More about me (my health interests and reasons for joining WEGO Health)
Her friends call her Melissa Freakin' Martin, but plain old Melissa makes an easier mouthful. This twentysomething Canadian is a music journalist by profession, a rock diva at heart and a closet nerd in spirit. She lives by the mantras of Mr. Bill Hicks and Mr. Tommy C. Douglas, speaks before spoken to, and dreams of a day when all women are empowered to love, enjoy and understand their bodies.

Insert from new book... I have no patience left. My body hurts everywhere and I am nauseous. Tonight I give myself another shot of Interferon alfa-2A for my Hepatitis C. Please stop being so argumentative with me. I think to myself I’m your mom and I’m sick, just listen for once. Did I really yell that loud, she is only nine? Oh gosh, that’s horrible, I feel terrible… we both cry.
I am writing a new book. I have the literary agent who will represent me.
This new book will help no matter women no matter what age we are. It is a genuine self-help book based on research and the experiences of numerous women. It will be a fantastic venue to educate women. My story will be the driving force but more than motivation I want to provide the kind of balanced information and help every woman needs.
WOMEN I need YOUR HELP.
Have you or someone you know been given the wrong prescription from a pharmacy?
Did you take it?
Have you or someone you know been sent home from the emergency room and later found out your symptoms were real - as mine were. Sent home with a prescription for Nexium, when in fact my left descending artery was 75% blocked and needed intervention.
Or given a prescription for a sleepaid and pharmacy gave me a prescription for Altzimers.
Please drop me a note with this information:
Person's name I can contact

Hi Mellissa,
Welcome to WEGO Health! I hopped over to VP a few weeks ago when I saw it come across my desk and like Paula I was hooked and time just flew by. The discussions are amazing and so informational. It's really a great site!
Thanks so much for sharing your thoughts and your story. I enjoyed your Spotlight Interview very much.
