Wow...........Heartiest Congrats to all pain crusaders esp. Prof Rajagopal & the hard working IAPC team for approaching the honorable supreme court to mount the pressure on the Govt to pass the narcotic amendment bill. THANKS.......Thanks....

Now morphine permits shall be issued by narcotic commissioner of India, a central govt body.

A great victory !! A matter of huge rejoice for all.

All major hospitals should now try to procure/stock morphine for pain relief. Multiple dept permissions are not required.
A major pain education campaign is the need of the hour. What it means now.... This bill alone will not eradicate pain.

Today is The World Cancer Day.
With a million new cases being reported every year, cancer seems to be tightening its grip on India. Experts say the incidence of the killer disease is expected to rise five-fold by 2025.According to medical professionals, lung and oral cancers were the most common among men while cervix and breast cancer were striking more and more women.
Cancer is one of the leading causes of deaths in India, which has nearly three million patients suffering from the disease, they said.Annually, nearly 500,000 people die of cancer in India. The WHO said this number is expected to rise to 700,000 by 2015.
Ignorance among the public, delayed diagnosis and lack of adequate medical facilities has given cancer the dubious distinction of being a ‘killer disease’. However, the fact remains that if cancer is detected in its early stages, it can be treated and an individual can lead a healthy life,
