Most likely Mexico because they'll do risky things with advanced cancer that the FDA prohibits

Too bad, I would rather see Advanced American medicine used experimentally......but for the lawsuits.

I think Steve McQueen was down in Mexico prior to his death for the same reasons--experimental cancer therapy.

“I would rather see Advanced American medicine used experimentally......”

Most of the cancer treatment centers in Mexico have been set up by Americans. Many MDs from the US are directly involved with these treatment centers/clinics. Many of these are reputable facilities using treatment modalities that work, at least for some people. They operate in Mexico because the AMA/FDA in this country sees fit to blacklist treatments that work.

Cancer research is a $100 billion industry in this country. Follow the money. If cancer is cured, what happens to this industry? "My doctor gave me six months to live but when I couldn't pay the bill, he gave me six months more." Walter Matthau.

“The physician should not treat the disease but the patient who is suffering from it.” Moses Maimonides (1135 - 1204). If only conventional medicine in this country today would follow this advice.

See my earlier Post #216 on this thread for other related comments.
