immunologic, and metabolic, and medication side effects that can result in Erectile Dysfuction. Medical evaluation is very important, starting with the primary care Doctor.


*Absolute safety when administered IM, only.

The Cuban Expeditionary War
The Vietnam Expeditionary War
President Lyndon Johnson
President JFK

The US Government has established a Federal Holiday in honor of and in respect for military personnel that served our country honorably and with valor in times of war. Such a holiday also serves to recapture and stimulate memories of special events that can be shared with the public. For good reason, certain events need to be shared. In these instances there have been 55 years for one event, and 50 years for another. The delay was due to fear, personal safety concerns and timing.

The events occurred in The Cuban Expeditionary War (1962) and later a series of events in The Vietnam Expeditionary War (1966-1967). After 55 years of low–key profile on my military career….Reflection time!

Honors and Awards included Cuban Expeditionary Medal, Vietnam Expeditionary Medal, Bronze Star, and Air Medal with two Clusters (Combat Medal).

A special memory involved a grateful handshake and some kind words from President Lyndon Johnson during his historic war-time visit to Cam Ranh Bay in 1966. The President showed personal attention for special services extemporaneously provided by me as a monsoon rapidly and suddenly appeared, while he was inspecting the inflatable hospital. I had the only single lens reflex, 35 mm, and automatic flash camera available at that moment. A photo-op was staged at the entrance of the inflatable ward, with a red-headed nurse, with a broken right leg in a white cast, and wearing blue hospital pajamas. The President agreed to sign the cast! 

The security agents promptly seized the camera, politely, and promised to return it later. They did, six months later, with burnt out Kodachrome, which I still have!

Those photographs appeared on the Covers of ‘LIFE’ and ‘LOOK’ magazine within a week. The credits for the photographs and payments went to the Hospital Commander and security personnel of The President.

Explanation of this ‘theft’ was simply: R.H.I.P.* 

I was the first Dermatologist/Syphilologist ever in the history of Vietnam, including militaries. Skin conditions comprised 35 % of all medical non-combat conditions in military war zones; Sexually Transited Diseases about 10 % . My mission was multiplex, and involved diagnosing and treating patients at Cam Ranh Bay referral hospital, consulting at approximately 30 other bases, all services, developing ‘cook book’ manuals for skin and venereal diseases for diagnosis and treatments at Medical posts, clinics, M.A.S.H. units and distributing the booklets to the doctors and medics and nurses along with instructions, rationales, and simple lectures, and 35 mm slide demonstrations. All of these booklets were approved by the Chief of Medicine (Dr. /L/ Col Frederick Conrad) and the Hospital Commander.

The booklet on Venereal diseases included 13 known diseases at that time. Each disease had typical incubation times. Gonorrhea, approximately 48 hours, was very common. G.C. tended to mask other VDs and / or treatments could mask other diseases with longer incubation time.

If a patient presented with other VD signs, there was a concern about other concurrent diseases. Many patients had more than one VD. If they had five or more, a special term evolved: BINGO! In such cases, laboratory specimens were obtained and sent to Tan Son Nhut Air Base in Saigon, and /or air delivered to Clark AFB, Philippine Islands. If and when lab results were returned timely, more appropriate treatment was instituted. The VD booklet became known as the Bingo booklet!

All missions in the combat zones are considered combat missions. Each mission has risk! In my own case, there were nine ‘near misses’. The explanation for my survival is basically three: God’s will, good luck, and survival of the fittest!

There was only one serious injury, a hair-line fracture of five thoracic spinous processes, for which three weeks of extension treatments at Cam Ranh Bay Hospital worked well.

The injury occurred outside of Bien Hoa Air Base. L/Col Conrad and I were on a Huey helicopter preparing to land in a field behind the base, when we came under enemy fire. The pilot told us to jump out the back immediately as he began lift off. We jumped out at 40 ft. above the ground into a heavy brush field and were able to get through the fence onto the base. We later flew back to Cam Ranh Bay by C-47, solo.

In mid 1967, now Col., Dr. Conrad was assigned to Wilford Hall Military Hospital, San Antonio TX. He later retired, and engaged at MD Anderson Hospital, as Chief of Oncology. In 1982 Dr. Conrad was assassinated by unknown perpetrator (s),in his office al the Hospital. FBI investigation, interviewed me by telecom about 30 times. Case never solved, yet. (See Google search: Dr. Frederick Conrad, Oncologist).

