  16. RE: oldfriends.live/@paul/11648879

    As always, it's ok to #AMA about my feeding tube. In 2012, after getting my tube and getting no information about how to care for it or use it, I joined social media to advocate and help people, including posting YouTube care and instructional videos. On Twitter, my profile handle was #FeedingTubePaul

    So, whether you need help with one, you or a loved one has been told you need one, you are choking and feel one might be in your future and you are worried, or just curious about 14-years with one, the diet, socializing with it, etc ask me anything. #Medical #FeedingTube #MedMastodon

  17. We had to change out my feeding tube last night and it was the first time doing so since we got the new EN-Fit style tubes. We've been requesting legacy Y-Port tubes so we can use up our supplies. The new tube has a hard silicon ring at the bottom of the balloon tip to prevent a tube from popping out if the balloon that keeps it in burst.

    This means, after you remove the water from the balloon and go to pull it out, it won't come out because the ring is larger than your stoma (hole going from the outside in.) You have to gently tug it out. It's a good idea, esp if you ever had a tube come out and the stoma close up overnight.

    A hundred things went through our minds as to why it wouldn't come out after changing the tube every three or four months for 14-years and it just coming out, sometimes on its own because you have gas in the belly.

    We pretty much hate the new EN-Fit feeding tubes. Everything has to be screwed in, the ports stay nasty, they don't let people with motor control issues to self-administer, etc. #FeedingTube #Medical #MedMastodon

  18. 🚨Urgent!

    You can help get more research funding for Long Covid, ME/CFS, and related illnesses!

    Use the link below to email your senators and ask them to sign on to a "Dear Colleague" letter for FY27 (fiscal year 2027) which calls for "$210 million in Long COVID research funding at NIH, ARPA-H, and AHRQ"

    The deadline for this action has been extended to Monday, April 20!

  25. I need translation for an easier ecosia search.
    How do allistic people describe "nauseous above knee"?
    It's like the 2 or 3 inches above the top of my right kneecap.
    I'm literally only getting separate results for "feeling sick" and "knee / joint pain".
    The area above my kneecap feels nausea. How tf do I research that?

  26. The #clinicalTrial I've been participating in for a revolutionary new #cholera #vaccine has been published in #TheLancet, and the results are excellent.
    thelancet.com/journals/laninf/
    I'm one of the data points in this article. 😉
    The immunity from the new vaccine is so long-lasting that they're extending the study: they asked me to come back again in six months so they can test again to see if I still have immunity.
    It's astonishing how many lives this vaccine will save.

  31. 💡 A genuine surprise: The active ingredient in #Viagra, sildenafil, helps treat a rare genetic disorder! This unexpected finding has now been uncovered by researchers at #CharitéBerlin. The drug showed positive effects on the course of the disease in six patients with #Leigh syndrome. More on the promising results:

  33. "Idk, I think it's less about empathy or compassion, and more about making sure the (hopefully small) group of uncaring people who enter medicine or allied health professions are incentivised to act pro-socially.
    Like, in your region, what studying conditions and working conditions are clinicians expected to tolerate? Do they receive a living wage throughout study and work? Is their livelihood for a single person or big enough they can build a household?

    Do they feel comfortable being a whistleblower when something goes wrong? (Numbers-wise, mistakes will happen over time.)
    How robust is the inspection or regulation? How flexible are the logistics of each sector?
    How many crises at once can be weathered without change to patient care? How long will it take to build back up that 'extra' capacity / contingency margin?

    Who (in what position, in which teams) is responsible (or in what order) for noticing angels of death? What about anyone with less final but still harmful motives?

    How severe are the consequences for failure? How many people feel compelled to hide errors rather than remedy them? What options for remediation are accessible to all staff, including contractors?"

  34. "Wie bleiben wir gesund?" 🤔 Mit dieser Frage beschäftigen sich Prof. Britta Siegmund, Direktorin Medizinische Klinik für #Gastroenterologie, #Infektiologie & #Rheumatologie, und Prof. Andreas Diefenbach, Direktor Institut für #Mikrobiologie & #Infektionsimmunologie, in der nächsten Sonntagsvorlesung der #CharitéBerlin. Dabei im Fokus: der #Darm und seine Mikrobiota.

  39. This sounds like a really interesting book.
    "A HISTORY OF THE WORLD IN SIX PLAGUES: HOW CONTAGION, CLASS, AND CAPTIVITY SHAPED US,
    FROM CHOLERA TO COVID-19."

    It focuses on six disease crises from the 19th century to the present—cholera, HIV/AIDS, the Spanish flu, sleeping sickness, Ebola, and #COVID-19.
