Capsule Comments with Ernie Miatello Melanoma, a form of skin cancer, is being treated by a new vaccine made from the pa- tient's own cancer cells. The vaccine stimu- lates the patient's immune system to fight the cancer. Research is in the experimental stage but results are promising. Electroconvulsive Therapy (ECT) is a viable option for treating se- vere depression. Today's modern techniques make ECT a safe, humane and effective treatment. It involves sending a small elec- trical impulse to the brain for about a second. Usually 6-8 treat- ments will bring about improvement. Three neurological diseases will be a bigger problem than AIDS in the early 21st Century. They are ALS, Alzheimers and Parkin- son's Disease. Interestingly the incidence of ALS and Parkinsons increases as you go north. A recent report in the British Medical Journal found that 95% of women of child-bearing age suffer at least mild symptoms of PMS (Premenstrual syndrome). About 5% suffer so severely that they become suicidal or violent. PMS.... not something to be taken lightly. HURON APOTHECARY Ltd.