Another near miss, occurred, on the ground, during a Med-Cap mission North West of Cam Ranh Bay while providing volunteer health care for Vietnam villagers . Our medical group, one doctor, eleven nurses, one corpsman, and only one rifle went into the jungle, along a narrow path to reach the village. About twelve elderly adults, four young children and a bunch of village animals like chickens, dogs, pigs, etc, welcomed us. A ‘clinic’ was set up in the only building structure there. After about 20 minutes, multiple V.C., with AK-47’s, surrounded us.

We all knew we were in trouble, when the pigs and dogs quietly disappeared, the waiting ‘patients’ and the children disappeared suddenly. The remaining elderly female patient that I was examining with the stethoscope became nervous, and several VC entered. I ordered the rest of my team to set on the dirt floor, remain absolutely still and quite. With mixed Vietnamese and English I stood up, waived the stethoscope, and spoke strongly to the VC leader in the door way, and told him I was treating his mother! Suddenly, he smiled, bowed, signaled to his soldiers, they all silently disappeared. The old lady got up, my crew got out, onto the six-by vehicle and made a hasty return, through the jungle , all the way to the South China Sea, along the beach, all the way back to Cam Ranh Bay.

To this day, I believe that the VC soldier actually spoke good English, and liked the ‘mother’ story!

A major impact of my active, regular Air Force career, occurred in 1962.

My rank, Captain, and my flight-surgeon training and experience in the Tactical Air Command resulted in special assignment for the Cuban Expeditionary War, about to erupt. My Hospital Commander had just been promoted to General, assigned to the Surgeon General’s office, and he sent me to a top-secret base in Florida, to prepare for the invasion of Cuba.He sent me in his stead!

The secret base was actually a closed, shuttered Naval Air Station, hidden from public view, located near Orlando (pre Disney) FL, and fifty miles beyond range of Cuban/Russian missiles. The mission was for logistic support, regarding supplies and very important medical support. The Medical Commander, according to the War Plan (which I submitted, and which was accepted and approved by the Senior Command) was supposed to deliver Multiple M.A.S.H. units, and personnel for instant use at a proposed site in Cuba, not yet acquired. For said purpose, 22 C-119 Flying Boxcars and crews were assigned.

On invasion day, the landing force began the invasion at dawn, and was being decimated. JFK canceled the invasion about 10 am. A new type of hell broke loose!

Between 10:30 am and noon, 13 high ranking General grade officers arrived by air at the Sanford Naval Air Station, Base Operations Office, many from the Carrier Enterprise. A high level secret meeting ensued. The tone was angry. After about 30 minutes, another multistar General arrived. He cased the room, inquiring openly about why a company grade captain was present (namely me). Then, he politely dismissed me and told me to proceed immediately back to Luke AFB.

What I can say now, is that those highest level War Command Officers, all services, were very upset with JFK for cancelling the invasion three hours, after it began, and the decimation of the mixed Cuban and American invasion landing force.

It was patently obvious that these commanders were already planning retribution against JFK. They mentioned three ‘double agent’ assets that they could trust, and two of those could later be found in New Orleans.

After 55 years, I am more comfortable in bearing witness. So many others have died, to inhibit the truth. Also, it is unlikely that any one else present at the secret SNAS meeting, on the day that the Cuban invasion began and ended, that is still alive.

However, there still remain concerns about the mystery of Dr. Conrad’s death, and one other ‘eye witness’ account to complete this chapter.

As it were, Dr Conrad and I traveled all over the South East Asia war theater for one year, during which time we each earned each other’s admiration, respect, friendship, loyalty, and strong professional bonding. During that year together we shared a lot of personal, professional, information and secrets. ‘Bud” and I were true friends. It may be, that Dr. Conrad, at his own discretion, revealed to the wrong people or persons, the above information regarding ….JFK- Cuban War-angry military Commanders-Retribution. 

There is another close friend from Medical School, Internship, Residency and later private practice, 61 years, that trusted me and was aware of the Cuban War information. This doctor was on duty, in the E.R. at Parkland Hospital (DALLAS) when JFK’s body was brought there by two ‘agents’ in a body bag, and placed on a ‘gurney’. Another agent promptly entered, and placed two rifles and three shell casings in the bag on the right side of JFK’s body.

At that instance, the PA System called subject doctor to the Hospital Director office immediately! This doctor was told to leave the hospital immediately, not to go back to his locker to change clothes, or get anything except get out (for his own safety). and to just disappear.

He called me from a pay phone, explained as noted, and asks me to see to his family. He is alive and well at present and still keeping a low profile.

And so, at age 82 I am filling in a gap, while I still can, via Social Media.

R.H.I.P.* Rank Has Its Privileges

Lead Poisoning is not exactly toxic, Arsenic is. Both are eventually fatal. Both are socio-economically catastrophic!

