Suggestion for List Improvement

I'm not sure who's maintaining this site, so I'll blast this suggestion
to everyone. I recommend adding a simple search capability to the
message archive, so that, for example, when the doc says he wants to
start me on the newly approved Zanaflex to replace the Baclofen, I can
search the archive for Zanaflex. The current 'sort by subject'
capability doesn't quite do it!

Also, I saw my neuro yesterday. He wants another MRI to verify that
things are stable. I hate those - I found out I was claustrophobic the
first time - had to abort the procedure. The second time I was
accompanied by an anasthesiologist who put me in the right frame of
mind. Good thing - because they had me in that damned tube for 2.5
hours! This time, it should be a short session, so I'm going to try it
with just Valium. Anyone have any fotter to add to this?

I mentioned this list to my neuro, and he is extermely interested in
joining. He didn't realize there was such a forum. How does the group in
general feel about docs peeking in? I have noticed a lot of doc-bashing.
Maybe it would be good for them (the docs) to see how real people
actually feel when they are not in the office!
