If you are reading this, chances are you, or someone you love has been diagnosed with either a life altering or terminal illness.  I know what that feels like, because on October 8, 2002, I learned that my dear dad, Emery James “Jim” Sedlock had multiple myeloma (bone marrow plasma cancer).  To read our story in full, please go to Jim’s Story that tells how Low Dose Naltrexone (LDN) prescribed at 4.5 mg. nightly (which is an off label use of this drug, initially FDA approved at the 50 mg. level for narcotics addiction in 1984) literally saved our lives.  You will be inspired to learn more about LDN and how we are committed to raising money on behalf of clinical trials through the recently formed Emery James Sedlock Foundation. 

As for me, I spent years of my life suffering from Chronic Fatigue Syndrome.   LDN 4.5. mg nightly helped me regain my ability to live life to its fullest.  With my cognitive abilities restored, I could begin to focus on other health issues I had, in particular, weight gain that neither diet nor exercise would control. Over a ten (10) year period, I had gained almost 50 pounds (hardly eating), had trouble walking because of all the pains in my joints, and needed an afternoon nap to get through the day. I spent a small fortune going to a range of doctors, some who prescribed expensive supplements, which only made me sicker.

After ten years of suffering, I managed to lose most of the excess weight, the joint pain, and feel better now, at age 52 than I have ever felt in my lifetime.  What did I take to effectuate the change?  Another off label use of the drug, hCG. 

While it is perfectly ethical and legal for physicians in the United States to prescribe off label drugs for their patients, as the drug is compounded to a smaller dosage that the FDA approved for use, many physicians are hesitant to do so without empirical evidence.  The major pharmaceutical companies are not interested in conducting these studies, as there is no money to be made on a drug that is already FDA approved.   That is why it is so important that we the people raise private monies to fund these types of clinical trials.  Both LDN and hCG are inexpensive and highly effective for their respective uses.   We believe there are other compounded drugs that may well have possibilities, and we will examine those possibilities down the road.  Right now, LDN is our first priority.

We the people deserve to have as much knowledge as possible to make an informed choice regarding our healthcare options.  This web site is dedicated this premise, and having the authority to pursue that which we believe is in our health’s best interest.
