When someone is diagnosed with #BrainDisease, it’s normal to feel grief. But for #caregivers who lose a version of the loved one they once knew to brain disease, grief may take a more complicated form. Learn about anticipatory grief via @BrainandLifeMag: brainandlife.org/articles/how-c…
1/”I LOVE spinal cord syndromes!” is a phrase that has NEVER, EVER been said by anyone. Do you become paralyzed when you see cord signal abnormality? Never fear—here is a thread on all the incomplete spinal cord syndromes to get you moving again!
Doctors who tell med students “yOu CaNt Do AnYtHiNg iN NeuRoLogY” just tell on themselves that they quite literally don’t know anything about neurology 💀
The devastation in Gaza is unconscionable. We must urge an immediate ceasefire. The killing of Palestinians and Israelis must end. We must also take a hard look at nearly $4 billion a year in military aid to Israel. It is illegal for U.S. aid to support human rights violations.
Med school now is much different from med school when I graduated in 2001. More competitive. More assessments. More work required just to be average. Do all you can in training to take care of yourself. Cut yourself slack and remember that you earned your way in and you belong.
I am getting calls from friends/ family in India about COVID. From neurosurgeons to urologists, doctors are being roped in to handle the crisis. 1/ Having managed pts with COVID for the last year & having the luxury of time, here are my thoughts for those new to this battle.

Arizona Unmatched Physicians Bill #SB1271 has been approved by the House & Senate pending the Governor's signature! This will allow unmatched Physicians to practice under fully-licensed Physicians for 2 years while they reapply to Residency. HUGE win for the Physician community!

Biochemistry peaked when I realized the difference between Epinephrine and Norepinephrine is the NO-R (no additional Methyl group) on the side chain. Unfortunately, short lived joy as this was the chapter right before the Krebs Cycle. 🥲 #preresidencymusings
Writing the Personal Statement. Putting up a thread of the things I learned and that helped me while writing my story last year. Keep adding more to these. @IMG_Advocate @StoriesImg @NMatch2022 @Inside_TheMatch
@KK_medicine DONT FORGET TO REASSURE THE PATIENT!!
When writing a personal statement, try to be clear and direct, and don't use fluffy words. "I want to help kids" is stronger than "I want to enter a medical profession where I can deliver assistance using medical science to young children who have healthcare needs."

Have clear goals & set clear expectations. Be the first to reach out. Check in often. Follow up often. Be forgiving of mistakes. Create connections & opportunities. Share opportunities. Spend some $ on them🥯--if you make more than they do.
You CAN do it. You DON’T have to be the smartest, from a legacy, from a wealthy town, from a wealthy family, attend the most prestigious schools-heck you can even mess up now and again. You DO need your support system, perseverance, and faith. ✝️ Follow your dreams. #MedTwitter
