I have done the academically unfathomable:

I am resigning my faculty position without another job lined up. While I am 100% confident in my decision, I am also 100% sad.

This did not have to happen. #womeninmedicine 1/ I am not burned out. I love what I do. I love my patients and I love my research. I am not quitting my calling. I am being brave enough to be CEO of my own life. @RUBraveEnough 2/

1. ASCT use rising
2. 60% of older pts get a novel drug
3. 20% 1-yr mortality
4. 30% of older patients received NO MYELOMA TREATMENT
#ASH19 Even with universal coverage, older pts, lower SES or more comorbidities less likely to be treated for myeloma #mmsm #geriheme #ASH19 ImageImage

Abstract 67: all new patients with blood cancer age >=75 screened for frailty; participants randomized to receive geriatric consultation. Outcomes: feasibility, 1-yr OS, acute care utilization, goals of care discussion. ash.confex.com/ash/2019/webpr… 86% participated in RCT, but some patients worried that geriatric consultation would make them ineligible for treatment. Just heard this same observation from another #geriheme MD on the opposite side of the country just last night! @ROlinMD
