marc siegel and we willake a caller from arkansas who is a veteran. caller: this is great to speak to this is the first of might have done this. i may disabled veteran what people don't realize is the united states military are noncommissioned there is socialized medicine and. question number one you cannot sue for malpractice with socialized medicine. that is the fact. obamacare is that government and never to taipei for medicare should i be paying for medicare? it is $100 per month how does this affect non-u.s. citizens for medicaid and medicare? or do they just keep getting yet. gerri: we will start with your last question what about those who were not citizens? there is a difference people are here legally some are illegally out as the law treat them? >> legally like u.s. citizens they do pay taxes in their taxes go to support whatever benefits they are eligible for. illegal immigrants are not eligible for medicaid or obamacare nor medicare. however that is a downstream effect because there also exempt from the employer and individual mandates so

marc siegel from the fox news medical team and also the gentleman good to have you here. where in the world are we going with this system? settle here doctors discussing the debate and i wonder why not? >> the first part there is a big doctor shortage of people understand if you bring in more patients than paid doctors less it is basic business sense you will have a problem so access to medical care is a huge issue on top of that one of the things we are not speaking about is the idea of the 27 new regulations for obamacare will apply to the employer based insurance what we talk about with the state exchanges would be 7 million. the reason refocused. lou: you have a lot of numbers. 110 million? >> these are the people that get insurance from our employer. we're not going to the changes we are already employed -- have coverage but this talks about what kind we can get. lou: 90 million people come through corporate health care plans. we have another 80 million but half of those will be stripped from their ranks from the insurance companies themselves. >> that is rare was go

marc siegel professor of medicine at nyu medical center in here to received a flu shot one of our producers. i think i will join you but how bad i it expected to be? when should they get the shot? >> last year was very bad they had more hospitalizations over the whole past decade over 200 children died it it very early which is why we hear so early this year to get flu shots lke to say they are covered under obamacare you cannot tell because if it is up obamacare shot. [laughter] the cdc shut down where are we? our brief foldable? >> i think we are the good news 135 million shots had been made and distributed so it is not here is a big way yet so efficient down since then they come back with full force two-thirds of the cdc are out. lou: can we get a shot of her as we talk? stay on her discussing the health care sector i think everybody should i am sorry to me me. i take it back.

marc siegel is here. the book is fascinating.y be scared to death or is that an expression? >> you can be scared to death. you get something called the fighter flight response. you get really afraid of danger, and what happens is your heart rate goes up, your blood pressure goes up, you get an outpouring of stress hormones that literally can stop your heart from beating. >> some people say when they get scared it is like a charge. are there positive effects that can go along with? you know, healthy scare? >> hitch cock said we get attracted to something fearful but he used to say you can turn the projector off after "the birds." in real life we think it is going to happen to us. we overpersonallize the risk and get into a cycle of worry, you don't sleep. your heart rate goes up and that's very bad for your health. >> you're talking about the literally results and effects of being scared. temporary blindness, does that really happen? >> what happens is when you have that fighter flight, response, your body reserves blood flew -- f

marc siegel from the fox medical a team.be possible to have all these women in your family with breast cancer, no gene, and you get it? >> 85% of the time this is no first-degree relative and there is no genetic abnormality that's found. some of the time there is a genetic abnormality and we're just not looking in the right places for it. we're getting better and better and better at that. this underlines the point that you have to get screened. and i believe the screening start at the age of 40, >>elisabeth: that age by the health commission has been moved up to 50, i believe. >> i completely disagree with it because the most aggressive breast cancers, the ones that kill the most are between 40 and 50. you don't want to overscreen, but you want to get a baseline and figure out how to follow it. this is breast cancer awareness month. that's my message today. >>elisabeth: even if you don't have a family history, don't wait to get screened. overweight women, are they at the same risk as other women? fact or myth? >> that is a

marc siegel is live in our newsroom with more on this. hi, doctor. >> hi, martha.ion is weighing in on a very controversial restriction on narcotic painkillers, specifically hydrocodone and acetaminophen, commonly known as vicodin. the most commonly prescribed painkiller in the u.s. centers for disease control report a 300% increase in prescription pain pill sales since 1999. 300%. vicodin is listed by the dea as a drug classified as schedule 3. now that means you can get up to five prescription renewals without even seeing a doctor. can be prescribed by a nurse or physician's assistant. fda is recommending changing that category to schedule 2, which is intended for more dangerous and easily over used drugs like adderall, ritalin, and oxycontin. here is part of the fda statement. this determination comes after a careful a thorough analysis of extensive scientific literature, review of public comments and several public meetings which we received input from a wide range of stakeholders, including patients, health care providers, outside experts and other government

marc siegel, member of fox medical a-team. good to see you. >> this is a huge problem. more than 14,000 women die of ovarian cancer every year. it is one of the top cancer killers. there are no specific symptoms. the cancer is hidden deep in a women's body. if found early most women would survive. enter manned an woman's best friend. ovarian cancer has a characteristic odor and few animals can smell it better than dogs can. researchers at the university of pennsylvania are figuring out the exact chemicals that dogs smell when they detect this cancer. >> when a human smells beef stew they smell the whole stew. when a dog smells the stew, they smell different components, carrots, meat, gravy, how does that apply to dogs smelling cancer. >> the dogs can pick out that individual odor of just the beef. >> it isn't practical for hospitals or doctors offices to have k-9s sniffing patients for cancer or even sniffing their blood samples but the upenn scientists are collaborating with research is at at center in philadelphia that would create a electronic sensor that would ident

marc siegel is with the fox news medical a-team. professor of medicine at nyu langone medical center. the result of all this, despite the claims of helmet manufacturers, there was no appreciable difference in the protection afforded by those helmets. >> jon, i am not surprised. when you think about it it is a whole cultural problem. we teach our high schoolers to lower their head and charge ahead. they're using their role models, the nfl, trying to be like them. the parents are out there, fathers are worst, rooting them on. when you think about it, why would a helmet prevent that kind of concussion from occuring? i mean the helmet is getting hit. the forces are then transmitted to the brain. the brain is very, very sensitive to this kind of physics, this kind of force. once the brain shakes, that is what a concution is, by the way, the brain literally physically shaking, once it shakes you get symptoms like headaches, gnash shaw. not thinking clearly. does the coach allow you to be on the sidelines long enough? the next concussion c
