I'm not a doctor and I don't play one on TV. I work in medical transcription. Every chance I get I ask the docs what they think of HMSC. I always get a blank look from them because they have never heard of it. After I explain how it is supposed to work they laugh. Now, I am putting a stop on my short position because I'm still a reasonable person, and I guess I wish I had a long, position. But I have to ask, what kind of product is pushed on Good Morning AM and not through legitimate medical seminars. And then there is Geraldo. Where are the clinical tests on this thing. I am a lay person and I asked one of the docs how rare is it for a woman to have metastatic tissue in both breasts at the same time? He said, not that uncommon. Such a woman using Breastalert could easily give a false negative because the device measures temperature differential,i.e, the device thinks and anyone who is reading the graph, will see a baseline with no differential between the breasts, at least in early stage, and early stage is where BA is directed, er hyped. Well, the higher it goes, the fatter it will be.
