Absolutely gutted. It's such a kick in the gut to feel like you did everything right and still watch a patient get worse. #pccm strikes again.

I'll readily admit I'm getting older but I definitely feel old when perusing the snacks in the lounge today and I said "oh yeah the chocolate covered raisins sound really good" 🤦‍♂️

Getting an office tea kettle for afternoon tea was a 10/10 decision. Perhaps the brits are on to something.

Shout out to @onyxcoffeelab.bsky.social and their Onyx Tealight black tea. Absolutely in love with it.

Just finished Water Moon by Samantha Yambao. Very enjoyable escapist fantasy. Felt like reading a Studio Ghibli film. Recommended for anyone who wants to get away in an easy read. #booksky

I need something non political in my life. If you agree here’s a video of a dude getting swallowed by a whale (and then spit out. He’s fine)

I had atrocious GERD last night to the point my vocal cords were just bathed in acid. I had persistent refractory coughing fits with near post tussive emesis and syncope. I am 90% this is karma for complaining about seeing chronic cough in my clinic so much lately. 🤦‍♂️ ok universe, fair play.

So if I want to get my patient off neutropenic precautions, check the diff in the pm. 👍👍
Did you know that ANC fluctuates throughout the day due to circadian rhythms?

This diurnal variation can cause falsely low ANC values, possibly affecting clinical decision-making. Let's dive in a bit 👇

I have never had Korean bbq and walked away disappointed. It’s always the right call.

Reading wind and truth and unfortunately started the last big section of the book at 9pm. Which meant I finished the last section of the book at 2am. 🤦‍♂️
