Welcome to CumulusMedical.com. We are glad you are here... you've discovered a site that has been created and designed to help you and your loved ones achieve a healthy lifestyle. Here you will find resources to assist you in developing a way of living that can add significantly to your well being. In addition to medical information and case histories, we have created a discussion forum where you can interact with others who share your health objectives, diagnostic issues, and treatment concerns. The group that initiated this site includes three individuals who were very concerned, at one point in their lives, that they might not see tomorrow. The problems which we encountered in diagnosing and finding effective treatments for our health issues brought us together and led to the creation of CumulusMedical. The focus of our website is to be a valuable tool, a gateway to the best health of your life. Here, you'll discover information not only on healthy living suggestions and medical resources, but also on diagnostic information, treatment alternatives, and a discussion forum where you can interact with individuals who have gone through similar experiences. I am one of that group of three who had a serious medical condition. We have come together to share our experiences with anyone who may be in a place where hope seems to be vanishing quickly. We know how you feel. Our team includes two individuals who have run many marathons, climbed mountains, gone diving in exotic locales, and today continue to live life to its fullest. Our third member, at 40 years young, was a world ranked multi-sport athlete. Despite our apparent vitality, we all encountered life-threatening medical conditions and had to contend with conflicting medical advice and diverse treatment recommendations. We know firsthand the importance of having our personal medical records readily available electronically and of having the ability to discuss our conditions with others who have had similar medical issues. The access to information, particularly with respect to evaluations and treatments which others had found to be successful, was critical to our own recovery. Who are we? We are you and your loved ones and your family. We have had serious personal health concerns, we have cared for our elderly parents, and we will try our best to provide a useful medical resource for you. Please register with us! At CumulusMedical you will be able to create a Personal Health Record (PHR) for you and yours. You may ask, "Why should I do this?" You will never know when this information, securely accessed over the Internet, may save your life. Even if it's only your basic information (contact information, blood type and allergies), it can be most valuable to a doctor in an emergency. Be assured that your information is secure and that if you ever really need it, it will be there. This is important -- please register and do it now. Google Health or Microsoft Health Vault Take advantage of the CumulusMedical Forum. Worrying about health issues can be a lonely place when there don't seem to be any solutions. It has been shown that when we discover someone else has experienced what we are going through and we have an opportunity to discuss our common problem and potential solutions, we can move forward... no longer alone. Our forum is a good place to share your concerns with others and perhaps find some hope or motivation. Talking things over with someone who has gone through a similar experience can be very powerful. There is, however, NO substitute for seeing your Doctor. Find a Doctor Here While alternative advice or opinions may be of interest, if you think something is wrong with you, if you think you need to see your Doctor, please don't wait. I'll repeat, there is absolutely no substitute for seeing your Doctor. The best thing you can do if you think something is wrong is to get an appointment with your Doctor or go to the emergency room... Now! Please don't be more afraid of the solution than the problem! For your health accessories, please support CumulusMedical by purchasing items from our affiliates. We have brought together many vendors that you can reach through our site. They will provide the tools you may need to provide care, support your dreams, amuse and entertain yourself, or get that gift for a loved one that supports a healthy lifestyle. We have used all of these vendors and are pleased to be associated with them. Finally, let us know how we can better serve you. How does the site work for you? Please tell us! We know you've heard that before. We mean it. One thing we know: while we have seen how our experience can be of benefit, we know that more will be revealed through interaction with those who are now going through what we went through. This is your site...share it with others ...let's create a healthy community together. Thanks for visiting us at CumulusMedical.com. To the Best Health of Your Life,
