Feeling very hopeless
Has anyone had any successful experience with anti-depressants and
chronic
pain
? Because I unfortunately haven't, but after trying them every few years and having bad experiences, I get desperate enough to try them again.

ALCALABRUTINIB FAILING
Why are clinical trials our only option for the most part, why does our treatments cause more mutations and a cancer that is harder to treat, at some point, our cancer will outpace our options, and we will have none. We must be very intelligent on our line of treatments and make sure each we choose wisely

Slow growing embryo miscarriage
I was wondering if anyone has had a miscarriage with a slow growing embryo? Initially my HCGs were strong and going well. Had a bit of dark brown discharge so went to the EPU at 5 weeks. Sac visible but that was all. At 6 weeks I was told I had a blighted ovum then 2 days later a fetal pole was visible

Confused newbie
Firstly I was diagnosed with depression and anxiety when I was 18 (I'm now 44) and I've had
chronic
back
pain
for the last 12 years caused by degenerative disc disease and facet joint syndrome. I've mentioned this as I feel some of the symptoms cross over.

Preliminary research, though, does suggest that OGM can enhance cytogenomic

Nervous wreck
don't know where to turn ,. I am worrying myself silly can't relax ,and as a result I am getting more migrain aura's. It's a vicious circle. The more migraines I get ,the more I worry. Would it be worth going private to see a nuero? Its going tobe over a year on NHS. The GP seems dismissive now
