Our new partner, 2nd.md provides second opinions from the world's best medical specialists by online video chat or by phone. With 2nd.md you can talk to world-renowned doctors for medical second opinions at a time when it is convenient for you.
2nd.md is currently offering us one free medical second opinion that is exclusive for Ben's Friends members. To take advantage of the free medical consultation, send an email to ■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■■ with your story and tell us why you need a second opinion.
From these email nominations, Ben's Friends team will draw two finalists randomly each month. 2nd.md will then choose the winner from these two finalists.
You can send in your entry emails as many months as you like, but send only ONCE per month. Once you're chosen, you will be asked to create 15-second video testimonial for 2nd.md

As I sit with my medical file on the desktop trying to figure out things in order to seek out a specialist in my network, I find this... even if I am not chosen, this is an amazing gift to someone in need of help. :-) Kudos to 2nd.md!
This is an Incredible Opportunity for every Ben's Friends Member. Many of us feel like we are left to survive on our own after treatment. Ben's Friends are always working to provide additional Services and Programs for Members. Even though we might not feel like we are lucky or fortunate because of our illness. We are very blessed to have found Ben's Friends and the CM Forum. I don't know where I would be without my CM & Ben's Friends Family.
I would love to have a second opinion. I have EDS type 1 and POTS I am currently in autonomic failure. My neck and head hurt all the time "pressure" and when I get the headaches my ears ache eyes back of my head/ neck and throat my voice usually becomes hoarse. I recently had a MRI of the brain would like a second opinion!
