I've read several times on this blog that people paid the $700 but I'm not seeing where anyone has gotten the shot and reported back that they have seen improvement.

I know we are desperate to find out if this is snake oil or if it could help at all.

I paid the $700 for the consult for my husband and they sent me an email with an attached scrip for a TB shot- but we haven't scheduled the trip yet. PLEASE somebody let me know if this is a scan. During the consult I was informed that the
price has gone up to $6800.00 - huge jump. Trust me like everyone else who is considering having the shot - this would be a miracle.

I called my family doctor and he looked into this and felt that it sounded good but for him to have the training would cost him $15,000.00 and then every patient he gives the shot he would have to pay a royalty fee.


Also, I found another website where they talk about Tobinick's procedure and you can get a video of how its done.

Looking for some updated information.

I think 60 Minutes should do a follow-up report on this.
