After speaking with DJ, I have decided that I would like to write a new medical information section for this board. I see a lot of the same excellent questions pop up on this board numerous times, as there is no easy way to reference previous information.
I am thinking of making it into 2 parts. One part for all the board users answering questions like "why does oxygen work", "What does Imitrex do", "How many doses of imitrex are safe", etc.
In the second section, I would like to provide information for medical professionals. Something you could print out and give to the doctors that are sceptical of using a certain treatment. Topics such as "the use of Oxygen in the treatment of clusters", and "Imitrex and clusters", etc. I would write this not for the layperson, but with the normal physician mumbojumbo, and affix the necessary references. Short and concise, it would be something to hand them and say "here, this is what I would like you to consider."
I would like as many ideas as y'all can think of for topics. Please email me questions that you would like to see answered. I have kind of a busy schedule, but I would like to try and get started and slowly crank through them.
Thanks for your help...and feel free to let me know what you think of this idea. If everyone thinks this would be a waste of time...please let me know that too.
