Hi Medlib,
I have a quick question if you don't mind:
It's for my pdoc, who is a nurse practitioner (can prescribe meds) and a psychotherapist. She is always amazed that I can find so much info on the web about meds and other things like the DSM-IV, etc. I think she is not computer-illiterate, but needs cajoling. She is not affiliated with a medical institution, which usually grants Medline searching privileges for free to clinicians. She wants to be able to do medline searches, and get more than just abstracts to the queries, in other words, full text. Is there such a database/website out there that provides that kind of fuller info? I know how to tell her to do searches to get citations and abstracts, but I would love to help her be able to find more info.
Any help would be *greatly* appreciated...
Yours truly,
Wendy

(I'd reregister, but just got through doing that.) I was (belatedly, as usual) replying to Cam's reply on the previous PSB board. Here's his post; the last paragraph is funny:

I'm a little like Scott (SLS), in that some combination of my illness and multiple meds leaves me slogging in stuff I used to zip through at warp speed. When I can read and process anything substantive, it's only slightly faster, and probably less accurately, than I can type. (Noa, you may recall that's at turtle speed.) Also like Scott, I had a 2 week "window" on Geodon during which I "awakened". Having to give it up because my jaw locked shut was heartbreaking, not to mention terrifying.
