Leave this to the ai bros who just solved 700 math problems that humans couldn't.
Don't get all pissed off like the mathematicians when ai cures cancer. And remember I told you so.

Took me a long time to realise the steroids I was being prescribed were keeping me sick& addicted to the medication because if I tried to stop I got Topical Steroid Withdrawal. It's taken nearly 7 years of reducing the dose & rehabilitating my kidneys to nearly be free of them.

For years, Elena was given a chemotherapy drug she didn't need. Now she's infertile and too ill to work - and she's just one of 40 patients treated by the same doctor who are suing the hospital for wrecking their lives trib.al/z5RXnI2

I’m no lawyer but this decision is disheartening. Someone accused of failing to cooperate with the #PostOfficeInquiry because innocent people suffered devastating harm - is being allowed to give evidence from Australia. My dad was dragged to court in crutches. #PostOfficeScandal
Jane MacLeod is staying put.

Topical Steroid Withdrawal
Imagine your entire skin surface red as a tomato like the worst sunburn you can imagine. Then dip yourself in acid, jam a few thousand frozen forks into your skin, electrify the forks and set yourself on fire.
Only took 3 years to get through it.

STOPPING STEROID CREAMS AND YOUR SKIN REACTS?
Topical Steroid Withdrawal (TSW) refers to a group of symptoms that some people report after reducing or stopping prolonged or frequent use of topical corticosteroids, particularly on sensitive areas.
Symptoms may include:
• Intense redness and burning
• Severe itching
• Skin peeling or flaking
• Swelling or oozing
• Increased skin sensitivity
TSW can resemble a worsening of the original skin condition, making diagnosis challenging.
What should you do?
If you have been using topical steroids frequently or for a long time, don’t suddenly change or stop treatment without medical guidance. See a dermatologist or healthcare professional for proper assessment and a safe treatment plan.

Bc police = bad. Medics = angels.
Even though the (any) health service kills far more than any police service ever could through malice, neglect & incompetence.

Another example of the quality of women’s h/c in the NHS: shockingly low standards, outsourcing to private providers, ‘sincere’ apologies and ofc zero accountability - though at least the consultant is still on full pay, so that’s a relief 🙃🤬

Today’s Thirlwall report says that the move to a ‘no blame’ culture in the NHS in the 2000’s was a mistake.
