The advancements in medicine in the last 50 years is absolutely amazing. And it is advancing geometrically.
Without a doubt hsarge, and what I've seen over the last 30 years is unbelievable! I truly appreciate your insight.
Please don't take my statements as being counter to development and advancement - I'm 100% in. It's just that these advancements are made available to us after careful evaluation and studies. In general, the unproven, untested, experimental procedures are not made available to the general public by simply walking into a clinic, putting down money and getting it done. Studies are done by obtaining willing individuals who understand the risks in undergoing experimental tests or procedures, often they are paid for their efforts (not the one doing the procedure), and those individuals agree to long-term follow-up to determine the outcome of the test or procedure.
In this case, one must be willing to take the risks, pay up front and take their chances without much knowledge as to how successful it will be.
Caution and time hsarge... that's all I'm recommending.
