My #GoodNews for today: Good follow up visit with the #cardiologist. All clear from him for upcoming surgeries. He’s happy with how things are going. Phew! Next appointment in a year, we hope.

Then a good Skype session with #MentalHealthNurse.

Also actually managed to use my #Qantas points for something that should be useful for part of my very long wait at Sydney airport on Monday.

Now I’m just hoping for sleep tonight.

The decellularized GHOST HEART is created by stripping living cells from a pig’s heart. Researchers at the Texas Heart Institute hope that one day it could serve as a scaffold upon which to grow a working heart from human stem cells.

“a growing number of studies have shown a link between virus and heart-related problems, particularly among young people.
"We've known for a long time actually that #COVID does affect the #heart through a number of mechanisms," #cardiologist Dr. Christopher Overgaard told CTV's Your Morning on Tuesday. "We know that it can attack the heart directly through inflammation, it can actually increase the ability for your arteries to clot."

Right on cue, just as I lined things up with another #cardiologist, the hospital called me to demand I do the 24 hour blood pressure and Holter monitor they were vaguely suggesting they might put me on back in October. I'll do it to collect data for the new cardiologist but the hospital cardiologist had extremely obviously already decided the problem was that I was fat, not working with her again

Unfortunately, it was still him. Figured maybe it had just been me the time before, & I'd just have to make the best of it. Even tho there are signs all over the building and their office, he and several other staff were unmasked - in my fucking #cardiologist office!!! (I had on my N95, as usual.) We were in one of their very tiny exam rooms, (even a big sign about masking on the back of the door!) and I figured we might be there for some time, so I asked him to please mask. 2/x

@RoverStoker @WillBlackWriter There are literally MILLIONS. The number 1 cause of #bankruptcy in the US is #MedicalDebt. Ambulance services are owned by #VentureCapital firms now. The cost of a trip to the hospital in an ambulance may NOT be covered by insurance unless the company is “#InNetwork”. Consultation with a specialist (#PlasticSurgeon, #OrthopedicSurgeon, #Cardiologist, etc…) in the Emergency Room may not be covered if they are not “in network”.

"#Hospitals across the country are using software powered by #Algorithms with #RacialBiases. (...)

This can cause physicians to #Misdiagnose medical conditions or delay critical treatment.

My innards after a ascending aortic dissection which also killed off my left kidney. A 12 hour surgery, 12 hour coma and 14 units of blood. Now waiting on my 3rd open heart surgery to replace my aortic root, valve and arch. #cardiac #surgery #aorta #CTScan #kidney #heart #cardiology #cardiologist #openheartsurgery

Back from the GP. Great news - although this was his registrar year, he's probably staying on next year! He's a wonderful GP, they have to be treasured.

Also I managed to get my Vitamin D almost up to the recommended levels... but haven't got there yet. Back on the tablets. (My worst was 19, the acceptable number is 50.)

And like so many women my age in Australia, my knee is showing degenerative changes - yes, probably the netball in my youth.

The other pain? Gahhhh, probably #MECFS, #fibromyalgia , #ChronicPain, and #Sjogrens. Maybe.

At least now I know my #thyroid is behaving at the moment.

Now there's just the follow-up with the #cardiologist and the #dietitian to organise.

@carols White was a generation earlier. Your guy's about the same age as Oscar.
I'm just pointing out that "what it took back then to call yourself a #Cardiologist--apparently just reading EKGs" is a pretty broad (and incorrect) conclusion to take from meeting one guy

Twitter continues to be a cesspool. A thread about elderly academics is quite nasty but reminded me of the time I meta 90 year old #cardiology doctor. He was telling me stories about being the first in the area to run stress tests, and what it took back then to call yourself a #Cardiologist--apparently just reading EKGs. So fascinating. Medicine has come so far in one lifetime! #progress

A #cardiologist talks about long term impacts of #covid infection. Please watch. Please mask up.
