@fishstark @BenSasse Doesn’t all of Europe and lots of Asia have this? Where their rate dropped before ours?

All right @BenSasse, let's make a bet. Let's divide the US in half. I'll let you pick which half. In your half, you ban Candy Crush. In my half we institute 16 weeks of paid parental leave, universal childcare, & a restored child tax credit. Let's see which has more babies.

@markkaplan20 TLDR: you had high LDL for years… declined a statin for years… had a heart attack….

I have 12 years of blood work. 7 panels. Every result. Every flag. All leading up to my heart attack at 52. They flagged one marker every single time. LDL cholesterol. The only one they cared about. They missed a different marker flagged 4 times. A marker Dr. Broda Barnes called "the riddle of heart attacks" in 1976. Let me show you what they saw, what they missed, and what nearly killed me. 🧵

@TimBrando Kind words @TimBrando - @CoachSHoltz

Oh at some point I think we all knew we’d be lucky to hold on to Lou and legends like him much longer. So many we’ve looked up to and many I had the honor and privilege of not only covering, but working alongside eventually head to their next life of eternal glory. ✝️🙏🙏My thoughts are with his family, especially my dear friend @SkipHoltz his wife Jen and their extended family. His beloved wife Beth awaits. 💜Coach Holtz has always been a National Treasure. 🏈

Big Pharma told you statins were the only way, but they didn’t tell you about muscle pain, brain fog, and T-killing effects. It’s a trap. It’s time to escape the statin deception. Take control of your heart health with Citrus Bergamot + Berberine. 1… twitter.com/i/web/status/2…

@ATRightMovies Does this include ones despite any so called fly episodes?

@realdocspeaks Stick with Original Medicare when you're eligible so that you can go to any specialist/hospital the PCP who is actually on your side advises.

@chipgaines That clubhouse needs more shiplap

Life long dream come true today!!

@LordStackz @dfw @AmericanAir I was in the air and couldn’t find my connecting tickets QR code yesterday - found that they marked me as no show and canceled the rest of the trip (AND the return side) - no show while ON THE PLANE - IN THE AIR.

My seat that I selected over 3 months ago and confirmed at check-in was switched for no reason and nobody at @DFW or @AmericanAir can tell me why. I chose the seat due to health reasons. I will never fly @AmericanAir again. What a joke.

@EvidenceOpen @SquawkCNBC Thank you Daniel Nadler. I think it’s been a great point of care tool for practice.

@KylesSkyles @sweatystartup Yeah don’t do this

You should research the history of theology first. Staring with the first century through present day. Study Interpolations. Know what those are. Know how they happened. And it's also important to understand, the theology that's mainstream today was just one of a hundreds of different sects. They just happened to be the ones that emerged victorious in the Church power vacuum.

About to read the bible for the first time. Where should I start?

@jolleyness Same. I’m 45 and barely play but kept it because I could handle 14/15 bucks. Not 30. Not for this.

I’ve had Xbox live since it started in the days of Halo 2 and then been subscribed to Xbox Game Pass since it began until now. We are talking close to 23 years here. Today it ends. I’ve cancelled by Xbox subscriptions. Since I pay yearly I have a several months to build a PC. 🫡

@Steelmanmedical @OckhamsRazor4 @DrDiGiorgio The surgeon still wasn’t available

An alternative case scenario available to you and almost everyone—I'll paint the picture of the same one I've walked people through: Employee Bob was fortunate to work for a company fed up with paying huge premiums to a BUCA for fully insured healthcare coverage. It had converted to a self-funded healthcare benefit program (essentially pay-as-you-go with stop-loss insurance to cap costs no higher than the prior BUCA program). The company also had the foresight to directly contract with a Direct Primary Care (DPC) physician group, providing direct access to physicians/same-day or next-day appointments/on-site work clinic hours/discounted labs/discounted imaging/discounted medications/no-cost in-office procedures. This meant every employee enjoyed a long-term relationship with their DPC physician—who knew them well, served as a trusted resource for all medical matters, and was available by phone/text/email anytime. So... right lower quadrant abdominal pain strikes. The patient calls their physician right away on their cell phone (no overnight/weekend/Holiday delay in diagnosis/treatment), getting an order for labs ($10), a same-day office appointment for comprehensive history and physical exam (no charge), bedside screening ultrasound (no charge), confirmatory CT of the abdomen ($250), IV fluids if needed ($8), and IV/oral antibiotics ($20). By skipping the ER waiting room—saving 8–12 hours and a $2,400+ ER bill (more than two years of DPC membership cost)—the patient gets earlier care, when less intense intervention has a better chance of resolving it outpatient, allowing rest and quality nutrition/support for everyone. Same story every single week in Direct Primary Care….the choice for something different is at your fingertips. Now, who's ready to review their employer's claims charges and find out how much lost revenue they gave away to their traditional fully insured BUCA and broker? @DutchRojas @DrDiGiorgio @realdocspeaks @GeBaiDC

This is unfortunately true. Patients get sent to the ER because a CT or MRI would take a few days or weeks. But it need not be this way. Getting a CT or MRI or other workup in an ER is expensive. A doctor who owns his own scanner is cheap. Imagine if your spine surgeon owns his own scanner. You have an issue? Just call the office and they’ll probably open up after hours to get you in and take care of your problem the next day. That’s one ER visit saved. One less bed being taken up for a non-emergency. That’s what ownership does.

@DGlaucomflecken Don’t come for my pyruvate.

Mitochondria didn’t deserve this. Krebs cycle on the other hand…

@be_nMD @DrCasteelEM Correcto

@DrCasteelEM I looked into this years ago and TJC may have changed things since then, but at that time it was related to OSHA requirements for no food or drink around the areas where blood and body fluids are handled. If you mark an area as forbidden for blood or body fluids to be present 1/2

Can somebody explain to me why when im working a shift in the ER, even in my doc box, im not allowed to have any food or drinks in there (per JCAHO)? Like I can’t leave the ER to get food/drinks so often the only option is to bring something, but I have to leave the ER to consume it?! And families can bring McDonald’s and eat it in the rooms? What am I missing here??

@WorkMemesDaily So then they have two years of sick days.

@DGlaucomflecken @JonVillenaMD That makes me so sad for the current time - I’m 2006 grad and we applied to some places and certainly has zero research discussions.

@JonVillenaMD You do know that the average applicant applies to dozens of programs precisely because they cannot choose which program they go to. And the emphasis on research is not the same for every specialty, which doesn’t make it any less of a problem.

Once residency/fellowship applicants can safely acknowledge their lack of interest in conducting research without torching their job prospects, then we will have entered a new utopia with the perfect balance of physicians, scientists, and physician-scientists. It will be beautiful.
