I'm saying, there's serious grounds for suspicion here.

That's still handwaving.

Let's invoke Popper and ask for specific, testable, falsifiable statements. What exactly do you claim and want to test? What outcomes will prove you wrong? I don't think the details of how you came to formulate your hypothesis matter.

Should I take my thoughts to medical statisticians?

Will they listen to you?
