Lady Lovely interLocks, MD

#orthotwitter #medtwitter Well, sir, it’s been years since your total shoulder & everything seems like it’s going very well. You have no pain, & great strength & range of motion. X-rays are stable, & there’s no signs of infection. The Bacterium Formerly Known As P. acnes:

@SAGES_Updates Didn’t let the chloraprep dry long enough, huh?

We swear this wasn't our fault.

Not sure how much I’ll use it, but I had to create a new 🟦sky account (efforts at anonymity = I forgot my password & didn’t have a backup) I’ll now be there as lady-interlocks. Will try to find as many of you as possible there too.

@DrSandman11 “Get the stapler!”

@SChipknee Kinda makes you wish for the days when folks would just be happy with a healthy baby, no matter what it was, huh?

Watching election coverage right now feels like refreshing the EMR to see if the labs you literally just sent are back. Like, yeah, I knew the Hb was going to be 8, but what’s the white count? Is the INR going to be 1.5 or 15?

@SChipknee …like the something-explodes-and-catches-everything-on-fire part?

@LadyInterlocks More like a gender reveal

Well obviously he’s hitting it out of the park. That’s just some kid who says “Shazam!” right before he goes up to the plate

Some kids have BFFs. Some kids have BBFFs. Some kids have both (or at least they do according to the peds patient who said I was their “BFF” while waking up from sedation for a fracture reduction)

@marklewismd “This great sharing of knowledge and experiences will surely lead to greater acceptance of differing viewpoints and harmony among different peoples!” “If only it were so simple”

“And it shall be the greatest change in communication since the Gutenberg press” “Messaging as quickly as the swiftest steed?” “Yes, they shall have instant access to all the world’s information” “And will they read like scholars?” “No, they will exchange pictures of a hippo”

“That patient has bedbugs”

Diagnosis: infected nonunion with failure of fixation. Treatment: resection of nonviable tissue with deep implant removal, interpositional allograft, and revision fixation.

@DrSandman11 It’s just crazy what a SELECTION of tweets about BIAS have been showing up on my timeline (which is full of doctors, scientists, & other nerds I’ve chosen to follow)

I find it mildly offensive that 90s music is now the background music in airports. #ifeelold

@Davembmd YOU DON’T??? What have I been doing all these years???

@Davembmd My clinic & OR schedules are full of people who would argue against other bones being “low maintenance”

@red_red_ryder @jointdocShields Oh we’re aiming for level 4 evidence. Case series don’t need no control group!

@jointdocShields @LadyInterlocks I’m not volunteering for this one. I‘m afraid I’d end up in the control arm and get a store-brand granola bar instead.

In my n of 1, empiric interventional analysis has demonstrated that a Reese’s cup prior to 10am can positively affect mood. However, to achieve sufficient power, additional study is necessary.

@DrSandman11 See, these kind of math skills are why everything is always Anesthesia’s fault

Like, it’s a good concept but not *great* Maybe there’s a plot hole. Or the ending is disappointing. Or the dialogue is just…off. But you just know you’d end up wasting 2 hours on a Saturday afternoon thinking, I guess it might’ve worked with different casting?

Do you ever watch a trailer for a direct-to-streaming movie & think, “wow that could be really good” but know deep down that you’ll never actually watch it bc there’s a reason it’s on Netflix & not in theaters? That’s what it feels like going on dating apps in your 30s
