Currently recruiting participants for my MSc project 'Exploring autistic patient experiences of X-ray examinations'

[Ben Potts @ben_imaging]

Hello, everyone. I'm seeking views from fellow #Autistic, #ADHD, and #AuDHD people. My goal is to ensure my PhD project is driven by community needs and priorities right from the start. If you can spare an hour to help, contact me here or via email (address on the image)
Thanks!

Why is getting a reservation for the Pokemon Center at EUIC more difficult than Eras Tour tickets?

Plain film/general x-ray- is it a special enough to be a specialism?

I urge everyone involved in the assisted dying conversation to read about “Kat”. She had EDS and wanted to live. She needed pain management & palliative care.

She applied for MAiD thinking it would open up treatment options - because an ethical program would do just that. 🧵

This is even more unfair when you consider the extra costs that disabled people face.

Our research shows that disabled people would need and extra £1,010 a month to have the same standard of living as non-disabled people.

Do you fancy working for free for the rest of the year? 🗓️

Well today is #DisabilityPayGap Day.

So that’s effectively what disabled workers will do from today.

A great documentary showing life with Ehlers Danlos Syndrome

[UHNM Charity 🏥 @UHNMCharity]

🎞️ Today, we finally premiered our documentary ‘EDS: The Raw and Honest Truth’.

A huge thank you to everyone that took part and attended the premiere, especially the patients who so bravely described their life living with EDS, to help us tell their stories.

@ben_imaging @Autism @CogNeurothemis @CMalamateniou "Symptoms can be cured" aka forcing autistic people to mask with no concern for the detrimental effects it has on their wellbeing? 😩

"ADHD managed well is associated with brilliance"
Affirming words from Dr James Kustow on On The Mend podcast with @mattjwillis.

Interesting points about inheritability and associated conditions. Highly recommend listening!
