RE: https://mastodonapp.uk/@Silversnapples/116564158962069826
As far as I am aware, #NHSScotland has *declined* to grant Palantir access to patient data. Can anyone confirm?

‘It’s OK to Ask’ – empowering people in Scotland to get the most out of every healthcare appointment

Good morning fellow Mastos and hello Thursday. Good news yesterday, our friend Peter is having a care package sorted out and is coming home soon!👍#NHSScotland
I'm off to Buckie today. MrsD is having her legs waxed, and toe nails done. She can't put shoes on until it hardens so I'm driving. Wesley was due a haircut today in Buckie but they had to postpone for a week. Bummer! (With a gg!)
Have a great day. Have fun, take care.

GPs warn a £290m funding gap threatens the future of NHS Scotland - BBC News
"the funding which GP practices receive for every patient has been eroded year after year against inflation since 2008"
Now add in the extra NI payments, too. That's the UK gov robbing Peter to pay Paul.
90% of patient contact is through GPs and *that's* why it's a part of the NHS you need to support first.

What do you think will happen if Labour gain control of NHS Scotland for five years?

Just listened to the most distorted report on BBC Radio Scotland about waiting times in #NHSScotland causing additional deaths. No, Helen Puttick people in Scotland do not celebrate more people dying in England, but they are grateful to have the UK's best performing #NHS here.

PSA for any trans person on a gender clinic waiting list in England, Scotland, or Northern Ireland considering a move to Wales
The Welsh Gender Service (WGS) will take into account the time you've already spent waiting on another gender clinic's waiting list 🏴
How do we know this?
We emailed the WGS back in November 2023, asking whether we'd have to join the back of the queue at the WGS if we moved to Wales. Their response is shown in the image.

In Boots buying antihistamine tablets. Told I could get them as a free over the counter prescription, even though they were only a few quid. Bet you don’t get that in England! #NHSScotland💙

PSA for any trans person getting feminising gender-affirming hormone therapy through the NHS
Most NHS gender clinics across the UK have heavily restrictive oestradiol (estradiol; E2) target ranges, which are not in line with international best practice or guidance 😮💨
Some target as low as 200 to 400 pmol/L (54 to 109 pg/mL).
Many target an arbitrary, narrow 400 to 600 pmol/L (109 to 163 pg/mL) range.
Only a couple are more in line with international guidance, using a wider 350 to 750 pmol/L (95 pg/mL to 204 pg/mL).
If you test above their range, they will typically reduce your E2 dose, even if you feel better with a higher E2 level.
As such, it is always morally justified to take steps to make your E2 level lower when they demand a blood test to stop your dose being lowered :TransHeart: ✊
Edit: This post about E2 ranges from NHS GICs is from 2021, but given how glacially the NHS moves, it's probably still accurate.

Huge thanks to #NHSTayside for my 9th Covid vaccine this morning. Very efficiently done, and I'm extremely grateful for the protection, even if my #autoimmune neuro disease sadly flares dramatically for 3 months after every #Covid #vaccine (yes my doctors know and we agree I keep getting them). Having had Covid 3 times in recent months I want the protection too much not to take my offered vaccines. Thanks to the #NHS. I'm severely #immunosuppressed, hence so many vaccines. #Tayside #NHSScotland

Booked in for my 9th #Covid #vaccine by #NHS #Tayside. I get so many because I'm severely #immunosuppressed. Covid vaccines have all so far triggered 3 month long #autoimmune #neurological illness #flares for me. Extremely hard to cope with. But I need my protection more. I'm lucky to generate #antibodies. #neuro #NHS #NHSScotland

My husband took a #photo of my weekly main pill pot last night as he was filling it. Says he liked the colours! These are just some of the #pills I have to take each day throughout the week. Thanks to #NHSScotland I get these and other medical treatment free of charge. I don't even pay for #prescriptions. #NHS #PublicHealth #Medicine #Drugs #Scotland

Anyone in the Fort William/Lochaber area this Sat? Rally on the High St, FW at 11am. We're using a bit of people power to tell the Scottish Government that the long-awaited new Belford Hospital must go ahead. We've waited too long for this to go back on the back burner whilst budgets are reassessed...

Back home from my second (last dose) #shingles #vaccination at the #Dundee Vaccination Centre in the city centre. Huge thanks to #NHS #Tayside staff and volunteers again. I qualify for the shingles vaccine this year because it's being extended to severely #immunosuppressed people aged 50+. Very grateful. #vaccine #NHSScotland #NHSTayside

Got a letter for my first of two #shingles #vaccines. Severely #immunosuppressed people aged over 50 are being offered them from this year. An unpleasantly early appointment time, but at least the city centre should be fairly quiet. The appointment is for early January. Thanks to the #NHS #NHSScotland #NHSTayside #vaccine

Latest #Covid (my 8th) and #flu (umpteenth) #vaccines acquired. Huge thanks to the friendly and efficient #NHSTayside staff and volunteers at #Dundee city centre #vaccination centre. Immensely grateful to get this, as someone who is severely #immunosuppressed. And is now thankfully generating antibodies. #NHS #NHSScotland

Broken #tooth safely extracted. Enormous thanks to my fab #NHS #dentist who came in on his day off to do this for me today. Hoping for trouble free healing, and no #bisphosphonate / #osteoporosis drug related complications. But all good so far. Going back to sleep soon #neuro hopefully. And yes there was a crack running straight down the tooth as we could see after it was removed. #dental #dentistry #NHSScotland

#Shingles #vaccination is being rolled out in the #UK to include anyone over 50 who is severely #immunosuppressed. So I can expect that this year too. Joy. Here is the Scottish Chief Medical Officer letter about it. Similar arrangements are being made in other parts of the UK. A non live #vaccine is to be used this time. https://www.sehd.scot.nhs.uk/details.asp?PublicationID=7924 #NHS #NHSScotland #Scotland #Shingrix
