Just noticed members are just over 5000 I remember when I first joined was about 2300 , am hoping it's just that more people are finding the site and not that there have been 2700 diagnosed in the last two years

I hope more and more women are finding this site and feeling supported by the friendship circle here. When I think back to 2011 on joining there were relatively quite a small number of active contributors but it seems to have gone from strength to strength. xx

The ladies on this site haven given me such good advise and support in the last year, so glad I found it x
