May I ask how people found the site, then, if it wasn't through search engines? I know I found it when I came up with posts while searching for medication info.

I recognize the desire to remain anonymous is of vital importance to some, but this site is not invitation-only - it is a public forum, so everyone who is concerned about others finding out their personal info should be cautious about what they post.

...or come up with a user name that doesn't have the least bit to do with them or their occupation or their lives. If I had it to do over, I might use "Violinist" because NObody would ever associate me with that!

Good advice, Penny!
