JBM... I've heard through the grape vine that you're seeing improvement. Can you update on the kind of improvement youre seeing? I am thrilled for you - It was fabulous to hear you are improving!
Your doctor wasn't "misinformed" by a sciton sales rep. If you believe that, then you're kidding yourself. Obviously, he had to receive training on how to use the laser and, resultantly, had plenty of opportunity to ask questions and do his/her own research. And unless you were his/her very first laser patient, then he/she also should have gained some knowledge and perspective via experience over time. These doctors know EXACTLY what the risks are - They are consciously deciding not to inform patients because the laser companies and the FDA haven't "officially" acknowledged the many complications that HAVE occurred. Moreover, a doctor with any sense shouldn't depend on the knowledge-base of a "sales rep" on how to advise patients or on how to use a very sophisticated instrument (and if he/she does, then shame on them) - He/she should do their own independent research and seek out proper training by credible sources and experts in the field. You were outright lied to and not advised properly just like every other laser victim. He/she may have even bought the laser right off of eBay and not even interfaced with a sales rep from Scriton at all. ...Rationalizing something can only get you so far.
