Agree. Actually, I know someone who was around when the Kreb Cycle was first defined and submitted for publication to Nature. They rejected it because ‘it wasn’t of general interest’.

For whatever reason, a relative who experienced severe heart problems as an infant, now shows less abnormality in her twenties. I am not close enough to possess detailed information describing the location or function that has improved, but the cardiologists are impressed. This improvement was unexpected.

Thank you. It is 4th stage follicular lymphoma that is in remission. Rituxan is an excellent chemotherapy drug that saved my life.

Dont take my medical advise. do your own research.
This may be better than pills. How should I know? Alsk the doc if you can quit pills after the surgery.
