Good Morning Perry, As soon as I can figure out why a young PWP friend of mine has to pay twenty five hundred dollars a month for her PD, Diabetic and CD medications, all medically and FDA approved, I might be able to tell you why Alternative medicine costs so much. IMOHO, I think there is room enough in this world for alternative medicines as well as RX drugs. The thing which made me go into orbit, make spins and turn left before I came down again, was that when things are posted to this list by persons who have MD behind their name,a lot of PWP take it as gospel and will not try something which could help them. just me, Marjorie Who will spend the day chasing behind the Medical Profession hunting for the results of my husbands Thallium Stress Test so he can get his cataract/lens implant operation on Monday. He is truly blind in one eye and can't see out of the other!!
