Terminal cancer patients ‘not getting adequate pain relief’
https://www.leeds.ac.uk/news/article/3912/terminal_cancer_patients_not_getting_adequate_pain_relief
This piece in a UK newspaper on the back of the above study also from this week –
Cancer patients not given painkillers soon enough, study finds
Reason I marked these pieces as sensitive as it does discuss pain etc for patients and some people may find this a sensitive issue to read about.
Pain is something that can be controlled and it is something that should be discussed and looked into if it is an issue. If something does not work then do not take no for an answer and look for something else to try.
Hugs,
Gavin
