I first started using the Spine-Health web site over 5 years ago. I was looking for information regarding Thoracic disc problems. I had looked all over the internet, but Spine-Health was the only site that provided me information. From that point on, I used only Spine-Health to do research and to find more information regarding spinal problems. I have had 7 spinal surgeries, so having a site like this was outstanding. Then about 2 years ago, I saw an item in which people could start commenting on how their spinal problems impacted their sleeptime. I registered for the Patient Forums at Spine-Health and today it has become an every day stop and for periods of time. Getting to know other people who share some of the common medical problems is so very important. We may never see the people we 'chat' with , but there is a bond that is very strong. People care about each and honestly want to see the best of the other person. The forums on this site provide one of the best support groups I have ever been associated with. People dont judge one another. So many times, members on this site reach out to other members, because they feel that they have become a burden on their own family. It is great to have a family support system, but at times, you want to talk to someone who knows exactly what you are talking about. I have learned so much in the past two years from being on this site. The technical information is growing, and as I said, its a one stop shopping. You can review medical articles, watch videos about conditions and treatments and so much more. I am very thankful for Spine-Health, not only has it provided me with information to augment what my doctors have told me, but also allowed me to become 'friends' with so many other people.
