Decades of neuroscience research on the ketogenic diet have shown that it:
- changes neurotransmitter systems
- decreases brain inflammation
- alters calcium channel regulation
- improves mitochondrial function
- increases mitochondrial biogenesis (1/13)
Obviously, this can have powerful healing effects for individuals with mental and neurological disorders. (2/13)
So if you start a ketogenic diet, how long until you see improvements? Well, just like medications, it doesn't generally work overnight. (3/13)

Went for a routine test. Tech’s son had #POTS. Showed her my compression socks. But not everyone wants to chat about health, right? So I asked if she wanted to hear more… (1/)
Her: “We know NOTHING! My Kaiser insurance sent me to this MLM, timeshareish scam & told my son to “tell himself he’s safe” when his heart rate increases.”

“They asked lifestyle stuff but he eats healthy & exercises already. They said symptoms were ‘normal for him’.” (2/) #CBT
When she said ‘nothing’ she meant NOTHING, folks. Nothing about compression socks, nothing about recumbent exercise, nothing about avoiding high carb meals, nothing about increasing water intake, nothing about meds. Just patient-blaming CBT & eat more salt. (3/) #POTS

1/9 Wenn Post Exertionelle Malaise #PEM nicht verstanden oder gar "anerkannt" ist, steht bei #MECFS rasch die übliche #GET #CBT #KVT Idee im Raum:
Ein (psycho-) therapeutisches Vorgehen, das"Schritt für Schritt", oder "stufenweise" die Möglichkeiten der Belastung steigern soll.
2/9 Warum dieses Vorgehen so gefährlich ist? Weil jede einzelne (!) Überschreitung der individuellen Belastungsgrenze zur womöglich BLEIBENDEN Verschlechterung führen KANN. Das Verständnis, dass die Rechnung für die Belastung zeitverzögert kommt, ist also von größter Bedeutung.
3/9 Gehe ich im "Hier und jetzt" bereits an spürbare Grenzen,ist die Gefahr von #PEM besonders hoch-zugleich ist ein Crash dennoch keine Gewissheit.Das ist die Unberechenbarkeit von PEM. Mit einem Kind entstand das Bild:

#RBT countries understand "saving clause" to protect the internal tax base. Bc of @citizenshiptax + #FATCA US uses "saving clause" to BOTH PROTECT internal tax base + EXPAND tax base by claiming people with @taxresidency in other countries as US taxpayers. taxconnections.com/taxblog/croati…
Both OECD + UN Treaties include a "saving clause" which "saves" right of a country to tax its "residents". All countries (including the US) make "residency" a sufficient condition for @taxresidency. Only the US has @citizenshiptax. Hence, "saving clause" speaks only of residents.
The evolution of the "saving clause" found in US Tax Treaties is VERY (really) interesting. Watch how they become tighter over time. Here is paragraph 3 of Article 4 of the 1973 US Romania Tax Treaty. It applies to (1) "residents" (as defined by treaty) and (2) "citizens".

Almost all victims of the US extraterritorial tax AKA @citizenshiptax regime (enforced by #FATCA) agree that the practice of the US defining @taxresidency based on the "status" of citizenship alone must end. The plea is: End @citizenshiptax (enforced by #FATCA) and adopt #RBT.
When an organization or individual says they support #RBT or a political party includes #RBT in their platform, you must ask EXACTLY what do they mean by #RBT (Residence-based taxation)? Does their proposal leave citizenship in any way relevant to @taxresidency, #FATCA or #FBAR?
Do advocates of #RBT mean simply supporting a kinder more gentle (Eritrea style) of @citizenshiptax or do they mean making citizenship irrelevant to @taxresidency? Would #Americansabroad still remain US tax residents or do they cease having US @taxresidency for all purposes?

I'm so proud of this gorgeous, inspiring, short film. In honor of #PainAwarenessMonth do yourself a BIG favor and take a few min this morning to watch. @BostonChildrens @takecareus @TheComfAbility #PainCounts

@TheComfAbility made this in collaboration with the @takecareus, a non-profit healthcare initiative that pairs award-winning filmmakers with healthcare leaders to flip the script on how we talk about health. @maydayfund @US_ASP @US_Pain #ChronicPain #chronicillness #Pediatrics
Why did I do it? Most people don't realize that pain is both a physical and emotional experience. That's why #CBT is such an important part of treatment. We need to spread the word because #MentalHealthMatters

@AccidentallyUSC @ConnecterIO @SEATNow_org "Uniting and organizing" assumes commitment to a principle that will allow all Americans to live ordinary lives. The ONLY thing that solves the problems of all people, all the time under all circumstances is ending @citizenshiptax -severing US citizenship from US @taxresidency.
@AccidentallyUSC @ConnecterIO @SEATNow_org @CitizenshipTax @TaxResidency As long as #Americansabroad think in terms of solving "their problem" rather the "the problem" change is not possible. Everybody supports some specific change that helps them but leaves other problems intact. H.R 6057 - which helps some people - is a most insidious example.
@AccidentallyUSC @ConnecterIO @SEATNow_org @CitizenshipTax @TaxResidency .@SEATNow_org was formed to educate and encourage people to unite under principle of ending @citizenshiptax - severing citizenship from @taxresidency. Truth is that most people/groups are NOT committed to this principle. They want their problem solved and don't care about others.

