For what this is worth (anecdotal, so of little value), I have read posts by someone on another website whose TN went into remission with (I think) methylcobalamin and methylfolate. There are four different kinds of vitamin B12 available and I think they found that they had to try several kinds...

Another article (from the BBC this time) on the effects of using mesh : Life after vaginal mesh surgery

You might find the two links in this post help to answer your question : https://www.s4me.info/threads/unintended-consequence-of-poorly-thought-out-legislation-not-important.8904/#post-157171 Certain drugs, usually those which are addictive, have rules attached about who can prescribe, how...

Thanks for the hansard link. I'm glad there are some people in parliament with a heart. I still think there are plenty of politicians who had theirs excised at some point in their lives, but that could just be my own prejudice.

'We're absolutely appalled' say mesh campaigners over NICE decision I'm absolutely appalled too. This is NICE telling women everywhere to piss off because their experiences and their quality of life is of no interest and of no importance to the NHS. Saying there is "limited evidence on the...

Do you have some evidence for this? I am not trying to be combative. I just haven't seen any evidence for separate vaccines being worse than combined ones, nor can I see how this can be true from a logical point of view. Challenging and stressing the immune system, particularly of very young...

One of the things that worries me about vaccines is that nowadays they are given from birth onwards. I wonder what effect this has on immature immune systems. And since most of the vaccines/immunisations are not that old, nobody knows what effects they may have in a few decades time. The...

Being low or high in vitamin B6 levels can cause neuropathic pain. I have no experience of using CBD oil in sensible doses, but I've read lots of comments about it helping people for pain of various kinds. I can't take evening primrose oil because it does drastic things to my mental health for...

And don't forget that anyone with an axe to grind can delete pages they don't like. For example, Dr Malcolm Kendrick's page got deleted fairly recently because some stupid and anonymous wiki editor decided he was a quack. There appeared to be little or no requirement for this person to justify...

I think this would be the start of a very, very, VERY slippery slope. The next things that would be in the firing line is access to information about statins that disagrees with what pharmaceutical companies want us to think. And what about diet? How many people would have tried a low carb...

I wonder if the powers-that-be are trying to shorten life expectancy and reduce the size of the population. In doing so there is a saving on costs in national systems of healthcare, the non-rich will be forced to pay for healthcare if and when they are desperate enough and can save up enough...

Anecdotal info based on my own experience : I reduced my own anxiety by optimising my iron and other minerals and vitamins. If you have an iron or other nutrient test instigated by a doctor they will often tell you that results are fine if the results are just inside the reference range. But...

I would say no. See the government response on this page : https://petition.parliament.uk/petitions/241584 :(

Unfortunately, there are plenty of idiots in the UK who want to get rid of the NHS. And I don't think they are all rich either. They are probably people who have been healthy all their lives and have never had to worry about the cost of healthcare. Sadly, the NHS is collapsing through lack of...

On the donor wall the map on the USA tab and the map and list of donors on the International tab only shows up in Chrome for me. In Firefox there is only a list of donors on the USA tab and no map, and the international tab won't even show up.

I'd give you a dozen likes for this if I could! :laugh:

'The NHS is finally saying no!' - this is what patients could no longer be able to get on prescription My suggested alternative title : "How to make life even more difficult for the poor and sick". A chart showing what medicines patients will be stopped from getting on prescription has gone...

Unless I can't see the wood for the trees, the article appears to be anonymous. I notice at the bottom it says "Posted in [sic] George Winter". Are we supposed to assume George Winter is the author? Is he a journalist? Is he an editor? How much weight does he carry in psychiatric or medical...
