Yes, anyone can. Just please make sure we don't already have a group like it.

Just click 'groups', then click 'add' at the right top of page.

When you start a group, you become group leader. You can turn on notifications so that you will know when new members join! :)

Hi SK, thanks I was thinking of starting one on " Essential Tremor" I checked and didn’t see a group for it, but would you mind double checking me?  
Hugs, Leanne

Hi Leanne,

I'm glad you asked this question because I didn't know the answer, so now I do. And each group helps other people because you know you're not the only one with that symptom. So you'll actually be helping other people out too, especially those too shy to write and ask.

Good luck with your new group,

Petunia

So sorry to hear you have this, Leanne, it was also a concern I had at one time, turns out the tremors I was having was a side effect of the Savella, I stopped the med and had no further problems, but it was a big scare for me! I hope that you can get some relief from this.

I did not see any groups for this either, glad you are beginning this, it is a very good idea.

Wishing you well,

SK
