Julia SchopickAs many of you know, Dr. Bernard Bihari was the genius who discovered that a very low dose of naltrexone, a drug that had been approved at a higher dose by the FDA for another purpose entirely, could help people with some of the most difficult-to-treat diseases.
Julia SchopickIn September of 1990, my then-40-year-old husband Tim was diagnosed with a cancerous brain tumor the size of an orange. His doctors “gave him” 18 months to 3 years to live. Tim and I were struck by paralyzing fear. We followed doctors’ orders to a tee. Tim underwent the standard-of-care treatment: surgery, chemo and radiation. Nothing more.
Julia SchopickDuring the time when my husband Tim was ill (as I described in my first posting on this website, I began using the internet to find treatments for Tim that our doctors hadn’t told us about. Of course, my research became more intense each time Tim’s situation became more critical. But almost without being aware of it, I was honing my skills as a researcher. (At some point, I will post an article on this website about how to best use the Internet for medical research.)
