| Description | Allergylikeme will allow allergy sufferers, families, and health professionals to share allergy information (food, medication, environmental). Sharing of advice, safe products and producers/manufacturers, safe businesses (i.e. local restaurants, grocery stores with map interface), stories. New, because no acceptable resource exists. Interesting, because it's a matter of life or death for some people and families (like my son). Different, because it's easy to be different from 'nothing'. Believe me, I researched heavily (and with motivation) following my son's anaphylactic shock in July 2010. I understand this field and its users because I am a user, plus I have background in the medical research field. |
