This guideline updates the advice on managing neuropathic pain. It’s worth a look through as there are some changes. The main things are:
Diabetic neuropathy – now to be treated in the same way as other neuropathies
Do not use – Lidocaine, imipramine and nortriptyline don’t have enough evidence behind them to be advised. This doesn’t mean that they’re not effective – nor that we can’t use them!
"I really like LocumDeck. Before, I was doing everything myself. It was a nightmare! Keeping a record of who has paid, chasing them – with LocumDeck, all that goes away. All you have to do is just book your sessions and work.
Doing remote sessions through LocumDeck has also been a very nice experience. The practices assign the patients very thoughtfully, considering the limitation of remote consultation, and I have developed a very good working relationships with them."
