On the 24th March 1603 inside of Richmond Palace, one of England’s greatest Queens died at the age of 69. She was the woman who would execute her own cousin who was an anointed Queen, and she would also see off the biggest threats to England of the 16th century. Elizabeth I was a woman who was sick a number of times throughout her life, and she was a Queen who despite being incredibly powerful was haunted by bouts of crippling self doubt with regards to her looks. She would be scarred from smallpox heavily on her face, and despite surviving the deadly disease when she was younger she would be possibly killed by the efforts she made to cover up these scars.

One of the most successful Queens in History was Queen Elizabeth I. The final Tudor Monarch would achieve brilliant victory against the Spanish Armada, which at the time was the most feared naval fleet the world had ever seen. She would manage to sort out a number of problems inside of her Kingdom, and she also had a rather brutal side. She would sentence Mary Queen of Scots to death, and she would executed a number of other prominent people including some of her favourites.

Washington University doctors have found that high-dose vitamin D helps relieve joint and muscle pain in breast cancer patients taking estrogen-lowering drugs. Known as aromatase inhibitors, the drugs are prescribed to treat breast tumors fueled by the hormone estrogen. They are less toxic than chemotherapy, but many patients experience severe musculoskeletal discomfort, including pain and stiffness in the hands, knees, hips, lower back, shoulders and feet.
Dr Dawn Hershmann speaks with ecancer at SABCS 2017 about managing the joint pain of breast cancer patients receiving aromatase inhibitors with acupuncture.
She describes how, in a trial against sham acupuncture and waiting-list control, true acupuncture was found to relieve pain and, she hopes, improve treatment adherence.