In 21st century the most interesting thing about a person is his/her @TaxResidency. For UK residents "non-dom status means #territorialtax! For UK doms there is #worldwidetax and #RBT. For US citizens there is #worldwidetax, @CitizenshipTax and #FATCA. theguardian.com/politics/2022/…
.@TaxResidency is often confusing and often has a huge impact on ones life. In simple terms, you are a #taxresident of a country which has the right to impose the full force of its tax rules on you. This is different from HOW and on WHAT sources of income tax residents are taxed.
What income is subject to taxation: Terms like "worldwide taxation" (wherever the income is earned) and "territorial taxation" (income earned only in the country) describe HOW and ON WHAT income #taxresidents are taxed. These terms do NOT describe @TaxResidency (who is taxed).

"In Australia, the #RACGP continues to recommend that GPs prescribe #GET and #CBT for ME. Fatigue clinics continue to operate, risking continued harm to ME patients and people with other post-viral illnesses, including #LongCovid" #mecfs tinyurl.com/4x2eshha
"What I didn’t know at the time, was that ME patients were fighting to interrogate the notion that #GET and #CBT – were effective.
"It turns out, a group of psychiatrists in the UK had altered the evidence in the major scientific study advocating the use of GET and CBT for ME, changing the thresholds for what counted as recovery."

“He didn’t respond to my message, he must be ignoring me!”

Isn't it irrational to make definitive assumptions, when it is impossible to know with certainty, what other person thinks?

Thoughts like these are "Cognitive Distortions"

So,
What are Cognitive distortions ❓
-Automatic and self-reinforcing irrational thought patterns
-Self-statements that are either mildly misinterpreted or entirely inaccurate
If left unchecked, they can become stuck in negative feedback loops of unhealthy thinking.

Types of #CognitiveDistortions include:

Trigger warning- Will try keep this short. Uncovering the scale of medical gaslighting and corporate corruption. Who teaches our doctors to dismiss medically unexplained symptoms as hysteria?

She also developed the GAS-light model as way of determining which treatments were worth trialling ie cost effectiveness - gauging effectiveness based on patient set goals for graded assessment. If we set the goals, its not on them if the treatments aren't effective, it's on us. ImageImage

This statement supposedly from RCs does not represent my views as a Clinical Advisor to the @rcgp. I find it utterly inappropriate for it to have been released after the conclusion of the @NICEComms process.
In fact, I'm embarrassed on behalf of my whole profession, who are allowing a small but vocal minority with vested interests (protecting their own careers) to speak on our behalf. In the context of #LongCovid, many more of us now know the truth about #MECFS.
@doctorasadkhan
#MECFS and #LongCovid are not going to be cured by some exercise & CBT, no matter how loudly those who offer them to unsuspecting patients scream and throw their toys around. If you think you've cured someone with these treatments MAYBE YOUR PATIENT LIED TO GET AWAY FROM YOU!

1. I've pulled together a list of what I've found are the most helpful questions my service users have found to challenge their unhelpful thinking patterns. A thread. #CBT #CBTworks #Therapy #CognitiveBehaviouralTherapy
2. • Am I being realistic?
• Am I being fair to myself?
• What would I say to someone else?
• How many times has the worst-case scenario actually happened?
• Am I being my own harshest critic?
• Is it all my responsibility?
3. •Am I filtering out the positives and dwelling on the negatives?
• Do I have any evidence/proof of this?
• Is it helpful to think about everything that could go wrong?
• Is it helpful to think like this?
• How might somebody else see the situation?

#longcovid recovery
A thread.
Whilst I write this I'm painfully aware of so many people with #longcovid who are far from recovery but at the same time I want to give hope.
Last September I lost my job as I was too ill to work due to #LongCovid
I was breathless, tachycardic, full of brain fog, and had tinnitus and myalgia. I had pyrexia daily and awful post exertional malaise that would hit every time I tried to do anything.
I went onto discover many of my symptoms were related to the #PoTS I had developed as a consequence of my #covid19 infection.
I started medication and luckily it had a good effect on me, allowing me to slowly build myself up to go back to work as a locum GP.

I was harmed by #CBT/GET not bc I was forced into the torture (aka #MEcfs) Clinics but bc lack of education meant #NHS Dx me w/ Depression as cause of #PEM, #BrainFog & debilitating #Fatigue and was then traumatised by #Psychiatrists who told me I was to blame 1/

@NICEComms is held as the arbiter of evidence based medicine & consensus.
