the marketing and acting like the marketing is the science. That's one of those things that I can say that regular people can't say because I'm a little more free. Was there a story I missed? Your eyes look high. My eyes look bloodshot. I'm tired. I've been working too hard. Working way too hard. No I'm not high but thanks for asking. Don Steele says nobody gives a about Scott's position on anyt…

I think the last time I priced it was $900 of Botox per treatment and I'd have to go back once a month times I don't know 50,000 people. So 50,000 people, $900 a month. And for that kind of money what happens when you do a Google search? It only says Botox. That's right.
So right now there are I would guess something like 30,000 people in the country who have the problem. And if they're lucky enough to know the name of the problem, which is actually hard to get because you just, if you think it could be one of 50 different things and you've never heard of spasmodic dysphonia so you don't even know what to look for. But if you're lucky enough to find the name you'll search for the cure and it won't be there. And then your doctor will say well let me look. The doctor can't find it either with different sources.
Think about that. The doctor can't find out there's a cure. Now most doctors don't deal with many of these because it's sufficiently rare that most doctors will never see one case, right? So it's spread around everywhere. So probably 30,000 people have a voice disorder which is very highly correlated with suicide. Do you know why this voice disorder is correlated with suicide or at least suicide ideation? Because you want to kill yourself the whole time. Your life is so bad when you can't talk. You can't have conversations. You can't get into relationships. Like if you're not already married good luck. And if you are married you're going to get divorced because you can't talk. The phone rings and you can't answer it. It's actually not worth living. I'll say it directly. When I didn't think there was a cure I did have a second option. Now I wouldn't have done it because I was married and had responsibilities and stuff so it wasn't an option for me because I had real world things to take care of. But I wanted to. I wanted to every day. I woke up every day and wanted to take my own life. And if you talk to other people who have this disorder they're going to tell you the same thing. They may not admit it to the people in their life because you know the same reason they need to stay alive. They may have people who depend on them. But they want to kill themselves. It's that bad.
So how bad is this situation? Do you believe that RFK Jr. is correct when he says generally speaking that the big pharma industry is not on your side? Because in this situation that's 30,000 people who wake up every day, don't know that they could be cured, and want to kill themselves.
Now if I were not talking to you live so you can actually hear my cured voice, see this is my scar if you're watching it on live stream, that's the surgery scar right there. This is real. And you can also check for yourself that the surgical cure does not show up on Google search. You can see for yourself. You can hear me.

You could talk to other people. You could talk to Dr. Gerald Berke, B-E-R-K-E. He'll pop up in the search. You could ask him is there really a cure? Yes. Have you cured many people? Yes. Has Scott done a publicity campaign so that people would know this cure is available? I have. In fact there was a People feature story about me just to highlight that there's a cure. Do you think that comes up if…
