pic parallel at the same time so here you outpatient clinic you offer a holistic approach to pain management so ho often does it happen that patients have to stop taking pain medication altogether before you can treat them never. patients never have to stop any medication before they come to us because we offer at the same time we often you would type of treatment. and sometimes we decide together with the patients that it's wise to decrease the previous. treatment to go dog with a dose to replace it by a better type of treatment which can be another drug which can be a psychological treatment so patients don't have to worry that if they come to you with that you're texting away from that they never have to very never have to vary and see you. as a g.p.m. equated to 2 kinds of patients one which i'm quite a hypochondriac if something's painful they just come to me and say i want to have some pain medication and on the other hand there are some patients who are really
9:48 am
in pain they don't want to take anything so how do they decide when to see dr thing . patients go to a doctor if the things will go to a doctor from my side as a physician not as a patient i would say i would recommend if the pain is so such a big impact on my daily life and. the problems with sleeping with walking with happiness then i should try to visit the doctor but it's always good 1st to try to solve my problems by myself but if it's not working i should think about talk with somebody who is professional and you as a professional can you always heal pain no i cannot. what i like to do is they like to listen to my patients. and their problems. really because i love this job. and patients normally are very happy if we really talk about it if they have the

a day for heart health would seem to make sense. but it's not that simple in fact the drug can have serious side effects. gastrointestinal specialist mathias hébert explains. ask you to use aspirin is a medication that inhibits particular proteins in the stomach and the gastric mucosa but we need these proteins in order for the cast. closer to regenerate if that doesn't happen it's susceptible to injury to show these injuries might start to bleed. effect. so people who take aspirin on a regular basis could have an increased risk of bleeding from the lining of the stomach and does it really prevent cardiovascular disease. the aspirin and reducing events in the elderly trials known as asprey looked at 20000 adults over 70 with various risk factors such as high blood pressure high

cholesterol and diabetes. the aim was to see whether low dose aspirin $100.00 milligrams a day could prevent cardiovascular disease it showed that it led to a minimal reduction in cardiovascular diseases such as heart attacks and strokes. the aspirin trial divided 20000 people into 2 randomized groups. over the course of several years one group was given aspirin every day the other group placebo. participants were unaware which group they belong to. a study showed that aspirin did not significantly reduce the risk of heart attacks or strokes when taken by older adults who hadn't experienced the condition before. the risk of serious bleeding among the aspirin takers was increased compared to the placebo group. in recent

true. basic research has been done in the areas i just mentioned and there are also individual clinical studies for example studies about people who have epilepsy that doesn't respond to other medicines but c.b.d. works he said despite the positive benefits they haven't been enough studies done on the ones that were done were too small in scope and in some cases when their quality was lacking. those who draw the wrong conclusions from all the claims made these days could even harm their health rather than help it. if someone for example reads in a brochure about the anti diabetic effect of c.b.d. that it helps reduce blood sugar levels but it could give diabetic patients false hope when they might think they can reduce their insulin dose and the worst case scenario they do it without consulting a doctor they can put themselves at serious risk of losing. in general
