The Origins of Anxiety
According to author and psychiatrist Jeffrey P. Kahn, M.D., in his book Angst: Origins of Anxiety & Depression, today’s disorders might’ve been yesterday’s valuable social instincts.
Today’s panic disorder might’ve prevented our ancestors from venturing to potentially dangerous places, far away from their families and tribes.
Today’s social anxiety might’ve maintained social hierarchies and peace in primitive times.
Today’s obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD) might’ve helped our ancestors keep tidy and safe nests.

50 Years Ago Today Charles Dotter Invented Angioplasty
It was 50 years ago today that Dr. Charles T. Dotter, a radiologist in Portland, Oregon, performed the first angioplasty. But it wasn't in the heart; it was in the leg. An 82-year-old woman was suffering from great pain in her left foot because of blocked circulation in her leg. Her toes had become gangrenous and there was an non-healing ulcer. Amputation was recommended by the physicians at Oregon Health Sciences University, but the woman refused. A video clip from my documentary "Explorers of the Heart" tells more.

When a person succumbs to the illness, often it is because he or she has relinquished the possibility of healing.

To all the other factors that hold people back from taking their meds, he adds social and religious factors, concerns about side effects an...
