Abuse Of Site
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

Hi, this forum is very important and helpful for those suffering and needing advice. Recently I have noticed people abusing the forum and treating it as a dating site - giving out private email addresses and phone numbers to those that are vulnerable.

How Can The Veterans Of This Site Do More To Help The Newer Members To Get Answers To Their Questions?
A MyEpilepsyTeam Member asked a question 💭

As I have discussed with some of you, I try to send a greeting and add all new members to my team to help to get answers for them. However, there are a lot more of you have personal experience with implants like VNS, RNS, etc. and various brain surgeries, versions of the Keto diet, use of other alternative treatments and anticonvulsants and the like that I do not personally have.

How can we improve things for them even while we consider the meetings and the likes for some of us?
