The Ratliff family turning their phones back on and finding out Duke somehow lost after being up 6 with 30 seconds left

Had a great time today discussing #pics and #longcovid at @AlamedaHealth internal medicine. Important dialogue on how to adapt our practice to underserved patients. And met some superstar chiefs!! (And shoutout @LekshmiMD for all your help!)

@IlanaKrumm @UCSFPCCMFellows 😂😂😂

“Is DIPNECH real, or is it just fun to say?” Dr. @smcgowgow asking the important questions during our @UCSFPCCMFellows trihospital conference. FYI the consensus answer: “Both” #pulmonary #pccm #MedTwitter

Fun conversation with Sammy McGowan - first-year Fellows in PCCM who undertook a systematic review of racial disparities in the ICU while a resident. Looking forward to following his research career. @sccm sccm.org/LearnICU/Resou…

@just_sando_here @QuinnThanks @HiMyNameSam @LaurenSchaffel @HWSchool Ahhh the best of times ❤️

While I cannot claim to be a #Sondheim expert, I peaked playing Joanne in my high school's production of Company, and I am forever grateful for his singular artistic voice and for sealing this weirdo's deal for good. RIP.

@SouthwestAir Appreciate the apology but I must express my enduring disappointment to have spent over 4hr on hold and paid over $1,000 on last-minute bookings after my family’s two flights were cancelled Saturday and Sunday. We’re longtime SW fans and cardholders and not sure we can continue.

There’s a lot to say about what happened over the last several days, but we’ll start with the most important message: we’re sorry. Cancelling thousands of flights & displacing Customers isn’t what we want for you, nor is it what you should expect from us. swa.is/explanation

How is ECMO allocated and used in practice? Our review found significant variety in who is categorically excluded from consideration, whether a time-limited trial should be discussed and whether patients/surrogates are given the opportunity to stop it: journals.sagepub.com/doi/10.1177/10… 🧵

Must read!! my other half @ari_tolman finally gets to share her work on how incarcerated folks with mental illness are further prosecuted. as a non-sociologist, found this totally understandable and enraging! 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼

@IlanaKrumm 😂😢 that one hits deep 😢😂

Can’t believe Twitter celeb @LekshmiMD is now my APD!! Dreams do come true 💕 💫 Very excited for the work ahead with this crew.

@LekshmiMD @WrayCharles @IlanaKrumm @UWDeptMedicine @UCSF @UCSFPCCMFellows @timdyster @AnjaliJacob_ Can’t wait to join the team!!

6 days left @UWDeptMedicine before moving to San Francisco for 🫁fellowship @UCSF I’m SO excited for this opportunity but also a little sad to be leaving an institution that’s been my home for so long. I need this change to grow as a person & a physician. But change is hard.

I GOT PUBLISHED IN @NEJM y’all! “As a resident, I have seen racist behavior in every clinical rotation. Sometimes I just want to focus on psychopharmacology, but racism calls me and I must answer.” nejm.org/doi/full/10.10…

I mean: top five basketball games I’ve ever watched? Gotta be. My Lord.

Help me here! Why do #INMATES on a #VENT in #ICU get handcuffs? #Delirium too scary. I wrote a medical order to #prison command & had shackles removed. Let’s magnify #dignity & #heal. I won’t forget his “nod” to me. 😔 #humanrights #education #medtwitter #tipsfornewdocs #pulmcc

For no reason in particular, tonight I’m thinking about ophthalmomyiasis, a disease in which fly larvae accumulate underneath the conjunctiva resulting in mucopurulent conjunctivitis...”pink eye,” if you will.

@ERtox @POTUS How can you diagnose someone with steroid psychosis who... sounds psychotic at baseline?

If @POTUS medical team is throwing in the kitchen sink, would be careful with dexamethasone. Steroid psychosis would not be a good thing in this patient.
