A thread about listening to & believing patients..

Back in 1996 I told several Drs that I was not getting enough blood to my head.
1/
One said ‘It is not like you are lolling around in the chair is it.’
One said ‘Stop being hysterical.’
One said ‘You would be unconscious if that was the case.’
2/
I was in the hospital lying with my head over the side of the bed to try to stop the horrific ‘deaths’ feeling I had - like my brain was shutting down - I was told to ‘stop it!’

It turns out I was telling them exactly what was wrong with me all along.

This is one of my favorite things to talk about: the intersection of #hcsm and advocacy. Your voice matters! Thanks @SNMA #amec2020 #AMECOnline for the invitation to join this amazing conference. Won’t post the whole talk but wanted to highlight a few real people doing it well.
First off, why should we be on #SoMe as healthcare professionals? We’ve seen the meme, where Karen on Facebook makes a big splash. I updated it to include 2020’s politicians who fuel misinformation. The dialogue NEEDS our voices as sources of credibility and expertise. #amec2020
#SoMe can bring much value for you... H/T to @aoglasser for sharing this paper by @MotherinMed et al. bit.ly/3alzFon

And here’s a snapshot of some of the things that #SoMe has done for ME lately...

#In2019ILearned THREAD

You don’t have to be 💯 ready for a new challenge or role.

In fact, if you’ve already mastered everything you need for that opportunity, you’d be ready to move on the the NEXT one after that.

Stop holding yourself back.

#WomenInMedicine
#In2019ILearned to stop taking other people’s behavior and words personally.

Instead, I try to default to compassion. Generally, people are wonderful and we’re all doing our best. People who try to hurt others are usually hurting inside themselves.

#medtwitter
#In2019ILearned to be more brave and open about my nontraditional career moves.

I was afraid of being misunderstood and judged. Now, I know that many other docs also want a different kind of career, and my choices are nothing to be ashamed of, 🙏 to #medtwitter support.

Burnout. It’s usually not due to some big thing.

Instead, lots of little things fill the plate till it overflows.

EOY - time for an audit/edit:

➡️What to keep doing

🛑What to stop doing

▶️What to start doing

#medtwitter #WomenInMedicine
Do you already do this?
Yesterday, I started my lists for my Start/Stop/Continue audit.

Like many on #medtwitter, I have lots of lists.

I consider personal, work, community, family, etc

AND break each of those down again and again until I’m really looking closely 🔍
For ex, big items on my “work” list:

👩‍⚕️ clinical
👩‍🏫 academic
👩🏼‍💼 industry
🎤 speaking
💻 virtual courses/Rx Series
📊 consulting/BOD
📚 royalties
🏖 TransforMD

What to start/stop/continue? Have to break each down further...

#WomenInMedicine who can relate?

Thread. Been contemplating a lot on this recently. In my researching, it seems like 99% (basically all) of the literature on DOCs or Online Health Communities (OHCs) focuses on how participation benefits health. This has always irked me. 1/x #AcademicTwitter #DOC #dsma #hcsm
I get it. And that makes sense. DOCs and OHCs are important because they DO SOMETHING for folks. It isn’t all good all the time, but overall, people seem to benefit in some way by talking to others like them. By sharing their stories. 2/x
What irks me, is that research has yet to move beyond health implications. And, it isn’t because that’s all that is happening there. It’s because it is what health-researchers care the most about. They're asking the questions, and they're all related to individual health. 3/x

#TrueValuesChallenge Day 2 [thread]
Values guide our decisions, behaviors, and internal harmony.

Most sound great. It's easy to consider one and say 'yes, I value that'.

But values don't have equivalent importance. They are ranked, often subconsciously.
Will you take the #TrueValuesChallenge?

I'll offer you 2-3 very awesome values.

You'll choose just ONE and boldly explain why that one matters most to you.

Tag your #medtwitter #hcsm colleagues!

Review the rules and Day 1 results here: bit.ly/2H2eiwl
Here it is! #TrueValuesChallenge Day 2:

Which of these matter MOST to you?

Reply with an example of how your chosen value shows up in your real life.

Do NOT wimp out and say 'curiosity helps me be decisive' or 'I am decisively curious'.

Be bold. And comment!

Will YOU take the #TrueValuesChallenge?
Each day, I'll offer you 2-3 very awesome values.

You'll choose just ONE and boldly explain why that one matters most to you.

You'll get to know each other and yourself in a whole new way.

I invite you to tag your colleagues so they can join too!

The #ATS2019 dust has settled...here are a few final images highlighting the incredible community, engagement, and reach on social media this year. First, the overall stats. Almost 80 million impressions, 5000 accounts, 24000 tweets. Image
This image shows us:
1. Most tweets include images - we like pictures.📸
2. Most tweets mention other accounts - just like real life, we like names
3. Retweets >> replies (maybe bc RT is 'easy' and reply takes more thought to compose?)
#hcsm #AHSM #meded #ATS2019 Image
This is a collage of the most shared images from #ATS2019 - slides, posters, speakers, advocacy, and more. (I see the superstar Dr. @arghavan_salles right up there with the famous Dr. Bart Celli!) #ATS2019 Image

#TWEETORIAL: What does it mean to be a social media 'influencer'? It's more than a popularity contest. Here are 4 ways to slice the data, using #ATS2019 @symplur analytics

1⃣Here's a list of top influencers across all categories by the proprietary Symplur Rank.
Here's the same list, but limited to doctors tweeting #ATS2019 - which is why it's important for your bio to identify you as a professional if you want to be counted within your #hcsm community
Rank is based on multiple factors, including:
1. Relevance to the hashtag - higher scores go to ATS orgs and docs who are active in the ATS community all the time (not just during #ATS2019).
2. Accounts with many followers, but not just any followers...

My 8y son: what's this muscle called?

Me: the masseter. It's the major mastication muscle - for chewing.

Him: that's a stupid name. It should be called 'The Big Chewing Chomper'

RT if you agree, #MedTwitter

He wants to know if we're going to change it officially🙂
He also proposed we change the sternocleidomastoid to 🎶 'the head bone's connected to the chest bone'🎶

I tried to explain that basically, that IS how it's named 🙂

Show the kid some love,
