General medical/health sub-forum

Just wondering...?

Don't want to take anything away from the great mental health/depression thread but a bit stuck at the minute on where you'd post a thread in a similar way for something like dementia, prostate cancer or perhaps a generic weight loss/fitness type stuff? All of which could be really useful self-help/awareness stuff.

If you stick it in the Ale House you'd get the mick taking out of it and it would seem a bit lost in the Current Affairs alongside Trump and Brexit..

Never google stuff about health on the internet, EVER.

Unless its a resource given to you by your Doctor, but if in doubt, NEVER google anything about health on the internet, always go to the Doctor.

As Bruce says, the last thing the internet needs is a group of footy fans trying to play Doctor on the internet.

The depression thread is different, for obvious reasons, with mental health talking is the best thing you can do, whether its with your cat, randoms on the internet or the post at the bottom of your garden.

But if you have a lump that concerns you, a headache you cant shift or a cough that doesnt seem to go away, talking wont help, only seeking medical care will.

I can help you with your medical conditions frandel, just ask me for the advice

Look, Joseph, your posting has improved, and mainly due to me prescribing lots of bed rest.

Joking apart it a good suggestion your new thread health is more important than money -- to a certain degree no amount of money can buy good health!

Tell them Dr Orly has referred you, my initial diagnosis is that you are suffering from Hard Brexit Mania, however your prognosis is good, take bed rest three times a day for the next decade and please wear pants in bed

Not a 100% guarantee but the Ale House generally seems alright and most seem to have the ability to gauge what's appropriate on the more serious issues. A specialist medical sub-forum would seem somewhat out of place for GOT.
