In this podcast, James Cave (Editor-in-Chief) and David Phizackerley (Deputy Editor) preview the November issue of DTB. This includes an editorial that focuses on the National Institute of Health and Care Excellence's draft guideline on the management of chronic pain, and in particular, the approach to treating chronic primary pain (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/58/11/162). The editors talk about a new patient-held steroid emergency card that has been introduced to help healthcare staff identify adult patients with adrenal insufficiency (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/58/11/163). They also discuss the diagnosis and treatment of orthostatic hypotension. This month's case report involves a patient who developed medication-related osteonecrosis (MRONJ) of the mandible and maxilla (https://dtb.bmj.com/content/58/11/172).