Arsenic, in inorganic form, is present in most USA water supply, both drinking water and agriculture water / irrigation water and pesticides, especially for tobacco and leafy vegetables. The Arsenic is worse than tobacco as a carcinogen.

Arsenic occurs naturally in many foods and can be quite tasty! Examples include cashew and Brazil nuts, sunflower seeds and some grapes.

See attachment of WHO http://www.who.int/mediacentre/factsheets/fs372/en/#

Arsenic in high doses can be instantly fatal. Chronic Arsenic ingestion, in small doses can be progressively fatal. The signs and symptoms of incremental arsenic poisoning can be vague and non- specific, particularly if the intake is not suspected. Chronic arsenic poisoning, in low dose, can be a lung or skin carcinogen / enabler or inducer. In chronic arsenic poisoning, testing is easy; a hair swatch to a medical lab.

The most and worst example in the USA is in the vicinity of a copper mining and smelting facility in Arizona. (Ajo, AZ).

The biggest public works project in USA history could occur next year, bigger than the ‘Border wall’, and at the same time.

Who will pay for these projects?

The Trump / Mex. pay plan is possible for the wall.

The arsenic / lead problems are the fault of the ‘Establishment’ for the past 55 years! Cost: 3 years, $300,000,000,000 +. (*)

The new public demand will inspire the new President and the Congress to respond in a positive and affordable manner in order to help ‘#MakeAmericaGreatAgain”.

The US Gov. requests billions for ZIKA EPIDEMIC.


Congress likely to approve. What is this money for?

There is already a huge budget, federal, every state and every county/city in US, already funded, by Congress, via Public Health and the DHH, and by State budgets.So, what is this new money for?

If new funding is necessary for vaccine preparation, the company that makes the vaccine charges a fee, for each dose, and that’s the company investment, and return. Like measles, government support is necessary 

Cave!. Corruption and conspiracy in the making, billions!

Prevent scandal,

Contact your Representative and Senator.

​This article is prepared at a reader level between Certified MDs, Public Health personnel, and ordinary citizens and businesspersons.



Zika is systemic, from the first moment of contact, either infected mosquitoes bites or Human Mucous Membrane contact, such as saliva (or other body fluids such as sexual activity, or transfusion).
Zika virus (RNA) enters the new host, (Man or Monkey) and at 48 to 72 hours, there are 10,000,000 live viruses in your body system! The system includes the entire organ system (See diagram above).

The virus initially depresses WBCs (White blood cell count). Later, there will be an increased WBC (Leukocytosis). Illness begins about 48-96 hours, in the form of lethargy; due to decrease in blood oxygen levels via red blood cells (RBCs), .This is because of decrease in pulmonary oxygenation, in part due to accumulation of live viruses, and lymphocytes in the bronchi and alveolar tissue, resulting in less RBC oxygenation.

The other early signs and symptoms can be fever, dermatitis, pruritus, smell and taste changes, followed by generalized erythematous dermatitis, except for palms and soles, at 7 to 14 days after inoculation. This generalized dermatitis is often called Erythema Multiforme, which can be fatal!

Later signs/symptoms include jaundice, weakness, headaches, nausea, emesis, and shortness of breath. All of these later signs are ominous.

Individuals with chronic hepatitis, or who are pregnant are at high risk.

The vascular target pathology site is the dermo-epidermal junction, at the end of the arterial flow in the skin, and at the equivalent site of all the internal body organs. This specific site is at the junction of the terminal arteriole-venule vascular change. This microscopic anatomical site is where a micro-infarct occurs. This insult involves every organ in the body and is only visible (while alive) on the skin. See anatomical chart.

Zika is lifelong! The same is true for measles, chicken pox (varicella) and many other RNA viral diseases.

Further impact of Zika to follow this article.

So, please check follow and keep up for more information about this epidemic.

​Just like AIDS, the three M-diseases, involves Man, Monkeys, and Mosquitoes.


There is already collected evidence at most Public Heath agencies and Departments to put into action sexually transmitted disease laws.

Remember; Too Little, Too Late, with AIDS, and beginning to become late with Zika.

Public Heath officials, at all levels, please do your paid jobs, now! Help with public health pronouncement and legal measures to promote and protect against sexually transmitted diseases. Such measures are already in place everywhere.

Would you like fleas and mosquitoes to leave you alone?

Would you like a quick cure for hangovers (ETOH)?

There is a common proprietary treatment!

The treatment is prophylactic for flea bites and mosquito bites, the vectors for diseases such as Malaria, Dengue Fever, Zika, as well as therapeutic for hangovers/intoxication. This treatment is readily available, inexpensive, without prescription, and safe and effective.

