I'm not able to fully understand some pharmocologic explanations of medication issues, but often 'get the gist of them', which is very helpful. Wonder I'd feel unwelcome on an 'advanced' board.
Med discussions in layman's terms on a 'new to meds' board would also helpful, but I'd not want to feel as if I should only post there.
It should be acceptable to post or followup on the 'advanced' board if we feel our medication issues aren't addressed on the 'new to meds' board.
I would hope those w/ advanced knowledge of pharmcology don't wish to carry on private discussions amongst themselves which may intimidate those w/ lesser knowledge from joining and benefiting from their posts.
imo, 5f
