Hi. I totally agree with
the former but not necessarily
the latter of your assertions.
Put it this way: If you had posted about a particular drug or treatment you were using, and someone was aware of a recent study or official warning that clearly hadn't made its way to you, wouldn't you want to know about it?
And to those who say that this is a "support forum" on account of which information shouldn't be shared if it will cause anxiety, I'm sorry to have to disagree. Yes, we are all here to support each other, and anyone who doesn't feel that way had better give them-self a long look in the mirror. But sometimes, and only sometimes, being a friend requires that we say something knowing that it will likely be painful to hear.

PS And for what's it's worth, I suspect a good many of the people who know me would be surprised at how often I hold my tongue.
