Foreign treatment: I'd look at this kind of thing with skepticism. If it worked, I am certain it'd be studied, published and and hopefully offered in this country as well.

No, it doesn't: Am concerned with the uptick of news of a Chinese herbal treatment for this very devastating disease. You can certainly investigate and try to learn more, but there is NO mention of any effective treatment program in any of the world's legitimate medical journals at this time.
