Back at home, I googled the drug to find that these are: depression, sleeping difficulties, nausea, insomnia, a potentially dangerous increase in heart rate, feelings of hostility, suicidal thoughts and nightmares. Other than that, it sounds like a real life-enhancer. If my husband had fathered a love-child with our housekeeper (its not impossible shes an attractive woman, and the way she vacuums borders on indecent), I think Id like to know before a marriage therapist. Id see that as the bare minimum in terms of respect, really. Because to find out at the same time as some bespectacled, 100-quid-an-hour outsider well, that might be a little humiliating. Apparently, Maria Shriver doesnt share my viewpoint. In his new memoir, Arnold Schwarzenegger says that he was forced to come clean about his love-child with his housekeeper, Mildred Baena, by his wife during their couples counselling session. The minute we sat down, he writes, the therapist turned to me and said, 'Maria wanted to come here today and to ask about a child whether you fathered a child with your housekeeper. Now, Im sure marriage therapy works for some, but this kind of interventionism just reminds me of playing the invisible sibling game … Continue reading →

A Flinders University study has found that, after decades of use, cancer pain drug ketamine delivers more side effects for patients than relief. Source: Herald Sun AN anaesthetic drug widely used for decades to treat pain related to cancer has no overall clinical benefit, Flinders University researchers have found. The national study of 185 patients found significantly higher rates of toxicity and other side-effects among the 93 patients given pain drug ketamine as part of their treatment, compared with the 92 who were given a placebo. Chief Investigator and Professor of Palliative and Supportive Services at Flinders University, David Currow, said the results highlighted the potential harm which can be caused by prescribing drugs in ways other than they were originally intended without adequate trials - as ketamine was used. "At sub-anaesthetic doses, ketamine has been shown to help in post-operative pain relief," he said. "So the trial of it in cancer-related pain, where the nerve itself is damaged, was a very logical step." But, he said despite great hope for the drug, the role of ketamine in routine clinical care for chronic, complex cancer pain was "not in any way supported by this study". "The result is resoundingly negative," … Continue reading →
