I was thumbing through Internal Medicine News (go to www.internalmedicinenews.com) and it had some interesting news about:

Survivor Care Key After Breast Cancer

Being in Good Physical Health Boosts Survival After Breast Cancer

New Drug Approved to Target Fibromyalgia

Advisory Says Use Topical Anesthetic with Caution (sometimes used in mammagrams)

Many Adults Turn to Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) for Chronic Pain Relief

Letrozole Beats Tamoxifen in Breast Cancer Trial

Lobular Involution May Protect Again Breast Cancer

Gamma Imaging Can Identify Occult Breast Cancer

Brease Cancer Survival Tied to Hormone Therapy

Thought someone may be interested in perusing the articles.  For you runners, there is every an article about altering your technique to avoid injury.

And for those of you tired of filling out forms, the Department of HHS is working on an electronic form.

    Great link and web site!

     Katalin - I clicked at the top menu where it stated to view current issue.  Then on next page select an article (FREE) and click to view Full Text.

     The way I got around viewing an article not available was to copy/paste teh exact text and author into GOOGLE to see if I could view it else where for free.  Sometimes this works for sites that want to charge for viewing.

    Sorry - I tried to post and my computer kicked me off - how rude!  Anyway, cp418 figured it out.  I have only been on the site briefly.  My sister and I live together and she is a doctor who subscribes to this journal.
