When handed a diagnosis, most of us wait to see what the 'established medical practitioners' have to say.

But what happens when they have nothing to offer? Or the insurance company nixes whatever treatments they recommend, or the funds for conventional treatment just aren't available? What if, as often happens, the conventional methods don't work?
