I’m not a COVID doc I just recently went it a presentation on available long COVID resources and was impressed with how much was out there. Still a frustrating condition without a quick fix, though.
@CBCEyeopener That guest wasn’t familiar with AB. There are actually a fair amount of long COVID resources for Calgarians. Individuals can call this phone line for advice (it’s like 811 for COVID) and there are clinics at PLC and RGH family MD can refer to https://t.co/OIQ7H5atBH
@CBCEyeopener Go Flames from #yql! I see a lot of Flames car flags down here but there are full businesses and trucks decorated for Oilers so I suspect it’s pretty split here, too (disclosure: I lived in yyc 5 years before moving here)
@blondemedSJW Lol everyone on here being like “well if you don’t introduce yourself as doctor it isn’t clear…” as if every lady doctor doesn’t start every single interaction with something like “Hi I’m Dr. Page, your surgeon”
@KevinCChiang Sorry to hear and this is unsolicited advice, but as a Canadian Ortho I ended up a PGY-89 before I got a job. I realized the first 3 days of a new rotation ALWAYS sucked. Then, often, it got better. Those times when you are abandoned lead you being a bad-ass when you get through
@kaylee_des_og Yikes, Kaylee. I’m really sorry to hear this. Wish I had some advice to offer, but I do not. So glad you’re connected with a coveted spot a a long COVID clinic, though.
Some time ago, @JamesLubowitzMD wrote a fantastic editorial in @ArthroscopyJ "asking" if @NEJM was biased against arthroscopic knee surgery.
Fast forward & this article was published which adds nothing to the literature in regards to Achilles tear management, but was published.
@LethbridgeCity @_grizzly660 @lethnewsnow@MayorHyggen@CBCReporters It has been 2 years. Two years we have been living beside a landfill and now a fire risk. At a minimum, clean up the garbage! My son plays next to the filth in his own backyard.
Refresher of Feb 28’s activities. Burnt out garage remains untouched, full of new trash from people who have been in and out. Ready to collapse and kill someone.
