Well the reality is medicine moves slowly because it has to. You can't just start injecting people with stuff until it's been properly tested and of course the money tends to go towards the most common illnesses. As my illness is really not that common it receive no media attention and very little funding outside of some PhD student doing a thesis.
I love science so I won't hear criticism of it :P It's hard to be even minded with such things but you have to stand back sometimes and look at the reality. Once they are done with cancer, replacing organs, HIV, heart disease etc then I'm sure they'll get around to my condition
