My god. What an absolute abomination. The journal of Medical Ethics publishes a commentary in 2013 that attempts to morally justify the killing of a baby after birth — an afterbirth abortion. 🧵
Kristin M. Collier, MD@HSRdirector

reading this piece for the first time also from @bmj_latest that says killing a newborn “should be permissible in all cases ….. including cases where the newborn is not disabled.”

Then what is your take on Nurse Practitioners and Physician Assistants? A Medical School Graduate with a MD has twice the education and WAY more training than a NP or a PA at graduation. Yet, a NP or PA can be a Cardiologist on Friday and Gastroenterologist on Monday. They can even work in the ER or ICU. Someone make this make sense. They both bill your Health Insurance 85% a Doctors fee if seen Unsupervized. #Hospital #scam #CORRUPTION

@LighthouseDPC @DrDiGiorgio Medical schools do not produce physicians. They produce useless individuals with medical degrees but no license to practice.

@SuThE84929 @NPWhite717 Asking me to prove and uncaused cause by giving it a cause is kind of the problem. You dont disprove a first cause by asking what came before. Prove a triangle has 3 side by show me a fourth.

Heart failure is a clinical diagnosis based on symptoms and exam findings. You can’t make the diagnosis by echocardiogram. Patients with low LVEF can be euvolemic. And those with normal LVEF can be in significant heart failure (diastolic). We get an echo in new HF to guide management, but it does not make the diagnosis.

@DrSiyabMD How often are you seeing cardiac arrest from torsades 2/2 zofran in your practice?

@DrSiyabMD There is no way that otc zofran is going to account for more hospital stays than alcohol, cigarettes, aspirin, Tylenol, or PPIs (pneumonia risk). This is clearly an OTC med.

@DrSiyabMD I mean … idk man. I suppose that risk isn’t zero but I’d be really surprised by a huge rash of cardiac arrests from QTC prolonging from OTC ondansetron. I guess we shall see if it occurs. This isn’t a reply that necessarily means I support all of the OTC transitions.

As someone who's father was ripped apart by russian artillery, this fucking hit me. Your parent being ripped away from you in a matter of a second with grotesque brutality is an experience non could imagine, unless you lived it. #RussiaIsATerroristState

A Russian strike on Kherson killed a mother right before her son’s eyes. His screams... Such grief. Deepest condolences...

Right now Kherson is under massive bombardment. FPV attacks have doubled to 600 EVERY DAY. Glide bombs are constant. Entire neighbourhoods are turning to rubble. Russians are hunting innocent civilians on the streets. Women, children, war crimes in plain sight. They are trying to completely destroy the city. International coverage is almost zero & the situation is catastrophic. In this report, I embed with a drone patrol that are the city’s first line of defence. What I witnessed was brutality on an industrial scale. If Russia isn’t stopped, this will spread and Kherson will be a blueprint for cities across Europe in the future. Europe stopped violence like this before in WW2 and it can do it again. Please watch and share my latest:

In the same press conference where Vance admits “I’m here to help [Orban] in this campaign cycle,” he accuses Ukraine of having “tried to put their thumb on the scale” of the Hungarian election. Talk about rules for thee but not for me…

Russian bastards attacked a civilian bus in Nikopol with an FPV drone. Three people were killed, and 12 others were injured. The attack took place in the city center, the bus was pulling up to a stop when the occupiers deliberately struck it. Russia must be destroyed.

Looks like he’s not putting me on a psych hold but is giving me too little mag to make a meaningful difference in my dangerous cardiac symptoms & to decrease the progressively debilitating edema causing the death of muscle on my foot. Just 1 g over one hour. Minuscule, but better than nothing. Kaiser has behaved so endangeringly. Have life-threatening cardiac symptoms. I have documented dysautonomia driven falls, pounding heart, and clutching lungs from sinus tachycardia and leaping and diving BPM caused by the fluoroquinolone injury driven neuropathy (not any cardiac-originating problem). I have healthy cardiac structure & function & triglycerides of 31 and HDL of 112. High sensitivity CRP 0.3 BP 99/62 or 103/65. Insulin two out of 22. Lp(a) of 10! And Pattern A LDL-P and other stats reflecting strong cardiometabolic health. Also healthy renal function w EGFR of 96 & I can’t recall that creatinine level but normal, as are the rest of the stats. The dangerous symptoms including the progressive death of muscle stems from FQ driven nerve damage, the small fiber of large fiber neuropathy I’ve been diagnosed with, and electrical regulation failures because of this. Dr. Boyarsky talked over me and refused to listen to me and when I told him I have medical expertise he asked me to tell him what program I graduated from. My primary care doctor graduated from med school and has a medical license. He told me I just needed “a different kind” of oral magnesium. I’m sorry, is there a magic kind that changes the chemical pathology of fluoroquinolones in the gut, wagging a nagging finger at them and telling them not to dare chelate the magnesium taken orally and NOT turn it into an insoluble complex that is too heavy in molecular weight to get into cells?! And then there are the nurses here, whom I thanked— even disrespectful Josh, for what help he did give me getting into a wheelchair and his job and taking my stats while (in my observation and opinion not being willing to listen to me— cutting me off etc. Like son of Boyarsky!) I saw it and came to understand what nurses do— truly ease patients’ suffering moment moment— when my late beloved friend Cathy Seipp was hospitalized at Cedar Sinai. Since then, I have an enormous and well warranted love and appreciation for nurses in general. Anyway, I’ve been up till 3 AM writing Kaiser’s chairman (see below somewhere) to put Kaiser on notice that they must reverse the administrative memo over writing doctors prescriptions of magnesium and sentencing me to needless and irreversible muscle death in my foot and loss of the ability to stand and walk normally. And also leaving me with dangerous cardiac symptoms that will not be mitigated by the itsy-bitsy dose of magnesium I will get today. And shame on Dr. Boyarsky for talking over me and then making me afraid I would be held against my will and possibly drugged. Anyway the point I was getting To is that once he left and nurses came in to take my stats and put some stuff in the computer, they hung out in my room a little bit and I started talking about medicine and science. And they listened and they saw that I knew a thing or two, and one of the nurses, who is in training at Santa Monica nursing college, asked about the fluoroquinolone effects magnesium where I got that from. Meaning what paper. Probably to see if I actually got it from a paper, which is, BTW, necessary skepticism that I respect. I don’t know which paper(s) off top of my head & a bunch are back on my home computer. But I told her to look up fluoroquinolone & chelate & she’ll find it. The other nurse was asking me about ADHD drugs & he listened as I explained something about Adderall & how it works. Those nurses heard me & I think it was pretty clear they realized I had science of value in my head, and they listened. (I learned from my truly excellent psychiatrist that drs who don’t listen miss vital info they need to properly diagnose and treat a patient.)

