MDJunction to me

Hazeldee"MDJunction means that I no longer have to feel like I am the only person in
the world with pericarditis. It means that I can talk to others who know
how stressful and how painful having pericarditis can be. It means that I
connect with others to discuss treatments that have or haven't worked for us, so that we have a leg to stand on. I think that having my friends at
MDJunction has allowed me to better mentally and emotionally process my
diagnosis and what it means to me. I feel so lucky to have this community
available to me. I use MDJunction as a way to use my experience to help
others. Reaching out to help others is the only solace I have found since
being diagnosed with pericarditis.

Welcome everybody,

As you suggested we made the main color burgundy. I think it looks nice !

I need your help on choosing the right image to represent the group (instead of the hugging couple). Joanna’s idea was to get an image that represents NDPH without making it too sad/depressing.

Bellow are 5 images I found in istock. Tell me what you like and I’ll buy it.

Looking forward to get your opinion,

roy

This is great that this is up and running. I'm running a little bit of a back log on the website guys the name to reserve it for 2 years and to get the private registration fee was like $18 which was fine I didn't realize then like Bill was saying that there is a hosting fee to get a server for the site and thats also a fee per month and Im very short on money because of all the doctor's visits. The headache did calm down though from the last time a posted so thats a plus. But I will get the site up and running eventually. However we finally have a Forum here. Thanks so much Roy and thank you too to Joanna for making the first step in this. I think the First Secon or the Last picture. The middle two look too much like migraine.

Awesome Smile Thanks so much Roy, this is so great to have this group up and running. I really appreciate it. My vote would probably be for the 1st picture.

Picture 1 or 3 are my picks. 2 is too busy, 4 looks like a migraine, and 5 looks more like a cold.

Roy,

I think it might be a good idea to have some articles under "NDPH articles" link so that people who come to this website can easily see if they have NDPH or another type of chronic dailiy headache. What do you think?

Here's a couple of links to start with:
