Rebellious Thoughts about Osteoporosis - Introduction



In my practice as a doctor in an orthopedic clinic the most common problem that I meet is osteoporosis. It is the main reason for fractures after certain age. With increasing of life expectancy rises the number of osteoporotic fractures. Nowadays osteoporosis is one of the most widespread reasons for hospital treatment, operations, complications and through its complications, such as pulmonary embolism, pneumonias and postoperative infections, it is also a widespread reason of lethal endings.
The reason for osteoporosis is considered to be the hormonal change in the organism which comes after certain age by all women and men, the vitamin D deficiency and calcium malnutrition. Therefore we try to treat it with sex hormones, vitamin D supplements and increasing calcium intake. There is also invented a high recommended through medicine companies specific anti-resorptive agents treatment of osteoporosis with Alendronate and its derivatives.
However despite all treatment methods of modern medicine osteoporosis still takes its victims in modern societies.

In Search of The Perfect Sleep Aid

 For many years, modern medicine has been searching for the perfect sleeping pills. Sleeping pills are a special topic in medicine because they have a lot to do with addiction medicine. Of course, not every sleeping pill can cause addiction, but lighter sleeping pills such as valerian tablets, doxylamine succinate (contained in Schlafsterne), melatonin (or Circadin) have short and insufficient effects. Benzodiazepines, on the other hand, relieve anxiety, which often leads to sleep disorders and are often used by GPs as sleeping pills, although this is not correct. Antidepressants such as mirtazapine are more often used as sleeping pills, but patients often complain of fatigue and drowsiness after their use, which is incompatible with driving, for example.

Mobbing am Arbeitsplatz

 Die Idee zu diesem Artikel entstand nach meinem Besuch in der Balint-Gruppe, die Teil meiner hausärztlichen Ausbildung in Deutschland ist. Ich gebe es nur ungern zu, aber viele ausländische Kollegen werden von höher gestellten deutschen Ärzten oder Ärzten, die ebenfalls ausländischer Abstammung sind, aber in Deutschland aufgewachsen sind und die Sprache besser beherrschen als die Ärzte, die Opfer von Mobbing werden, psychisch belästigt. Jeder weiß, dass viele Ärzte nach Deutschland kommen, um ihren Beruf auszuüben, weil sie hier besser bezahlt werden und bessere Lebensbedingungen vorfinden. Viele Ärzte kommen aus Ländern, in denen es militärische Konflikte gibt. Mir ist aufgefallen, dass viele deutsche Oberärzte sozusagen eine arrogante und respektlose Haltung gegenüber solchen Kollegen haben. In der Balint-Gruppe wurde ein Fall von einem ausländischen Kollegen vorgetragen, woraufhin er von einer Kollegin von uns, die offenbar besser Deutsch konnte als er, als faul und inkompetent...
