I wish I thought this were a good idea. Successful sites I have participated in started with being aimed at a particular diagnosis. I wish I thought this would work because it is clear to me that different diagnoses with symptoms in common often have related underlying causes. Unfortunately, this looks too nebulous to me. I hope I am wrong and I am routinely accused of erring in the opposite direction and making sites that are "too niche." But that's what it looks like to me.

PS Arguing with people who have given you feedback is not a great idea. It is a super common thing, but it really isn't a great idea.

Best of luck.

Hey Thanks for checking us out :)

At the risk of arguing with you, I am surprised you thought we argued in the previous comment reply. We thought SHOwnsYou was quite thoughtful in his feedback and had gone through the app. And the response was meant to be thoughtful as well. We genuinely found it useful and tried to emote that.

Just read it again and it still didn't read as argumentative.

I am not sure what the line in the sand is, just say 'thank you' I guess. :)

Thank you.

And I didn't say you had argued with anyone. I just get tired of trying to help people and getting fighty replies. I deleted my response to someone else over that very recently.

Fwiw: I worked for an insurance company for over 5 years, ran an alternative health site for a number of years which is being discontinued, and have participated in various health sites over the years. I really hope you have success with this. I just know it to be a tough space.

Peace.

PS I will add that it also goes over well on HN to upvote people if you appreciate the reply. That seems to frequently get overlooked, though I try to do it.

Dude, we need to talk! How can we make this happen?

[NovemberWest]

It's actually dudette. You can email me if you wish. But please do note I am discontinuing my health site and bitter about the experience. So I am not exactly an example of wild success.

Peace.

Oops, sorry!

Just dropped you a line. Thanks.
