Snark. Mostly covid safety & UK politics. Fibromyalgia. Parent. Hibernophile 💚. exNHS 💙. Exasperated. Exhausted.

I do bang on about fibromyalgia a lot.
After >20 years I feel i’m a veteran with experience and want to explain it to the outside world, largely to warn against complacency with regard to postviral consequences, esp Long Covid.

Five weeks ago this morning we lost Dad.
Still makes no sense, despite his being unwell for a long time, and knowing it was coming.

Life is marching on and am beginning to rejoin it. On some levels feels like a betrayal. I can hear him still “get on with it” would say.

@jamesmurray_ldn I get that they want to hear first hand and take responsibility for a decision themselves based on their own assessment.

But, Interesting that many people see other’s histories as unreliable. Are professionals so mistrusting of each other, or so poor at documenting? Curious.

@HillsBekki15323 @medicalmodelbri @AneurinBevanUHB @CEOabuhb @BBCWales @ITVWales @NewyddionS4C Need a register so an individual can be held liable and struck off.

@COVID19_disease Whether it is or isn’t airborne, another mutation will arise that is. We should be spending this time since covid arose retrofitting our lives with good air filtration and ventilation by design, And educating ourselves against misinformation re disease, mitigation and treatment.

@outbreakupdates By quarantining, Not taking risks therefore that this in fact more likely to human to human transmit that being stated currently.

Meanwhile in USA, quarantining not required.
40% fatality rate with no treatment and no vaccine.
Rolling the dice.

Can’t believe it’s been a week. Time has lost meaning for us just now. How did it not stop entirely?

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

RIP Dad 💔

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@Oxfordite More than enough.
i hadn’t ask you to explain your meaning but your purpose.
Pseudo as it may have been, i withdrew til your comment.
What is it you want here?

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@Oxfordite Deference or defensiveness?
You’re muddling your insults.

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@Oxfordite Not how i believed i meant it. Now questioning.

People took the time to explain.
I apologised. Sincerely.
I walked away.

Your intention with this comment?

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@Oxfordite @ClearThinker66 @Molly2323232323 (Above withdrawn, and apologised)

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@Oxfordite @ClearThinker66 @Molly2323232323 This being IN ADDITION to, and in fact she says “too”.

Anyway, far be it from me to waltz into a private conversation on twitter (that is snark) and try to be helpful. Lesson learned (it’s not, that was also snark).

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@Molly2323232323 @Oxfordite @ClearThinker66 @rcpsych Well, i take it all back then.
Unreserved apologies all around.
because that is exactly why i wanted (poorly and inexpertly but sincerely) to say that you can’t roll up with good “communication skills” and have a nice chat.

I’ll shut up now.

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@Oxfordite @ClearThinker66 @Molly2323232323 My bad. Will crawl back under my rock. Thanks for refereeing (not snark).

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@ClearThinker66 @lascapigliata8 @Molly2323232323 In fact, what i said even more precisely they are absolutely needed in order to make a diagnosis. (Like, how else ?? )

If you seriously want to get all indignant by misunderstanding someone on twitter, don’t do it while going on about communication.

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@ClearThinker66 @lascapigliata8 @Molly2323232323 And where i said “absolutely needed” you read “aren’t necessary “ but you’re an expert in communication?

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@lascapigliata8 @Molly2323232323 Feel better.

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@lascapigliata8 @Molly2323232323 Lying on a couch, and pouring your soul out is rarely for therapy in NHS psychiatry. But done by others.

[🦠Covid is Airborne 😷 Clean the Air ⚙️ @MaplePonds]

@lascapigliata8 @Molly2323232323 They train for (7?) years in neuropsychiatry, neuroimmunology, drug actions, diagnoses, genetics, developmental issues, legalities and I’m sure much more medicine and science.
