25.01.2022 Depression "if so & Why" Contact ur Trusted Doctor. Female & Male - Essendon Family Medical Clinic.

25.01.2022 There are 3 types of headaches. Cluster headaches: This type occurs usually on one side of the head, causes one eye to tear, and leaves you feeling extremely agitated. They are not very common and seem to run in families. Migraines: Migraines typically cause pain (sometimes so intense that it affects a persons ability to function) on one side of the head and possibly nausea and/or sensitivity to light.... Tension headaches: Anyone can get a tension headache, which is caused by muscle tightness in the head, neck, or scalp.

22.01.2022 An amazing experience volunteering at Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre on Christmas Day! Lovely to meet all the other wonderful Elves visiting patients. Giving gifts and spreading love and smiles and giving and receiving hugs. Patients not only welcomed all the beautiful Elves into their rooms but into their lives by sharing their stories. Sending Love, Hugs and Hope. Wishing them well with their treatment and recovery. Receptionist Sue xoxo

21.01.2022 WORLD OSTEOPOROSIS DAY, OCTOBER 20 World Osteoporosis Day is October 20, and were asking Australian women who are over 50 and have had a fracture, or over 70 years old to take action with a bone density scan. Osteoporosis is more common than breast and cervical cancer combined. 1.28 million Australians have osteoporosis, and 6 in 10 of these patients are untreated and at increased risk of fracture.

21.01.2022 Experts don't completely understand what's happening in our skulls when a headache hits, but the most likely explanation is that something causes the blood vessels to swell, subsequently stretching the nerves around them and firing off pain signals.
