I've seen a couple of threads about this where MN have said they're "interested" in what's being said but nothing ever comes of it. Posts get lost on the general health board and chronic pain / limited mobility doesn't come under "special needs".

Hi OP
Many thanks for raising this - we think it's a really good idea.
We open new topics once we're sure that they will be used.
We will keep an eye on this thread and if enough people show interest and would use the new topic, then we will discuss introducing it.

You're welcome to post it in the general health topic - flag it to us when it's busy and we'll take a look!

Hi there,
Just to say that we are not ignoring this and we are continuing to have discussions at MNHQ - but in the meantime please do keep posting here.

Morning, everyone.
We just wanted to pop in and reassure you again that we are still reading both this thread and the one started in General Health with interest.
We're sorry we haven't been able to just set a board up straight away but it very much isn't a 'no', more of a 'we need to see how it goes first'. We just need to be certain that a topic would be really well populated before we can commit to it, and the usual way we do that is by asking people to start threads and seeing how they take off.
The one in general health does seem to be being well used at the moment and we'd be glad to see that continue. Don't forget, you're very welcome to start other threads there, too, if there's a topic that needs it's own 'spin-off', if you like, from the main thread, such as seeking diagnosis, or a straightforward support thread. We understand that sometimes a very specific conversation about one aspect of a subject can derail a more general thread, and actually, the odd 'specific' thread working well would help show that there's enough support for a whole topic, too.
We hope that helps anyway. Please do let us know if you have any questions and we'll continue to keep watching those threads.
