Not really for the forums, but don't know where to bring it up . . .
It sounds like a lot of us don't get good medical info. Some of us are even diagnosed in our charts but nobody says anything to us. I would like to recommend pamphlets so that doctors could hand them out with basic info and, more importantly, tell people to go the forums for support. I recognize it could be costly and difficult, but I think if you asked everyone here they would donate a few bucks to help others or if you put it online maybe those who could print would print them out and take them to their local hospitals. I think getting out the info would really help a lot of people - unfortunately many seem to find these wonderful forums and the helpful info on this site too late. I know that we all want to do everything we can to help others.
