Canadian Purchasing Help Needed

    Hello I need to purchase something that is only sold and shipped to an address in Canada, it costs $250.00 I am happy to PayPal someone money and then give them $50 extra for their time and effort. I then can create a label and have it shipped to me...
    This is a serious healthcare item and the USA has not approved it's use. It is experimental, but I don't care...
    Let me know if any Canadian's might be inclined to help..... Thanks

    Are you talking about medecine ?
    Might be hard to find someone willing to do such thing.
     
  3. How quick can you get it delivered or is it stocked at pharmacies? I’ll be there tonight and back in the US Wednesday am. PM me what it actually is and not to say I’ll take your word for it but I’ll check before I either ship it or bring it across the border and ship it. If it can be shipped from Canada after being shipped to an address in Canada I’m sure one of my buddies could take care of that.
    Lots of medications, even though experimental in the US can be brought over 100% legally without a prescription, but as stated above I’ll make sure of that first before I do anything.

    Thats an interesting concept. I didn’t see documentation on how much the ICP is elevated.

  7. Ok so I doubt it can be there in time for me to bring it across and ship it from the us (much easier). Let me see what I can do for you.

    I have not see documentation either, but I have seen at least one NFL player wearing it, so I figured for the why not

    I can definitely help someone want to protect his/her brain.
    I should be going down before the Holiday season to ship stuff to the USA (and collect) and could help in that matter.
    I live in Quebec, J3N-1C4, if that helps.
    Just can't garantie which day I will be heading down but need to make it before the 23rd.

    Cheers

    So, increasing Intracranial pressure protects the brain from injury? And what about increased bleeds, etc? So it uses juggler/neck compression to accomplish this task? By how much? I'm skeptical. Oh wait, an NFL player is using one? I'm sure he/she's doing it for free? Maybe it works, good luck

    I see no references on the website to any NFL player using this, I do see some CFL and Canadian college player references. There is also a lot of weasel words, “could reduce” and “may reduce”.

    spoon32 Huh???

    I'm all for concussion prevention but I think there are some pretty simple fluid dynamic principles that would explain why this won't work as intended.
