   Frankly, as somebody with 2 rare autoimmune nerve diseases (affecting my peripheral nervous system), who is disabled, I am not excited about this news. Do they have any sort of residual neuropathic pain, either from their injury or the proc

   There really are some amazing nurses and nurse practitioners out there. I am unhealthy and I have at least 1 medical appointment per week. I am literally indifferent to having a nurse practitioner or a medical doctor as my care provider. An

   There have been recent peer-reviewed journal articles about how much insulin would cost to produce for each person with type 1 diabetes per year. It is somewhere between $75-$125 USD for a person with T1D per year. Remember, T1D is an autoi

    If you live in the US and plan on staying alive in the long run, then you better spend a lot of time consulting HealthData.org--and analyzing the data there--to fit your particular situation. The third leading cause of death--or at least wh

    This is most likely a TDOS attack, given the busy signals [1]. Plus, the transformer that happened to blow last night in NYC adds to the suspicion, as the Ukraine Power Grid attack on December 23, 2015 was a TDOS attack [2], too. Additional
