Could the society consider developing a section of the site dedicated to giving members quick access to ‘best practice’ guidance on important & recurrent issues?

For sure, this disease is somewhat unpredictable in its development and, to add to the complexity, we as patients bring our own unique, individual, biology into the mix. I therefore totally accept that we cannot hope to create one faultless ‘best practice’ catalogue that would become the perfect solution for all issues for all sufferers. However there must surely be sufficient sound experience and consensus available for publication on our site (in a quick access format).

To ‘qualify’ for inclusion, the potential entries would ideally be vetted by an expert panel before publication.

Some examples of the many recurrent themes on the forum:
- Finger stretching/bending in the early stages (before formal treatment) – helpful or damaging?
- Diet and disease progression – vegetarian advantage?
- Alcohol consumption and disease progression – zero intake, moderate only, no significant effect?
- Physical stress to the hands at work or play – stop the activity, moderate or no significant effect?

Might this be a useful refinement to an already excellent site?

The new forum 'search' facility - launched today - is excellent & goes a long way to address my concern that many valuable inputs were getting ‘buried’ and were difficult to track & bundle together with similar ideas & experiences.

Great job - thanks !!!
