    Yeah he says in the video 2019-2020. Why could I have not been born 5 years before I was. They will have CB and Bimatropost on the market in 5 years. Unfortunately I will be at least a nw5.

    As far as your progress through the scale, you might be surprised. I don't know where you're at now and how fast things have progressed up to this point for you, but I often find that people overestimate how fast it will progress. If there is a viable "cure" in 2020, we'll be the luckiest SOB's in the history of the world. I'm still skeptical that there will be anything significant by then, but nothing would make me happier than to be wrong about that.

    Actually, I find this really depressing. I remember when they were talking about 2016-2017. Back then even that seemed far away. Now it seems like they're doing three phase II trials? I'll be a chrome dome by the time this reaches the market. Just how long does it take to run trials for a product that is already FDA approved for lower doses?

    I hear you. My best understanding of the reason why there's different Phase II's is that the first one was using the same strength formula as is used in Latisse (the eyelash product). It had some effectiveness but not enough, so now they are using the strongest formula they can in the new Phase II, but they are also experimenting with different delivery vehicles, one in the current Phase II and another one in the next Phase II. I am assuming that with each pairing of formula and vehicle they need to test for both safety and efficacy.
