Pawz4me Posted July 17, 2013 Share Posted July 17, 2013 It certainly sounds promising. But there have been so many potential cancer cures/treatments that have sounded so promising over the years that it seems best to take a wait-and-see approach rather than getting all excited about it before widespread human testing is done.

However, it is a new option for those who have run out of options! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
