1/2 Pt today wanted me to refill her compounded tirzepatide (prescribed by another Dr.) I told her they aren’t supposed to do that after FDA ruling. She wanted me to call pharmacy so I did. Pharmacist said she can still get it but I would need to choose glycine or niacinamide to the tirzepatide

The Signal debacle is what happens when you hire people for high level positions who look the part, but don’t have the experience, who talk the talk, but can’t walk the walk. We have & will continue to see this play out in our healthcare system to the detriment of people’s lives #medsky #sciencesky

The New York Times is the first to put out comprehensive estimates on the cost of a year without U.S.A.I.D. and they’re higher than I thought: - 1.65 million deaths from AIDS - 500,000 from lack of vaccines - 550,000 from lack of food aid - 290,000 from malaria - 310,000 from TB

@drjengunter.bsky.social ‘s terrific new article on substack re: facts about “bioidentical” hormones & why you should save $$ & skip compounded hormones in favor of FDA approved options for menopausal hormones. This includes hormone pellets #medsky #menopause vajenda.substack.com/p/misinforma...

This might seem like it impacts only the students at o e program at one school. But make no mistake, this should be horrifying to anyone in medicine/science. This is only the beginning. #medsky #sciencesky

Same. However these same parents are now full on MAGA boomers. Would they have still given their 3 children vaccines now? #vaccines #medsky

Does anyone remember Robert Smigel’s @saturdaynightlive.bsky.social cartoon, The Ex-Presidents of United States? Gist is they would come in & solve crimes & help US citizens with their “super powers”. My question is: where are the current ex-presidents? Why aren’t they helping us? #comics

Sadly, even just this news interferes w/ veteran healthcare HCPs & staff, many of whom are vets like my VAMC dept chief husband, are understandably worried about their jobs & how these cuts will kneecap their ability to provide care👇👇👇 #medsky #veterans #heathcare apnews.com/article/vete...

Any psychologist or psychiatrist (or former abused spouse) will tell you that President Zelensky gave a master class today on how to deal with a malignant narcissist. He is an amazing man. We can all learn from him.

Shocking how many people love to speak w/such authority on things they know nothing about. More & more thing they know nothing & yet feel free to spread lies about is medicine. I was going to comment that he hasn’t even played a doctor before, but, alas… 👇👇👇 MedSky

Yep. Vaccines to the rescue again. For the vaccinated. Remember you can still get the Gardasil HPV vaccine up to age 45. It also protects against heads and neck and anal cancer too. MedSky ScienceSky #vaccines #cancer www.pbs.org/newshour/hea...

Another day, another call to @repdavid : Those of us with underlying conditions like #autoimmune & #immunodeficiency deserve the right to get updated flu & covid vaccines in the fall. Period. Politics have no place in medicine. MedSky #vaccination

We w/underlying conditions have most to lose from this. Every new flu/Covid infxn inc my chance of further lung damage. If you’ll be impacted by not receiving updated flu/covid vax in fall call congressperson & say politics has no place in medicine #chronicillness #longcovid #autoimmune MedSky
