This is not a question.

I wanted to take a moment to remind everyone that on this site and any site there are not good people. People who will Give you false hope n false medical advice. They will pretend to be people they are not.
Please do your own research. Weather they post a great sounding theory or send a link. There is a lot of fake stuff online. We all need to remember to do our own research. We need to do what is medically necessary for ourselves.

I just wanted to remind all my… read more

Absolutely!!!! Thank u for this post!!! I already have been on guard. Didn't want to actually accuse anyone but I have had some advice that's made me wonder and I've only been on the site a couple of weeks. I always do my own research and though I appreciate any information others have gained I'd never just take it and run with it and I hope everyone else would be the same way!! Even with what your doctors tell you. Research!

Well, just to drizzle a little chocolate over this piece of kale, I felt the site was for (other than support) opinions, potential possibilities, experiences, research directions, etc. Which is awesome, and I wouldn't want anyone to be afraid to share or have to write disclaimers in front of everything. But i say that because my experience has always been above board and helpful. That being said, if there are people on this site who are trying to sell us some miracle crap, you should be ashamed of yourself. I'm not referring to miracle crap that actually worked for you and you're just trying to be helpful. I mean those whose intent is, what is called "friendly fraud" and it's illegal.

You better hope someone here doesn't report you. 😡

PS to my fibro buddies. Anything I ever say is strictly to present another avenue to pursue. If anyone thought I was trying to push anything at you, I truly apologize. 😳😧😮😭

So true...always trust no one but yourself. You have to do research before you make any informed decisions in life-if health or home of anything -trust your gut..everyone tries to give you opinions -keep in mind what works for one person may not work for you..been there done that.Wish you all the best and keep well..live love n laugh and the best is yet to come...gentle hugs...

Your "heads up" was very good advice. It's always good to do research on your own. The fact that people reach out to help someone else is good medicine for the giver and the receiver! Gentle hugs, Barb
