14.01.2022 Microtia and atresia is a rare congenital condition affecting one in every 10,000 births and where one or both ears are missing or when the outer ear has not fully developed. 10 year old Sebastian was born with right side Microtia Atresia and in 2019 had ear reconstruction surgery. His surgeon Dr Joe Dusseldorp used modern technology to 3D print a replica ear, before connecting it to the Sebastian's head. Parents Carlos and Shirley's talked to Recover/Me about their son Seba...stian, 9 years of age at the time of the operation, being only the second person to have the procedure done with Dr Dusseldorp in Australia. Microtia Awareness Day dedicates November 9th to spreading hope and knowledge concerning a congenital disability, which derives its name from the Latin terms for little ears. #NationalMicrotiaAwarenessDay Joe Dusseldorp Sebastian’s journey Hear and Say

09.01.2022 According to the Australian Institute of Health and Welfare an estimated 5% of the Australian population (1 million Australian adults), reported they had type 2 diabetes in 201718, according to self-reported data from the ABS 201718 National Health Survey. Information based on self-reported data only is likely to underestimate the prevalence of type 2 diabetes as many cases remain unreported, due to survey participants either not knowing or accurately reporting their diabet...es status. Warren Bingham was one individual who didn't have symptoms and was unaware he had Type 2 Diabetes. In this interview he talks about his initial conversation with his GP and the treatment options available. Today Warren is on a diet and exercise controlled lifestyle to manage his condition. He opted to follow this change in behaviour and was able to avoid needing medication for type 2 diabetes. Warren is the ambassador for Diabetes NSW & ACT. #HeadsUpDiabetes #HeadsUp #NationalDiabetesWeek #diabetes #NDW2020 RecoverMe patient stories are for awareness purposes only.

03.01.2022 Today is International Clinical Trials Day 2020. The day commemorates the day James Lind started his study to determine the cause of scurvy. By dividing 12 sailors into separate groups and testing the effect of providing different treatments to each group, Lind was able to provide evidence of the link between fruit and preventing scurvy. This is the first recorded controlled clinical trial and changed modern medicine. Around the world International Clinical Trials Day is cele...brated to raise awareness of the importance of clinical trials and research in healthcare. Today we hear from Christine Zahren Co-Founder and Director of White Coats Foundation about the importance of involving the public in clinical trials either as patients with existing health conditions as well as healthy volunteers. She also shares where information on clinical trials can be found; namely through government sites, speaking with people in healthcare and ClinTrial Refer, a mobile app, that can search clinical trials across Australia and New Zealand. #InternationalClinicalTrialsDay2020 #ICTD2020 #InternationalClinicalTrialsDay #whitecoatsfoundation #clinicaltrials #CaptureEveryStory
