You may remember my links to and my friendship with Helen Knox, who runs the Global Cyber Clinic website at http://www.globalcyberclinic.com. I used to send loads of people there because of the major questions they needed to have answered about sexual health matters.

Recently that has become a pay site, and the clinic traffic there has all but died. Which means loads of people are simply not getting answers.

I have the "site horsepower" to create a clinic here, in a different messageboard. The problem is I have no qualified medics that I know of to advise properly and professionally on sexual health matters. NOTE: No-one is talking about remote prescription, nor remote diagnosis. The most common answer will be "Make an appointment with your doctor if you are worried", or "this sounds normal, but do still check with the medic if you are still worried".

The question is, do we have any real medics here? or nurses? or people with sexual health outreach experience?

I'm damned sad that Helen has gone to a pay route. I wish she hadn't. Her site was unique and valuable. OK, she does have a living to earn, but.........

Mind you I have no idea how a comment about this could be controversial.

i kind of am... i am not a "medic," but i've taken anatomy and health classes (both of which touch sexual aspects) up the wazoo, and am still taking more. before the phlebotomy turn, i was going to be an EMT.

i'd be willing to help, if needed.



my void does not want.
