Burzynski - Whadd'ya think?

[SuperG]

Fascinating story, pretty poor filmmaking. Simple propaganda, long-form advertisement or real life conspiracy? Watch it if you want... or don't... whatever. Discuss it here.

Sounds like the doctor who sewed goat testicles into people.

Have a friend that is currently in his program.  Has made it through round one and is currently raising funds for the second.  Tumor was shrank 25% after 5 weeks of treatment.

These trials are obviously not covered by insureance.  He has filled bankrupcy and is living at home with his parents.  His only income is disability.

Hopefully this movie will help lower the cost of treatment!

I don't think this Polish doctor has any plans of running a sale.

There are some pretty miraculous stories in the movie. I'd like to see what a bill from this place looks like though. Maybe some publicity will lead to insurance coverage eventually.

Welp crap.  They are saying the treatment can't help my friend any further.  There is scar tissue left from his previous rounds of traditional chemotherapy and radiation. 

So I guess the FDA wins again.

Added this to my Netflix queue, looks pretty interesting.
