So why did a couple of conditions appear in yesterday's list more than once? This is because of the way health conditions get categorised. This is in fact a very complicated subject, but I just want to illustrate a couple of examples of why health language can be so confusing.

So why did a couple of conditions appear in yesterday's list more than once? This is because of the way health conditions get categorised. This is in fact a very complicated subject, but I just want to illustrate a couple of examples of why health language can be so confusing.
A disease can be categorised by what causes it: The term autoimmune means the body's own defences destroy its own cells. Type 1 diabetes melitus (T1DM) was in our list, and it occurs when the beta cells in the pancreas are mistakingly destroyed by immune cells. T1DM can be said to be an autoimmune disease.
A disease can be categorised by the system that is affected: Because beta cells produce a hormone called insulin, and the system that regulates hormones is called the endocrine system, T1DM can be said to be an endocrine disorder.
Diseases are categorised in a lot of other ways too, but cause and system are the most common, especially for LTCs. Essentially, all these categories are just a way for health professionals to be as specific and accurate as possible; but it can sometimes seem as though there are a dozen different names for the same thing. You'll be pleased to know we won't teach you all these terms on a My Health myself course, but we will show you some ways you can help your health professional communicate more effectively with you.
Take care every one

Most likely a stray or farm cat but just posting details in case someone has lost a cat like this recently.

Well, here it is, a list of generic health problems that are often considered to be LTCs. Each of these groups are made up of a number of diseases, and I have included some examples:
Autoimmune diseases such as type 1 diabetes, coeliac disease, IBD, and multiple sclerosis; Cancer and the effects of its treatment; Cardiac conditions such as angina or heart failure; Endocrine disorders including diabetes, osteoporosis, and thyroid conditions; Hepatic diseases, which are those affecting the liver; Mental health conditions, for example schizophrenia; Neurological conditions such as multiple sclerosis, epilepsy, stroke, traumatic head injury, and spinal cord disorders; Renal conditions, which are disorders of the kidneys; Respiratory conditions like asthma and COPD (which itself covers a number of diseases); and Rheumatic diseases such as arthritis, fibromyalgia, and gout.
This is not a comprehensive list (it's not even once over lightly really) and I will have missed a number of common ones. The key take-away is that an LTC is a condition that does not currently have a cure. Tomorrow I will touch on why some conditions appeared in this list more than once.
Take care everyone
