New here and wondering where have I been???
« on: October 06, 2007, 12:13:04 am »
Hello Ladies! Just started checking out this site and I'm so glad to find a support for Poz women. Been poz 6 years and been on meds since I found out. I'm so thankful for the meds as they saved my life. Just had to change my regimen so I started getting info here and saw the forums. The change in meds hasn't been so pleasant but I will get used to it.  I look forward to reading and posting and hearing from all you great women. Have a great weekend!

Hey PA~

Welcome to the Forums!  Be sure to introduce yourself in the "By Way of Introduction" thread here in the Women's Forum whenever you're ready.

A group of us "regulars" post in the "Dating Threads."  Its our journal, where we share, vent, reach out and help each other.  I hope to see you there!

Hi Patti Ann

Glad you found the site and this forum. I'm on an e-diet right now.

I'm trying to watch my intake of forum calories because I found I log on too much (there's a tally of how much cumulative time you spend on the site and, well, I'm going to e-rehab if that gives you any indication of the hours spent here ::) )

I think my new mantra might be...May my behind never be a broad as the reach afforded me by the internet.

Have fun here---obviously, you've already found it to be a resource for medical information.

Em
