I obtained RXright.com to create a social network (Wiki) to advance medical treatments with real world examples and not just text-book/medical studies. I want people who are afflicted by various illnesses to write about the illness, treatment(s) and outcomes to create a database that is not hindered by corporate or political influence.
RXright.com will launch within the next month and everyone is invited to add to the cause. If you are interested in helping the project, I could use dedicated servers to run the site since I run over 100 domains and have projects in various states of operation.
I’ll be running MediaWiki, so the standardization of the process will be familiar to those who surf Wikipedia. The intent is to create stubs for each illness, and encourage those who have been treated for the illnesses to post what treatments they went through and the outcome. The treatments (by name) would obtain their own stubs and discussion would take place regarding the real-world efficacy of the treatment of those patients.
This is not a medical site, nor do I expect medical professionals to endorse, frequent, or add to the content, but I ask that they do so. This is not meant to be a slight to the medical profession, but I do believe that medical information is created by professionals for professionals and as such, there is a narrowing of the view of treatment and isolation of data from each other except through prepared journal articles which create a presentation of data and not necessarily the real world results.
