What does that mean? People who loved their jobs were more likely to suffer burnout? Or the reverse? It's completely unclear!

One of the things that doesn't get mentioned publicly very often is that medical records can be stuffed with absolutely shocking mistakes, evasions, omissions and lies. Some people have been told that their records were lost in a fire or a flood or have been lost for unknown reasons. These...

That would mean the Countess of Mar was at the bottom of the hierarchy (Edit : In SW's view), based on the treatment she got from SW. Didn't he invite her for lunch a few years ago then didn't actually offer her any food or drink, bought his own lunch, and she had to order and pay for her own...

It is worth recording the date (and time if available) for everything recorded in this thread.

That was what I was worried about.

Off topic (mostly). After reading the link in the OP I poked around on the same site and came across this link, dated 10th November 2016 : https://www.rcseng.ac.uk/news-and-events/blog/the-right-to-autonomy-of-treatment-is-a-common-law-right/ Title : A common law right to autonomy of...

A rectocele? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rectocele

I've had this problem in the past but it does seem to have slowly dwindled over the years. In my case the commonest sensation I got was it felt like I had a drop of water trickling down my nose. Sometimes I would feel like I had a hair on my nose or on my eyelids or around my eyes. I still get...

I used to have an excellent sense of smell. I found it very useful for making sure I didn't eat bad food, identifying the occasional fire, detecting when the dog had rolled in something stinky. So it's actually a very useful attribute to have. I'm very annoyed that my sense of smell has waned so...

This is what sprung to mind when I read this :

If MUS are so common it suggests that today's doctors aren't taught how to diagnose anything very much, at least if the problem is not visible. From the experience of friends and relatives over the last few years : Doctors took : 1) 1 year to diagnose ovarian cancer - by the time it was...

This has already happened. I went to an A&E 70 miles from home in spring last year following a minor accident. I thought I might have broken my arm. I had never set foot in this particular hospital in my life before. When I gave my name and address the receptionist looked me up on her computer...

I never knew that journal even existed!

Snap! I did get a reduction in pain levels with the TCAs. But I also got tachycardia. And the tachycardia was intolerable, so I had to give the TCAs up. The amitriptyline gave me a heart rate of around 150 bpm, the nortriptyline gave me a heart rate of 135 bpm. Neither was tolerable for very...
