Head Trauma after car accident
Hi, my brother was hit by a car 3 days ago. They have done numerous CT scans and each time have confirmed more bleeding on the brain. He is very unresponsive but is not in a coma or having help with breathing. The whole family are worried sick. Drs just seem to keep observing and not doing much else.

Brain fog or something more serious?
I am really struggling with short term memory at the moment. I cannot remember what I have just seen or heard without really concentrating. I switch off very quickly. My husband has to repeat himself a lot. Name memory is dreadful, facial recognition is worsening. I know it may be my overwhelmed body

A Dog at my House
This is a story for dog lovers, but cat lovers can share it too as many cats are also dumped. I live in the country with no houses within sight so when a dog showed up at my house, I knew someone had dumped it there. Last Saturday morning Jan 7 - the temp in central IL was zero degrees - the dog on

Palliative Care
At what stage should you initiate palliative care for someone who has stage 4 cirrhosis (end-stage)? Does the GP need to refer them for palliative care or can this be initiated yourself? Am struggling with what to do for the best for my husband - currently OK but has had hematemesis recently and was

Anxiety Meds
It's been a while. I have been off of this site simply because I forgot my password. Haha! Anyway, last October I decided to go to a psychiatrist for a proper treatment of anxiety. And so he gave me meds, paroxetine and bromazepam. It worked like miracle for me. Most of the symptom is gone. But this

Bedwetting - 10 year old

He has been on desmopressin since the beginning of 2015, having various breaks to see if he is over the bedwetting. We are on a break at the moment, into week 3 and he is bedwetting every 2nd night. My gp assures

Hurray, the 'Silly Season' is over!!
While I am melting away here in the scorching heat of central Australia I thought I write another blog about something that goes through my head every Christmas time. I would love to hear thoughts about it. Now that the 'Silly Season' is finally over life starts to become almost normal again. Friends

CT pulmonary Angiogram Tomorrow
Has anybody had this done before? I'm a bit nervous as I've never had a dye injection before and not sure what to expect. Having the scan as Rhuemy suspects narrowing or clotting in my arteries, does anyone know how long it will take for results either? Thank you x

Still feeling anxious and depressed
Hey everyone. I'm writing here again because ever since the New Year, my anxiety and depression has gotten worse. Granted it's the not first time I've had a bit of nervousness at the New Year but after such a big and progressive year like 2016, going to 2017 seems not only surprising but also frightening
