Hello Prince,

I was wondering, can we add a Health Support Forum? This forum wouldn't be used to treat or diagnose IMers rather permit others to provide support and or share their experiences.

If you don't want to name it Health Support, how about a Support Forum?

Just a thought.

Thanks

This is a wonderful idea! I've had lots of things I've wanted to post, but didn't know where

Puh-lease Prince

I have avoided this type of forum because of liability issues mainly, I feel that we would need someone truley qualified that could moderate it. Someone with a professional background in health, preferably a medical doctor. There is one person on this board that is qualified, and I do not think she has the time for it.

I think she knows who she is, maybe she will respond here.

I would volunteer Craig, but he is so busy with school right now. This week he won't be home until 10pm.

Even if it's a support forum of any kind?

How does this moderator thing work? Like is there a turn around time for them to respond to posts?


Posted by: Prince

It just means that the moderator would be able to spend some time here daily and answer questions and correct any misinformation that might get posted.

If someone posted a question asking a health related question and was given incorrect advice by someone not qualified to give that advice I could be liable. This is much different than a training or diet forum, it's similar to the pregnancy forum that we discussed a while back.

Okay. I see.

So this moderator wouldn't need to be online 24/7 then.

I think adding this forum would be great and, the amount of traffic and members who would join, etc...would be super!

The reason why I'm asking for this forum is because a lot of things go on in our lives that's often nice to talk about and share with people who have experienced what we as men and women go through on a day by day basis. What makes this request even more special is not only because most of us have, "Been there Done that!" Rather because we're fitness people who have "Been there Done that!" and we can share and show support of how others have over come their obsticles in life, yet still have been able to compete, train &/or stay healthy.

Prince, in what ever decision you make you'll still have my respect. Thank you for taking the time to respond. I truly appreciate it.

I would agree to be a co-moderator if someone else qualified would spend some time as well. I enjoy answering heath/medical/chiropractic questions or at least pointing people in the right direction if I dont have the answer...plus it will give me practice for my practice...lol

What type of liability issues are you referring to? I am not sure of the legal ramifications of advice given in this type of setting. If you are, please let me know.

Posted by: JLB001

you can put it in your IM journal as cardio and abs


Posted by: DrChiro

hmm that gave me an idea....if we call it cardio/ab class instead of sex...can we do it everyday just like we go to the gym everyday...hmmm


Posted by: JLB001

Hmm....I don't think this is the type of "health and awarenss" Babsie was talking about.


Posted by: DrChiro
