    Do tell us which ones come cheap???

    The ones provided to subjects in legitimate clinical trials.

    Such as?? Your anser is very vague.

    Let's put it this way, visit the website which is listed upthread and take a
    look. See the dramatic difference with the fees involved.

    making. So IOW, you don't want anything except what is already endorsed by


    EOM.

    Wrong, and not the point. What Burzynski is doing is ensuring the fact that
    people do not participate in his trials, unless they can pay out of pocket.
    Health insurance does NOT cover experimental treatments, etc. He is not
    funded from NCCAM, etc. Thus it is the desperately ill terminal patient who
    has to cough up the bucks for the medical treatment.

    Quoted message said:

    Who decides which trials are legimate??

    See above. Do YOU think it is legitimate to charge people in this
    circumstance?

    Quoted message said:

    If you are aware of some cheap medical/clinical services, plese do post


    them.

    Many doctors do provide free medications (the ones dropped off by evil sales
    reps), and I know of several doctors who will perform surgery for free. In
    fact, one good friend of mine will perform surgery at no out of pocket
    charge, if the case is a challenge. His website, the last time I looked,
    says so. I would post the URL, or provide it to you in email, except that I
    do not trust you and you enabler. Your loss.

    Hmm. So only one potential drug in 10 in Phase III trials gets FDA
    approval? From being here for awhile, I got the impression that all a
    drug company had to do to get FDA approval was to twist some important
    arms, call in their chits, or slap some money down on the counter. I
    had no idea it was so hard to please the FDA.

    That's only what they want you to believe. Sure, the FDA keeps up apperantly
    high barriers to entry, but their real emphasis is on keeping unpatentable
    items from hitting the market and forcing pro-alt researchers to sell out their
    patents or end up like Rife.

    Read about it in Racketeering In Paranoia Land, by Jan Drew.

    I heard an advertisement on the radio this week looking for
    participants in a clinical trial. They were going to get free
    medication plus compensation.

    remember that Burzynski's "medical/clinical services" don't come
    cheap. Sell the house.

    Do tell us which ones come cheap???

    All properly run clinical trials are performed at no cost to the test
    subjects.

    Precisely. Any charges incurred by the use of the test drug or test
    device are not billed to the patient. Either the manufacturer or the
    government fund it.

    Quoted message said:

    Think of it this way, Burzynski is charging people to be ginuea pigs.

    Which is absolutely unconscionable.

    Agreed. Although his announcement for the trials sounds good, there are a
    few defects. I doubt he will be able to secure a sufficient number of test
    subjects.
