Guest guest Posted May 18, 2011 Report Share Posted May 18, 2011 Hi Tommy, If you listen to Dr Berkson's interview--he uses platelets, prothrombin time and something else I can't remember to assess liver damage. He explains his reasons why. It might save you $7,000 for a biopsy. If hubby cannot treat at this time--- better to spend |that money going to see Dr Berkson. Wait until you can get insurance to do biopsy. Hep C is SLOW MOVING and waiting won't make a difference since you have no money to treat. You may have as much info as you need on the lab tests hubby has already taken. Below is the link to the interview: http://www.prescrip tion2000. com/Interview- Transcripts/ 2010-01-22- burt-berkson- lipoic-acid- naltrexone- transcript. html SuziQ Quinn In the swamp in secluded recesses, a shy and hidden bird is warbling a song.
