@DrCWDavidChang @MizzouENT So true. And insects are a good protein source.

Dr. Thiessen rightly points out that there’s cockroach in your preground coffee. @MizzouENT #2018IARAAOA

She left with new script for epi! I feltly slightly guilty for getting on her for not having her epi with her, but I think she understands how important it is now. And I couldn’t help it! Always keep epi with you!

Please remind your family, friends, and patients with food allergies to always carry auto injectable epinephrine! Yesterday I had a tree nut allergic patient have an episode of anaphylaxis in my waiting room because she ate a protein bar that had walnuts in it.

[Christine Franzese, MD, FAAOA @CFaaoa]

My great nurses rushed her to a room to help her, got me, we gave her epinephrine. “Where is your epi?” I asked her. At home, and expired. My nurse says “you’re at an allergy clinic, you’re really lucky.” In the end, after time, she did fine. But

Canadian Society of Allergy and Clinical Immunology (CSACI) strongly discourages the practice of food specific IgG testing for the purposes of identifying or predicting adverse reactions to food https://t.co/3ph80UYCIk @allergydoc4kidz @IgECPD @DrAnneEllis

AAAAI support of the EAACI Position Paper on IgG4 against foods: it is neither possible nor appropriate to use serum antibody tests to diagnose food allergy in the absence of a good history & possible challenge testing

An interesting talk exploring the importance of #allergy diagnosis in selecting patients for #immunotherapy by Stephen Durham (UK) at @EAACI_HQ allergy school on #Aerobiology and #pollution. #EAACIAS18

This is shameful and should be illegal. I just experienced this with one of my patients who faced a mandatory 80$ medication copay regardless of what drug. I sat down with her and GoodRx, went over meds she needed. Printed coupons for her. Sent her to the cheapest place. Cash pay https://t.co/zNyUFIstsR

So true and these are not always easy to do. Particularly the first. It’s very common when hearing a viewpoint you disagree with, instead of listening, you start to organize counter arguments in your head. Recognize this. Stop it when it happens. Listen. https://t.co/2jk02IPpqK

As a leader more you understand others views the better you can frame the conversation. #activelistening @WCMhpr @CornellMBA

@docwock Well done. This is part of self care. Also these apps can be addicting. I’m try to teach my daughters responsible phone use, doesn’t help if I’m glued to it, so I’ve been limiting my use as well.

[Christine Franzese, MD, FAAOA @CFaaoa]

Very true. History must correlate to test findings for positive tests to be meaningful. https://t.co/CVEJNvgwLe

As I tell my patients who have no sense of smell, check the batteries on your smoke detectors when you change your clock for daylight savings time. That’s this weekend!

[Christine Franzese, MD, FAAOA @CFaaoa]

@docwock Definitely. I can’t go to COSM but I’ll be in Atlanta for academy, let’s meet up

@docwock Nothing’s more important than hanging with the peeps!
