Ericka SimoneHey #doctormastodon. #medicalmastodon.
Okay. It’s my knee. Just number 2. What did I break now. Sigh.
Matt HodgkinsonAs recently as 30 years ago, the GMC (the UK's medical regulator) was still investigating gay doctors due to their sexuality. The GMC is finally apologising.

🦠 Despondent In Dystopia 😷Question for #MedMastodon #medicalmastodon :
Is there a database to log post -COVID symptoms or sequelae that can be used for assessment or pattern recognition? I know there's things like VAERS for vax side effects, but what about things after illness?
Example: I'm 3.5 weeks past my negative test after 3 weeks of positive tests. I'm experiencing strange sensations throughout my body, like, you know that feeling when your stomach is churning? It feels like that, but throughout my whole body... like a "flutter/churn" thru my extremities and torso. The sensation can only be described like how those (somewhat inappropriate-looking) water wiggle snake toys from the 90s felt in your hand, but thru my whole body.
Allen StenhausGlucose & other nutrients carried in the blood enter the brain. Waste products are carried out of the brain into cerebrospinal fluid surrounding the brain & spinal cord. Those waste products enter the bloodstream to be deposited into your colon.
If something was limiting CSF flow, would that not slow the flow of glucose into the brain? After all, can't put more passengers on the train until some get off.
#MedicalMastodon, is this is a reasonable understanding of this process?

Matt PritchettIf anyone has anything from #ScienceMastodon #Medical_Breakthroughs #MedicalMastodon etc with news about #fibromyalgia #LongCovid #CFS #ChronicFatigueSyndrome please share it with me.
I'm absolutely sick & tired of feeling like a freight train has run me over daily. Thanks.
nadin brzezinskiThanks to @Jallaj1 we have more info of what is happening in Russia re #Influenza. Some of this does match the 1918 strain to a T. I wonder when they will scream at #WHO? A thread with raw data via #Telegram
The conditions of the Russian army are conducive to pandemic level transmission. Also, it’s not clear if this is #SARS, #SARSCOV2. Two different virus. Of note, they also mention #H1N1, same influenza strain of 2012, and 1918. #MedicalMastodon, way too many red flags and I wish their health service was clearer. Here is the post
