How to understand about markers in the blood
Can you explain to me what these "markers" are and what is their significance? What numbers should they ideally be? Zero perhaps? I feel very confused about this and didn't ask the oncologist the right questions when I saw her. Is it bad if they are high, or only if they are going up? Than...

Restless Legs
I've suffered from lower back pain for many years, but was never that bothersome. It has got steadily worse over the last 3-4 years however I am able to manage it with a combination of OTC pain relief and yoga.

Bad Posture
Although I don't have serious back pain, my little niggles seem to be getting worse and are extending into my neck and hands. I suspect it may be that I'm sitting at my computer poorly? Does anyone else suffer from bad posture and if so how do I go about correcting it? I'm concerned that if I don't ...
