I agree, being ill like this requires a perverse combination of enough hope to still try, but not so much you don’t get crushed if it doesn’t work.
I applaud those who try things in an effort to find the answer. Admirably, people in this forum seem willing to help each other and share information. Information these Drs. have been hoarding, to establish a competitive edge.

I believe helping each other will be the only way this overwhelming obstacle will be defeated. The failure of Drs. to share information is responsible for the lack of any significant treatment breakthroughs; and many unnecessary deaths to date. Doctors enjoy the spoils of being protected in a capitalist society, un-American! (They believe to their boots, they deserve unfair protection.) Thankfully, people exist that have the foresight to create things like this forum and the Whitmore-Peterson institute. Their insight, and other examples, is helping spur a new era in medicine. Hopefully uncooperative doctors won’t be able to hinder advancement much longer, momentum is building.
There is no excuse for not sharing significant findings anymore; only a lazy fool would wait for the next conference to share knowledge in the “NetMeeting” age. No travel time or expenses are required, and the advantages created by real-time sharing significantly speeds pyramiding information, generating quantum leaps in exponentially growing knowledge. Techniques engineers have been using for years; otherwise Pixar and its computer generated animation would not exist; for that matter, cell phones or computers would not exist as they are either. Chipmakers are a shining example of the benefits of competition, while doctors on average, exhibit the poor qualities of an industry that enjoys the unearned fruits of a protected market; too protected.
Many Drs. have pieces of this puzzle, unfortunately their greed, childish mentality and unwillingness to consider other concepts, keeps the puzzle from ever being assembled. Their shortcomings cause more people to die. In a just world, doctors would be held accountable for the suffering their greed and lack of cooperation causes. Doctors’ pettiness deserves significant press coverage. (If they won’t act for the good of others, perhaps shame would motivate them.) One must wonder how the average modern doctor personally justifies their level of conceit and arrogance; contrasted with how little they truly understand.
It appears the respect society has given these professionals still needs to be earned.

The problem is as it has always been, $'s for biomedical research which would eventually transfer into treatments.
