Med twitter…anyone got a good patient resource/leaflet/website on non specific abdo pain…

Thinking in clinic or acutely it would good to give people tips to follow to distract from pain/breathing excervises etc. to help them feel empowered to self manage…?

@SotonHannah_EBC @pier_network Looking forward to joining in! Is there coffee before starting or do I need to caffeinate prior!

[TheDoctorsKing @DoctorsKing]

@StuartBroad8 - a great career and what a series to go out on! Hopefully you have some more antics to come in this match…

Any plans for retirement? I think you’d be a brilliant advocate for #neonatal services to show how #premature babies can rise to the very top! 6️⃣0️⃣0️⃣➕

1 in 13 babies born in the UK are premature.

For #WorldPrematurityDay our preterm baby👶 went swimming 🏊‍♀️, had a glorious walk in the countryside🍁, and made some good weaning progress🥗… All before screaming for a couple of hours and posing peacefully for this photo!

@ThatsSoVillage A toss up between our opening bowling turning up directly from Morris dancing, in kit with bells and all… Or one of our batsmen putting a plastic chair on the pitch as he fielded at long on so he could rest between deliveries…

[TheDoctorsKing @DoctorsKing]

@McMcMenemy Despite being the batsman left stranded at the other end, your enthusiasm and delight at getting that wicket was great to see 👍
