A community for chronically ill people.
Rules
- Be excellent to each other
- Absolutely no ableism, although good faith questions that take an ableist stance will be left up pending moderator discretion.
- No quackery. Does an up-to date major review in a big journal or a major government guideline come to the conclusion you’re claiming is fact? No? Then don’t claim it’s fact. This applies to potential treatments and disease mechanisms.
