I listened to it in spurts....it seemed like their treatment was somewhat broken up...and maybe not as comprehensive as most of us do?
What did you think?

stats and polls do not lie:

cure/remission rate is 9%.

with current treatments 91% of us will not get to remission.

again, what i said earlier. i am aiming for a draw ... gaining time and waiting for researchers to pull their act together...

i just looked what ppl responded.

i know it may be inaccurate but still, from ppl i saw coming here i'd say most, the vast majority still has symptoms even after years of treatment.
