Health web site

[Maith thu]

Hi

I was recently diagnosed with a potentially serious health problem. I would like to hear from people who've been through similar problems. Can anyone recommend a web site (preferably with an Irish bias, but I'm also interested in hearing from people in other countries)?

I would go the federation/foundation associated with your problem

i.e. National Cancer, Diabetes etc. federation, usually have links/forums

Another good source is to go American/UK versions of these as the both love to chat about their various conditions..
