Med Frenzy - A Conspiracy
An undiagnosable skin ailment affects a large population, but after years of suffering, a female victim discovers the underlying cause and a conspiracy between powerful government and industry entities. She must decide who she can trust to investigate her claim? 9 locations
Hidden practices cause a large population to become afflicted with a rare skin disease, but a female victim discovers the cause and a conspiracy-- but who can she trust to investigate her claim?
Kendra, a single lady, has her social life compromised when she encounters this disease that cannot be diagnosed. She experiences much evidence that parasites are her problem, but anti-parasite medications don’t work and a plethora of medical professionals deny her claim and send her away to find her own remedies.
While unable to get medical help, she endures several episodes of bugs biting her, crawling under her skin, showing up as a rash, and invading her home. She does her best to cover this up with all those she meets except for a confidant girlfriend who tries to advise her. She struggles with this affliction for years, finding her own means of relief, while tempering an anger towards the medical profession and those responsible for her suffering.
While going to several doctors and trying to live a normal life, a combination of drama, horror and comedy ensues. Kendra continues to meet single men, some of whom are connected with the medical profession. She meets a dentist, a podiatrist, and an exterminator, and some of their antics provide comedic relief for an otherwise serious problem.
In the world of a small Research Foundation, the Center for Disease Control and Big Pharma, the identified fibers of the ailment are thought to be man made, a genetically engineered species for a specific purpose. The cause of this disease is not being disclosed, there is conjecture of a cover-up, and the perpetrator is too big and protected to take on legally.
In her personal life, Kendra becomes tired of dealing with people in the medical field, but meets and falls in love with a businessman who turns out to be the head of a medical staff. Inwardly outraged, she gets an opportunity for retaliation when she is asked to speak at a national medical conference and unexpectedly verbally attacks the physicians in attendance for violating their responsibility to help people.
In her search for answers, she discovers the true cause of the disease and an underlying conspiracy. She now must decide who she can trust to investigate this highly political and protected matter.
