Welcome! This group has been set up to provide emotional support and information for the FAMILY, FRIENDS AND LOVED ONES of Behcet's patients. Group members are CARERS of BD patients, and this bulletin board recognizes that they have their own special needs within the Behcet's community. If you are a Behcet's PATIENT, please don't request membership here! -- sign up with a patient group instead (the most active one right now is at http://health.groups.yahoo.com/group/behcet-support )

Before you are added to the members' list of this support group, you will be asked privately about the BD patient in your life; I must receive a response to this email before I can add you to the group. This group is run by Joanne Zeis, a Behcet's patient and author of several books on Behcet's disease (http://www.bdbooks.info)