Fleas and mosquitoes will be deterred from attacking and biting you, and sucking your blood, if you have therapeutic levels of Thiamine HCL (Vit. B1) in your system. People, pets, and mosquitoes and fleas in close proximity to you can detect and sense the odor and presence of Vit. B1, in/on your skin and system. There is a distinct odor, disseminated by normal insensible water loss, which permeate the proximal air space around your body. Fleas and mosquitoes will leave you alone. No bites, no spread of Malaria, Zika, and/or other vectored diseases.

A hangover is the result of excessive alcohol imbibation. Common symptoms are headache, lethargy, decreased reaction/reflex time and proprioception (touch your nose, walk a straight line).

This empiric and proprietary treatment is quite simple and safe.

For hangovers; SIG, 100 mg of Vit. B1 (Tablet form /oral) every 6-8 hours for 1 to 3 doses. Typically, 100 mg in am, then second dose, and then night time dose at 50 mg, plus 1 tablet of adult Brompheniramine ( Dimetapp). Further treatment is not necessary.

For mosquitoes or flea bite prophylaxis, Vit B1, 100 mg morning and afternoon. At night, 1 adult Dimetapp Tablet. These can be repeated daily when exposed to mosquitoes and/or fleas. Brompheniramine is an antihistamine and is helpful for sleeping at night . It should not be taken when operating machines or driving a vehicle.

Louisiana statistics reveals a decade of investment in providing education, and facilities for access to health care and for training and retaining physicians, general and specialties.

For a decade, 2000-2010, circa 28 M $/per student, in Louisiana was invested for providing education. Total graduates with a MD degree/Specialty training, about 200/per year, equivalent to 2 K for a decade. During the same decade, more than 2,000 sanctions and condemnations by the Louisiana State Medical Board (LSBME), was higher than the total graduates. This resulted in a net loss, a Capital loss of investment by the State, equivalent to 2,000 x 28 M, or $ 56,000,000,000.

This is unbelievable, unrealistic, unconscionable, intolerable, and unacceptable. The State government, including three governors, and the State Legislators, as well as the Department of Health and Hospitals, the federal auditors , and in particular, the LSBME, are responsible, and should be held accountable.

The Secretary of State, in Louisiana, maintains the annual reports that includes the statistics from which the closely approximate calculations are presented herein.

The above problem is not limited to Louisiana. Every state and territory should be audited for this type of horrific financial abyss, and search for corruption, conspiracies, collusion, criminal activities, and outright malfeasance.

One the main problems has been abuse of the 12th Amendment, political, focalized, socioeconomic psychopathy, at the LSBME. There may be, also, a conspiracy with the DHH, to punish physicians, and other medical providers that would not contract with or accept assignment with Federal and/or States Health care agencies.

Other civil rights violations will likely become apparent, such as abuse of the elderly, abuse of the Federal Law regarding equivalency of D.O.s and MDs., and ignoring equivalency status for medical specialties certifications, other than American Board of Medical Specialties (ABMS).Three decades ago, the ABMS declared a moratorium, above the 24 specialties, thereby limiting their certification process to the 24 established specialties. Since then, hundreds of new specialties have evolved, many of which are not recognized by the LSBME, even though such specialties are recognized by the Federal Government and many other states. There is severe economic penalty for those not recognized (and economic benefit to insurers).

Additionally, a much higher level of ancillary federal funding occurred, about 12B $ to support new medical and research and VA Hospital facilities on land acquired by eminent domain. Such acquisition disregards historical sites, public welfare, disrupted families, and businesses.

In pursuit of this project, the State abandoned the historic Charity Hospital and original Medical School sites. The V.A.H abandoned their old hospitals. The abandonment occurred after collecting F.E.M.A. funds, perhaps insurance funds, and incurring large maintenance expenses for the past eleven years.

This new megaplex looks great, but will never be able to sustain itself despite sophisticated proformas to the contrary.

The public, the officials in New Orleans, and the politicians statewide have been led to believe that the faculties, residents, and students will be capable of providing access to health care for the entire city, particularly for the lower half of the socioeconomic society, 24/7. It will never happen!

Private practice has been sabotaged in South Louisiana in the most part by willful conspiracy to channel major grants and funding to major hospitals and federally controlled health care facilities to the advantage of both national and state DHH. The bottom line is, that Medicare and Medicaid and Tri-care all must have hospitals to work with in order to have access to health care and in order to be included in the federal budget.

After all, the stark realization for any health care program or system, there are only two basics requirements in order to get funding , and that is, (a) patients, (b) physicians. All else follows!

Follow these Public Health revelations and socioeconomic involvements as this Medical Detective further investigate a huge problem with national and local access to health care in our country.
