I think it would be helpful if we put where we're from in either our posts or our signatures so that respondents can serve you better, as well as where you're being treated. Thanks.

There is a place to put that information in your profile. May people don't - You need not be specific here. I list mine as South Eastern Michigan. That usually encompasses usually Downriver, Detroit and as far out as northwest of Ann Arbor, Brighton etc. Where I actually am is really somewhere between Lansing and Detroit, but its easier to say SE Michigan. Here we have several fine hospitals including the University Of Michigan's.

Thanks Man...its just that sometimes I wanna chime in on someone's request for info, only to get the jist that they aren't even in this country, and I wouldn't want to point them in the wrong direction.
