Hi GabaGirl,
Just wanted to take any opportunity to pay a compliment to the Remedyfind site. Such a noble effort to look into and rate anything feasible under the sun. And Brett Hodges is a great guy. He is very accessible and communicative and even forwarded me some great info by email (I shouldn't say that though -- the poor guy may be way too busy to do that on a regular basis).
I had been reading info and also posting some info about my own experiences there, then got sidetracked away from the site by some shiny objects and bells and whistles I must have seen somewhere else, as I often do. I have this Internet addiction that has me spending untold days or months on anything great that I stumble on and then I never get back to previous great ones. Even if I follow a "Resources" link from a site I adore, if I am also blown away by what I find at the link, I may be gone daddy gone. I began camping out at PB in a similar way, but have a running list of favorites to go back to; and another running list of new ones to try. Gives me a figurative headache and works against the usefulness of the whole "hobby." But oops, that's a subject for an addiction thread. Think it would fit under PB Substance Use????
Apologies, only wanted to second the motion on Remedyfind, and I am pretty 'dadburn' picky! : )

> Also, anyone check out http://remedyfind.com? I found it pretty cool and interesting. Nice to see meds and alt therapies rated by patients for a change in longer term clinical and personal practice as opposed to time limited clinical trials with no follow up. It was started by a guy, Brett Hodges, who is diaganosed with Chronic Fatigue Syndrome, but the site also covers depression, ADD, anxiety, and bipolar amongst other conditions. Nicely he includes links to clinical trials on different meds and supps when you look at them individually. I posted a few ratings for meds so far, but the verdict is still out on other treatments so maybe I'll post more later. Anyone look at this site? >
