@oldfriend99 @jason_schrock How jeopardy works is that they say “this year” or something like that and then your answer is in the form of a question and you say a year so the answer would be “what is 1939?” Then that would be the correct answer. This year means the question is when did this happen.

@rut85826 @medicalmodelbri @rcgp @VictoriaTzB @DoctorsVoteUK @doctor_katie @DrNeenaJha @DrSteveTaylor @dave_dlt @DrLKVaughan I'm not defending this but 'admin' here means 'making quick and judicious judgement calls requiring a level of skill and experience worthy of a GP'. They don't mean photocopying and licking envelopes.

@DrGoblin3 I always send in if it's the first time. If it's a repeat episode (in someone on waiting list for surgery) then I tell patients that they should go in, but they often refuse because SAU send them home with co-amox. So in those cases i have a sensible chat about risks.

@hlnewey What happens if you choose option 2? Does it involve going to see your GP by any chance?

Today I learned scientists discovered a dinosaur tail perfectly preserved in amber. It is full of feathers.

Osteoarthritis Of The Knee... Thread #1... of 4 "Bone on bone." "Your cartilage is worn away." "You have the knee of a 90 year old." I've heard these phrases bantered about thousands of times in 25 years. They are very common explanations patients get for their arthritic knee pain. They cause harm. Xray findings do not correlate with symptoms... they just don't. ... and those descriptions lead to decisions that might not be the proper treatment at that point in time. 🧵

@valhumphreys51 Scrubs because I do about 10 rectal examinations per week, occasionally have to wrestle a drooling toddler, plus home visits to houses that stink. Unsure what outfit you want me to wear whilst I do this stuff, or why you care.

@DrGoblin3 Agree. Sometimes I wish people would complain more, but that would require them to be able to articulate what they are unhappy about, which in most cases they can't do.
