Okay...looks like it is between the 2 of us. My wife is the one with the als diagnosis. I've communicated with the Tiantan Puhua Hospital in Beijing and sent them info today. I have been in contact with the spouse of one patient from Australia (who was a patient there) and she said that there was some improvement after 2 treatments (her husband passed away after the second and she attributed it to family stress)....She said she would definitely do it again. I haven't communicated with anyone else who has been a patient, but would need to before I committed to this...so my first question is....Have you communicated with anyone who has gone there for treatment and can relate first hand knowledge of any change (positive or negative)? By any chance have you visited the hospital? How did you communicate with the hospital? How did you make arrangements? How long will the treatments take and do you know the dosage? Lastly, how did you negotiate the costs of the treatments?
