@drsanjoykumar @Parody_RCGP @nottsinquiry Dear Dr Kumar. Your strength, dignity & advocacy is inspiring. In formulary for this area, oral antipsychotics are all amber/specialist initiation only, just like the rest of the country. “GP to kindly” is not a clinical review. The LMC, ICB and MH trust CEO would surely agree?

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

Today’s episode of #bbcConorCure on illegal GLP-1 inj included interview between @xandvt and @MHRAgovuk rep. Ended with statement that only a licensed, registered doctor can prescribe them. Could you consider a correction on iPlayer to acknowledge non-medical prescribers?

@bbcemt Blaming a GP again with absolutely no context of what drug they allegedly didn’t monitor is a glaring omission from your story. It is unnecessarily alarmist and detracts from the important message this woman is campaigning to get across. I wish her well and continued good health

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@BBCNews please re-edit this poorly written article. To blame a GP for allegedly not monitoring a drug, then not bother to put details of that very drug in the article to give context is alarmist & detracts from the important story this woman has to tell.

@mgtmccartney Just discussing this the other day. The onus is on primary care to flag any fibs the pt has told private provider??

@martinrbanks Thought so too. I suppose we have to take the rub of the green after Morgan clear out last week!

And guess what? Andre is trending on Twitter right now. Castle has trended before but for all the wrong reasons.

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

#bbcwimbledon Andrew Castle on commentary with Andre Agassi: Castle couldn’t WAIT to get a mention in of Steffi Graf. After all, he is the king of sycophantic cringe and the need to name-check every celebrity, their spouse, children and dog. Please leave it to Andre and Tim 🙏

@medicosmcqs @drkeithsiau How come PPIs don’t at least reduce the gastritis symptoms slightly? I don’t understand the mechanism that causes them to make it worse. Can you point me in direction of some references?

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@o0FrankenMush0o She performed Scrambled Eggs. The track was total madness and not what I normally listen to at all!

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@BAUSurology @ProstateUK @thetimes @vishhanchanale @rylance_amy Eagerly read the FAQs to find all the evidence you mention? It’s all about the deterrent effect on the need for DRE. Where is the evidence that shows the false negatives are not a concern?

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@mgtmccartney Is that the usual turnaround time ? Is it proportional to the impact factor of the journal? 🤔

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@DrSdeG Another top tip is for Imodium Melts - B&M and Home Bargains sell a cheap generic as well as normal affordable capsules.

And I also tell them about all the brands of fexofenadine 120mg in supermarkets over summer - seen lots of offers and makes it affordable

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@DrSdeG Didn’t know either. Thanks!

I’ll pass on the info to pts if they ever have an emergency and forgotten tabs on holiday or run out.

That’s how try to phrase it when pts won’t buy Loratidine/cetirizine and insist on supply as on free Rxs

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@DrJPGannon @dave_dlt Eh?? Secondary care does not fully staff ALL wards and open OPD clinics over the 4 day break. Hospital staff do on-calls and are paid extra for doing so - as they should. Until the whole system switches to a 7day model, don’t take pot shots. Compare apples with apples at least

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

@Parody_RCGP @DrJPGannon @dave_dlt 🙌🏼

[Verna Wallroth @VernaWallroth]

⁦@BBCNews⁩ could you at least use a photo of an actual brown preventer inhaler (as you call it) and not a blue reliever? NB preventers come in lots of colours, not just brown https://t.co/tHjopbnZVh