In ER. Dr Boyarsky. Only mentioning name in case he forces psych hold. Seriously. Need IV mag sulfate to stop dangerous cardiac symptoms and save ability to stand (stop neuropathy / dysautonomia driven edema compressing calcaneal nerve in heel , denervating muscle. Have muscle death in foot and if it progresses further due to the edema I will lose my ability to stand without a brace or prosthesis Kaiser administrators sent around a memo prohibiting doctors from giving me the magnesium sulfate IV one of them is prescribed for me in another one got permission on safety grounds from nephrology to prescribe. Told me he would prescribe it after he got OK. Now I cannot ask them this because they will get in trouble because of this order. In the emergency room this doctor tells me he’ll call my primary care doctor. My primary care doctor is completely ignorant of the chemical pathology injury while claiming to have scope of practice. He shows with his assessments that the science on fluoroquinolone injury is foreign to him. He told me I just need a different kind of oral magnesium but I told him I was taking 10,000 mg a day, a huge overdose, causing severe diarrhea, to get the fraction of magnesium I have in my system. Dr. Boyarsky treat me as if I am crazy. I told him I see a psychiatrist to get ADHD medication and I’m highly rational and not mentally unwell. It sounds like he was going to force a psychiatrist on me here and I’m terrified. They can easily take your freedom and autonomy by deeming you mentally unwell. This visit started out with a guy name Josh taking my blood pressure so incorrectly and refusing to do it correctly. He actually had me hold my arm in the air. And I was talking during the other BP take. Have to go to the urine sample so I’m cutting off now but if I don’t post again here in the next two hours by 10 AM Pacific time, please people worry about me. I’m in Kaiser West Los Angeles emergency room. And Boyarsky refused to listen to me, so I told him I have medical expertise to try to get him to listen to me so I could explain that my symptoms are not caused by cardiac structure or health or function issues (ruled out by tests inc DVT eco Holter) but are caused by a failure of regulation from the nerve damage (diagnosed small & large fiber neuropathy), and the edema this leads to which magnesium via IV alleviates. Fluoroquinolonechelatw (bind) magnesium in the gut and turn it into an insoluble complex that is excreted. This has left me with a severe me with a severe intracellular magnesium deficiency, causing the kidneys to dump potassium. Plus there is a flooding of calcium due to the NMDA receptor excitotoxicity. This is causing the edema that is leading to the death of muscle in my foot and is leading to the dysregulation of BPM (spiking and diving wildly ) and the sinus tachycardia. Gotta go bc just giving urine sample. Terrified. @KPMemberService I wrote Kaiser chairman into the wee hours. This must be forwarded to his office urgently and immediately because I am a highly rational 60-year-old woman trying to save the muscle in my foot and avoid the continuation of dangerous, life-threatening cardiac symptoms. I was up till three or so in the morning writing a science backed memo demanding Kaiser administration reverse the administrative memo prohibiting doctors from prescribing it— doctor who deemed it safe and necessary to provide me with magnesium orders and (2nd dr who needed to ck w nephrology) have gotten the OK from nephrology to do so. Administrative side of doctors orders is outrageously harmful and not allowed by law. I need the IV magnesium urgently to save my ability to stand and just decrease his cardiac symptoms which it has done each time I’ve gotten an infusion. Bpm remained more steady throughout the day than it has been but with bouts of FQ driven neuropathy -driven dysautonomia driven sinus tachycardia. Like 113 BPM while seated calmly on my couch.
