[Fwd: [PLS-FRIENDS] Stem cell therapy: con job or cure?]

[Guest guest]

FYI - from someone on another group I am on.

Recently there has been much discussion about the use of stem cell

therapy to treat HSP and/or PLS. The physician involved is Dr.

C. Rader – a psychiatrist.

I have been hesitant to post anything regarding either this

psychiatrist or his treatment. Based on past experience, I have

learned to let people experiment with " alternative treatments "

without giving my opinion. But when I learned how much Dr. Rader is

charging I had to say something.

For those who are completely committed to this person and his ideas,

please read no further.

I found the following web sites had useful information about this

psychiatrist:

If I prevent even one person from being duped by this crook it will

be worth the anticipated grief I will get from others for doing so.
