That's the argument my Neuro always makes to me. I just let him talk......I'm going to do what I know is best for me anyway. He doesn't have to live with the horrible side effects or the ridiculous cost. I'll tell him that when they can be honest about the success rate and the percentages for success go up (30% is not going to make me want to try it again) then maybe I'll think about it again.

Since they don't even know how the DMD's work that's about the only argument they have to try and keep people using them.
