Feel free to throw rotten tomatoes (although jaffa cakes would be prefered :D ) but on reading the forum tonight an idea literally did a :idea: in my mind.

I have a terrible memory and being new to the forum I'm still trying to get people straight in my mind :oops: . I thought it would help the likes of me and other new members if we had some idea of where people are in their treatment/management of their KC. It would help in both replying to posts and in reading replies to know where members are 'coming from'.

Could this info be put in people's sigs perhaps? Typical of me to think of something and not think through how to carry it out. :oops:

Sensible idea,

Would have to somethnig voluntary where we add the info to our profile so somone can click on a user profile and get basic information;

Where you from
Hospital you use
Lens fitter
Stage of treatment
Hobbies/interests

Yes, that is a good idea.

I'll add some fields to the profile after the next major update (slated for late summer). For now, we can use the existing fields, and "interests" for the medical stuff.

Glad you don't think it's totally daft. :D

So when can I expect the jaffa cakes then? :P
