We’ve sat with John Butters, analytics and visualisation specialist, to talk about men’s health and how he has managed living with a chronic condition.

Despite living with rheumatoid arthritis since 2013, John has a very active lifestyle, running and competing regularly.

“I would like to inspire others so that they can see what is possible even with a chronic condition. It has not held me back, but it has in fact made me more motivated to keep moving and stay healthy.”

We are supporting the Department of Health and Social Care and the NHS on a new campaign encouraging all adults to take the Healthy Choices Quiz. This health and wellbeing quiz aims to empower adults to take control of their health by making small changes day to day.

Taking around 5 minutes to complete, the quiz asks a series of questions about your lifestyle. You will then receive an overall score out of 10 and advice on how you are doing in each area. You’ll also receive personalised recommendations and a wealth of NHS resources including free apps to help you act where it’s most needed.

Experiencing a problem with a medicine or a medical device?

We all have the power to make healthcare products safer. Help others, by reporting a problem using the Yellow Card scheme.

You can report suspected side effects to medicines, adverse incidents with medical devices, safety concerns about e-cigarettes/vapes and defective, low-quality or falsified (fake) products to improve patient safety.

Every report counts. Click the link the comments to learn how to report a problem.

November is . Earlier this year, we sat down with Dr David Cooper and Dr Katie Elliott to answer some of the most frequently asked questions about lung cancer screening.

Lung cancer often has no early symptoms, meaning many people are diagnosed too late for a cure which is why we're educating on the important of screening.
