Ok, I have edited some of my post. Don't know how to explain the reason, except to say that I learned today the info did NOT come directly from the doctor, but from people associated with the doc. These "people", who have no reason to tell this woman lies, fear losing their jobs for telling about the trial problems. This is scary. The other scary thing is that this woman who is having all the problems has been told they will no longer be following her in the trial anymore. Period. The end. Why or how can they exclude info on a person just because her case has not turned out well? I am 3 years out from my surgery and still being followed through the trial even though I did not have a happy ending.
