Mrs. Glass Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 I was just wondering what web sights are best to get information . I have been to the Vanderbilt University Web site but it never changes. Of course it could be me. I used to be great on the computer now it seems like I can barely remember how to type anything in. It is very upsetting. So I wanted to take some control back in my life and do some research, but I dont know where to begin. Any suggestions. I can not spend a lot of time in front of the computer these days, it hurts my eyes and the screen gets distorted. But I figured if someone knew of Websites to go to that would save me some time in front of this screen. Thanks Vanessa Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
taylortotmom Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 On the Dinet main page there is a section called "Help yourself to answers to common questions". There are serveral links on there that are research related. Actually, it's on this page...scroll up and you can see it above the discussion part.Carmen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ianankatie Posted November 4, 2005 Report Share Posted November 4, 2005 I have done a lot of research simply by typing what I want into a search engine- it takes time but works and that way you have access to the whole world!! For example I reacently tried typing 'sodium fludrocortisone' on google to get info about the link between the two. you get loads to look through- keeps us busy!!Good luck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BuddyLeesWife Posted November 10, 2005 Report Share Posted November 10, 2005 I use the Medscape Search function ( www.medscape.com ). It requires a free registration but I have been using it for over a year and I have not received any advertisements or junk email from them. If you use the advanced search feature, you can sort the responses by date which means you can just see anything new that has been published on your topic and not have to sift through pages of old and obsolete material. The drawbacks are that most of the information is really technical as it is written for the health care profession and it is not specific to autonomic problems. I signed in as "other health care professional". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
