@AdamMeakins I caught whooping cough as an adult two years ago from an unvaccinated child…I had been vaccinated as a child though…I have never been so ill and genuinely feel two years later I’m still not the same as I was before 😢

The widespread misinformation around vaccines have very real and very serious consequences! Measles are not benign! Get your kids vaccinated!

@OlayemiKomolaf4 Can’t out run a bad diet

Is it better to eat healthy and not exercise or exercise and not eat healthy?

@Hgr2024 @DrJN_SportsMed Can I ask what the treatment plan looks like please?

@DrJN_SportsMed Great to see! 5 years of sciatic symptoms- deep hip/glute pain and pins and needles/ reduced sensation in my left leg. As a physio it didn’t make sense to me that there was no improvement. An ultrasound recently showed uterosacral endometriosis!

Very interesting! Be aware that endometriosis can mimic MSK pain, including pelvic / gluteal / leg if nerve involvement in lumbopelvis

@Martin_Nekkolai It has changed, its worse, because we don’t get your amusing physio confessions!!

One year since I left physio. Seems fuck all have changed.

@DrJN_SportsMed Don’t knock it until you’ve tried it, might be the holy grail to solve all MAK problems including hip flexor pain?! Make sure it’s the right salt though!!

Woman on the self checkout at M&S (whom i see frequently) - “You’re limping - have you hurt your foot?” “No, i’ve had quite a bad spinal injury & infection” “Have you tried a hot bath with salts?” Now rushing home to get in the bath - fingers crossed

@paulpoker182 @scottygb And that hot drink cups either coffee on have hot contents…it’s a worry

BBC Two is repeating Live Aid and there’s a disclaimer not to donate to the number onscreen given throughout the show. Live Aid was on 40 years ago.

@BillingMartin Yes totally all of the time, like I’m wading through quick sand….very tedious!! I think the dark evenings and mornings are not helping!

Anyone else Just Tired

@DrJN_SportsMed That’s bloody ridiculous but I’ve had a similar case down here! So frustrating 😡

Consent ✅ Uveitis, gluteal pain, bilateral insertional heel pain & PMH & FH of psoriasis 'Rheumatologist' - "doesn't sound inflammatory - could be muscular" I jest not 👀👀👀👀

@Martin_Nekkolai Ah fair enough!!

@csphysiopilates Only the good looking ones!!!

Friday Ex-Physio Confession: I dont miss «bringing my patients home with me.»

@Martin_Nekkolai I’m actually kind of jealous, may have to find something different myself too. Really hope it’s all working out but did live your Friday phsyio confessions too 🤩

Friday Ex-Physio Confession: I really dont miss being told about something that hurts every day.

@DrMarwanAl_D @ChrisLittlew00d I wonder if her oestrogen dose is high enough and what her testosterone levels are like as low testosterone can also have impact on tendon/muscle health

@DrMarwanAl_D @ChrisLittlew00d What sort of HRT and dose is she on? Is she also on testosterone? Is her oestrogen dose high enough?

@physiojack Could I ask if you think a patient may be a candidate for joint replacement would imaging then be appropriate? Thank you ☺️

Have been re-reading NICE guidelines on diagnosis of Osteoarthritis and I really can't fathom why people get stroppy about the x-ray recommendation

@DrMarwanAl_D Really see this a lot in peri and menopausal women, totally agree with the hormonal health

@BillingMartin And expensive for a folded piece of card!!

Anyone else struggle to pick birthday cards Despite there being thousands of them they all seem a bit crap

@AdamMeakins Trying to tell my back pain patients this week you can’t live life in a straight line!!

Life isnt pretty… so train ugly! 😏

@BillingMartin Bashing probably less painful in the long run 🤣

Could anyone confirm or teach me how poor glut and core control is assessed (apparently) or should i just cont to bash my head against the wall instead?

@Washerofpots @KateBurkeNHS Done ☺️

@Washerofpots @KateBurkeNHS This is literally me! What have you found as the right balance of HRT as I haven’t found that yet! Am being told I’m anxious and should try anti depressants!
