what brought you all here?
How did everyone find their way to Medhelp? I came here because of heart palpatations. My journey took me from the heart disease forum (that was the only heart forum they had when I signed up), to the anxiety forum, to the dieting forum, to the gastroenterology forum and on and on and on. I probably spend too much time on here but I find out a lot of cool stuff and I enjoy seeing others' perspectives on things.
Was looking for info on withdrawals from "Effexor" meds.. and read some and decided I really wanted to join.

I found MH while searching for reasons of odd oral fixations in toddlers...my son went through a stage where he would seriously lick anything and everything. It was so disgusting. I was searching out answers as to why he wanted to lick everything (thinking maybe he might have a nutritional deficiency) and ways to break the habit.
Well, he didn't have a nutritional deficiency...he's just weird and still likes to lick things every now and then. Thank goodness he's past finding pleasure in licking doorknobs, tile floors, shopping cart handles, and dressing room mirrors. Now he's um, thankfully? limited himself to licking his clothing and chewing on his favorite green blanket.
Anyway, I've been addicted to MH ever since.

Last April I was told I had a mass on my ovary and being scared that I had ovarian cancer I googled for info and it brought me here. When the Ovarian Cyst forum started I moved to there and continue to support people on both the ovarian cancer and cyst sites. I love to cook so joined the healthy cooking forum. I am losing weight so the weight loss and dieting forum has been so helpful. I'm also struggling with my thyroid and find support there. I periodically migrate into other areas as things come up with my husband and son. I can't believe what a big part of my life MedHelp now is.
Crecco,
Oh thank you. He was a little miracle for sure. I just found this one (forum) too actually. One of my cyber-buddies tagged me to do the 5 things about yourself post. Anyway, take care of yourself.

Montie,
Thank you! I am doing great all things considered. I think I remember you coming to the forum. My treatments are going well.
I found this forum just a few days ago and thought it sounded great. A place to come and just kick back and have a good time.
Congratulations on the tumor being benign and even more so on the new baby!!
