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.
I came in May 2007 trying to find some answers. I was told I had a blighted (sp) ovum pregnancy. Lone behold they were wrong my daughter is now 8 months old. I love the community; they got me through many tough moments.
Found MH doing a search regarding heart problems (PVCs, cardiomyopathy, mitral regurgitation). Like Happy said, there was only one heart forum back then (actually an expert forum) and it has grown leaps and bounds since then. I still love it here!
In Oct 2006 @ a routine annual exam, my Dr. found 2 thyroid nodules .. I had to have a FNA Biopsy done .. not only did I not know what a nodule or FNA Biopsy was, I didn't even know where the thyroid was or what it did in the body!
The members at MedHelp taught me all I know today and have helped me go from diagnosis, thru surgery, thru med adjustments, thru acceptance and healing 100% and this has allowed me to help others.
Many of the original members who helped me in 2006 are still on the thyroid community helping so many people.
That is special stuff.

I don't even remember how I got here. It was actually 6 years ago. Probably just a link to a link to a link landed me here.
The site was very different back then. Just a few forums, and plain old questions and answers.

After giving birth to my youngest daughter things were a bit "strange" and I came here seeking answers about my body! I landed in the Pregnancy Community and was asked to be a CL a few months ago. My username says I've been here since Jan (I think) but I've been here longer under a different username. I changed it so it was more easily recognizable.
Phew... probably TMI but... who cares?

A friend told me about MedHelp. I liked the animal forums, they have good advise there.
