I popped by the @bloodcancer_uk stand at #EBMT24.
Their updated โEating well with blood cancerโ booklet has flown off the stand. Iโm privileged to have contributed to this resource, including updated information on Food Safety Guidelines. Link in comments!

Donโt underestimate the importance in accurate reporting of stool charts๐ฉ
It helps with assessment of tolerance of treatment, medications, hydration, nutrition and need for PN. @TheEBMT@imperialcollege

Very interesting to hear how different the experience of stem cell transplant is for people with sickle cell disease, compared to those with malignant diseases. #EBMT24
Yesterday I said goodbye to the wonderful @SBH_Dietitians. Iโm so fortunate to have been part of this team for the last 2.5 years in my first #HaematologyDietitian role! I miss you all (hence sad photo). @BartsHospital
Very chuffed my my #oscar nomination as a #HaematologyDietitian at @BartsHospital
