@dr_shibley the wave of misogyny and racism that is headed her way is frightening.

This is a disgusting thing to say in my personal view.

Really hoping to put a bid together for this with @jupiterhouse1 and the amazing frailty team in East Kent.

Anyone any tips for arm pain following COVID jab?. Last time I had a very painful arm for months, couldn't sleep on that side, hurt to lift. No idea why. Might heat help or cold, whilst it's still fresh? 🤔

Cardiovascular disease (CVD) causes around one death every eight minutes in women in the UK. Differences exist between women and men in presentation, outcomes and pathophysiological mechanisms making CVD a more severe disease for women than men. Women who start HRT within 10 years of their menopause have been shown in studies to have a significantly lower all-cause mortality and also lower incidence of coronary heart disease. Women starting body identical hormones at an older age are still likely to gain benefit but the large studies have not been done. Many people do not realise that, unlike for men, treatment for women with statins or ACE inhibitors for primary prevention of CVD do not statistically significantly reduce all-cause mortality or coronary heart disease incidence. HRT is much more a superior treatment for prevention of CVD plus it improves symptoms, improves quality of life and also will reduce future risk of osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes, bowel cancer and clinical depression. Here’s the full report: ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/P…

Hey occupational therapists! Look at this! 😱😂

Dear 🇬🇧, Here’s your weekly reminder that 10 years ago, your NHS was ranked the #1 healthcare system on Earth. You don’t need a new system. You need a new govt that won’t destroy your public NHS to feed a private system. Your family isn’t safe in #ToryBritain. #SOSNHS

@CburyCathedral @DrStaceyRand Saw this on Facebook! Congratulations.
