ORTHOPEADICS AND FYBRO
I have gone from being a full time support worker looking after adults with
learning
disabilities
to not being able to look after myself or being able to walk very far. I went to my GP in November last year with pain in my left thigh blood tests and xrays say there is nothing wrong.

Research for families caring for relatives with learning disabilities during the coronavirus epidemic
It aims to capture the effect of the coronavirus pandemic on informal carers of people with
learning
disabilities
. This research is important because it will help the NHS and local authorities to understand what support needs to be in place for families.

Any hope for reactive tinnitus and distortion or hypercusis to improve or go away after 7 months with it?
I've had my reactive tinnitus for 7 months now. It still reacts to music well lots of music. Classical music is where I noticed the least distortion but pop music I noticed whistling and beeps over it. Been going on like this 7 months now. My dad's voice sounds robotic and so does the tv and my own

A 25 year old guy that loves the gym from the Netherlands.
Hey guys! I usually don't post on anything, but this time, I feel like I need to get and give support to those that are experiencing something similar, since I learned that professionals and friends & family have quite a hard time understanding the severity of this condition. When I say severity, don't

Confused as to whether I should shield or just follow guidelines for everyone.
I am a support worker working with adults with
learning
disabilities
. I am worried that continuing to work will put me at risk. Don't know what to do. Update: I emailed the AN from the resp team at the hospital.
