A 69 year old man with diabetes, dyslipidemia, and alcohol use disorder comes to see you for 6 months of annoying foot paresthesia. “I think I have neuropathy, and it all came on after I started this statin.” He wants to stop it. What would you do in this #ContinuumCase?

Possession of nitrous oxide with the intent to get high becomes illegal in England and Wales today. With repeat offenders facing up to two years in jail. Kerry-Anne Donaldson, who uses a wheelchair due to her excessive use of the drug, welcomes the news but fears the law change alone won't be enough to stop access.

Legislation on nitrous oxide should target manufacturers supplying the gas, not users who are largely young people. Watch this video for explanation from @predictPD @djnicholl on how the control of N2O as a Class C drug will be unlikely to reduce harm. youtu.be/Pzb0TWtgZAs

Our thoughts and prayers are with the people, local and tourists, who are on the island of #Rhodes. A wildfire that has been raging on the Greek island of Rhodes for five days forced hundreds of people to flee affected villages and beaches by land and sea. #Lindos 📷 nasper_19

Hot new research! This HUMONGOUS case series (n=119) across 3 English cities shows that laughing gas causes a range of preventable harm to users - from nervous system damage to bladder issues and chest pain. Authors call for stricter regulation jnnp.bmj.com/content/early/2…
