Why did patients apply to this trial?

Ho Provato numerosi farmaci. Molti non sono disponibili in Italia e non esiste uno studio specifico per questo problema. Mi ero candidato a una sperimentazione con magnetoterapia transcranica solo che non mi hanno piu chiamato, e in quelle cliniche dove la praticano,hanno costi che non posso permettermi. Questo e tutto..... Saluti.
