Here is an excerpt: Does Plaquenil, a medication commonly used to treat RA, lower the risk of developing diabetes? The Journal of the American Medication Association (JAMA) published a study which looked at that very question. (See Hydroxychloroquine...

"Cancer begs for year-round awareness,” reads the headline of a letter to the editor in Georgia’s Augusta Chronicle this week. The letter writer then wades into a debate about whether Breast Cancer Awareness Month (which is October) should be expanded to include all types of cancer.

I do my best to respect people's privacy. I am in no way condemning the Oconee Enterprise newspaper for disclosing that she has Lupus, especially if she is OK with them disclosing it. I guess I am a little sensitive to the sharing of medical information after working in the University Health Center for a number of years.

The other day, I w rote about an unfortunate young woman named Desiree Jennings, who claimed to have had a rare neurological disorder known as dystonia as a complication of being vaccinated for seasonal flu, when it appears that her condition is likely to have at least a strong psychogenic component and is unlikely to be due to the vaccine.
