Its a great support system and I would like to extend my thanks to all on the forum including the doctors who make it interesting, often humourous given some of the responses and meaningful.

Cindy,

Thanks for your post, and reminding us to stay calm!  Hope you and your staff as well as the people who post on this board will have a Happy Holiday Season.

Some of us are in the same boat, and some of us think and feel different.  What is "pure hell" for one person may be "nothing" to another.  Lets help each other and lets try to understand the other persons who don't feel like we do.

Happy Holidays and a Great New Year to Cindy Medhelp, CCF staff and Doctors and Everyone on the forum.

I am confused.  Isn't this forum suppose to provide opportunities for individuals with varying opinions and experiences to post their perceptions and personal experience?  Or, is it a place where only those who agree with each other can post?  We all need to be open to other ways of looking at problems.  If we all agreed, we would never advance in our knowledge and function.

[Barbarella]

We don't have to agree with each other, and we are entitled to have our own opinions and experiences but WITHOUT CRITICIZING other people i.e. if somebody is concerned/afraid of a condition and somebody else is belittling/critizing that person for his/her concern.  Like I said in my post above what is pure hell to one person might be absolutely nothing to another.  I might be afraid of things other people are not and vise versa.  But I don't criticize these people for their concern about their condition should I not understand their concern.  Each person is different, some worry more, some worry less.  That is why there are boards like this one so people can find out if there are others like them, what experiences they had/have, what helped them etc. but not to criticize people about their illness/symptoms whether its organic or psycho psymatic.

That was very well put.
