Medicine is the art and science of healing. It encompasses a range of health care practices evolved to maintain and restore health by the prevention and treatment of illness.

Contemporary medicine applies health science, biomedical research, and medical technology to diagnose and treat injury and disease, typically through medication, surgery, or some other form of therapy. The word medicine is derived from the Latin ars medicina, meaning the art of healing.

Though medical technology and clinical expertise are pivotal to contemporary medicine, successful face-to-face relief of actual suffering continues to require the application of ordinary human feeling and compassion, known in English as bedside manner.

Where can I find a medicine which will help to reduce the side effect suffer from chemotherapy surgery?
Q. I am looking for a medicine which will help to reduce the side effect suffer from chemotherapy surgery. The doctor told me the medicine contains "L-Glutamine" and it is made by "Cambridge Nutraceuticals company". However, I couldn't find it anyway. Anyone know where I can buy it? Online or in-store all fine.

A. You can buy it at most vitamin stores or body building supply shops. Ask for L- Glutamine itself. My wife took it during chemo. It is best and more economical to buy it in powder form and without any other additives. Don't just buy a general supplement with some L-Glutamine in it. It is made by more than one company. You just mix the powder up with water or I guess milk if you want. Add some real vanilla extract if you want to improve the flavour as it doesn't have much taste.

What is the best medicine for chronic pain in spine?
Q. I have had a crushed spinal cord and am so tired of the pain. I would perfer a medicine that is not something that is addictive or that will make me dopey.

A. Pain relievers are tricky meds. Voixx was a cox-2 inhibitor, and pulled from the market, as you know, but Celebrex is still available. Cox-2 enzyme is necessary for cardiac health, so eliminate Celebrex as a consideration. Additonally, we are learning that Motrin (Ibuprofin) is also not really great when it comes to the heart muscle, and doctors are getting literature now that suggests it too is detrimental. Aleve seems to be clear of any really serious side effects except that as all of the nsaid's it is bothersome to stomach. You could try that one, if you have not already done so. Available generic, and otc. You may find a combination of tylenol/darvon helpful -- it's call darvocet, script only. In the amounts generally… [cont.]
