A perfect example of the level of care complex patients routinely get in Canada. Years of our lives (and god knows how many healthcare dollars) are wasted, as we deteriorate due to this kind of gaslighting. We need better #Care4ComplexCanada cause #MedicalGaslighting ruins lives.
Here’s the scam.. you work 12 hour days, addicted to your phone, living pay check to pay check, eating toxic food, disconnected from nature & being exposed to toxic ideology that is provoking stress Then you feel like shit & they label you w/ a medical disorder & give you a pill
@marcanada54 @cancelproof @adriandix I think the BC Government has proven that they don't care about the lives of seniors at all, or really the lives of anyone else in the province.
I was approved for assisted suicide a few days ago...3rd times a charm I guess.. if only I could get people to actually listen to me and doctors to help.. taking these days to think deeply and self-reflect.
Reversing decrim on drugs. Obviously Dix didn't do his job. What do you expect when you don't have consumption sites? They do it on the street, in the bus, on the playground. If we had consumption sites, this disaster would not have happen. 7 per/day die in BC
Canadian families and individuals with incomes between $30,000 and $60,000 are often shouldering the heaviest tax burden, finds a new study by the @FraserInstitute. tnc.news/2024/04/24/low…
Do they cost $500 a month? Because the federal gov and the provincial gov think that's what homes cost.

About 2m people have long Covid in England and Scotland, figures show theguardian.com/society/2024/a…
Fellow complex patients in BC and Canada wide experiencing medical neglect - please share your stories with the hashtags #Care4ComplexBC + #Care4ComplexCanada (feel free to add your own province too), so we can start to aggregate our stories and make them more visible! #cdnhealth
New studies suggest that using unlabelled data in medical #AI can improve accuracy and generalization to new settings and minority patient groups, thereby increasing fairness. News and Views from Emma Pierson & colleagues @2plus2make5 @cornell_tech nature.com/articles/s4159…
Personally, I’d like to have a country that has enough doctors that people can find a doctor and can find a different doctor if they need to.
WBRC: 'UAB Doctors researching rise of POTS in young athletes' UAB doctors have found evidence to suggest that viral illnesses, as well as concussions can trigger POTS in younger healthy adults. wbrc.com/2024/04/20/uab…
We recognize that science has so little to offer Long Covid patients partially due to decades of medical neglect of chronic conditions like ME/CFS, dysautonomia, and MCAS.

@RobynUrback The wheels are coming off our much-vaunted healthcare system at the same time that government-provided euthanasia is working at peak efficiency. Related or not, it’s not a good look.
It's recommended to test well water & community systems every year. Not just for bacteria but for pesticides, chemicals, and metals. In BC, my cost was $415. That is a lot of $ for many families and so putting in a reverse osmosis systems might be cheaper than yearly testing.

Glad to see the flip-flop on open drug use. Even though it was only done because of polling ahead of an election, revealing a huge and easy oppo target. But remember, this government thinks announcements are results. "Working hard" and "taking action" won't cut it.
BC’s Conservation Officers look like police, and carry the same weapons as police. But unlike police, they have no independent oversight.

@alexnatarosMD @somerspsych @ZivoAdam @FranYanor @markroseman Also (and I don’t want to pit different groups against each other either) why are opioids so deeply restricted to people in so much pain they can get approved for MAID? Not getting any pain mgmt or palliative care but being approved for MAID is incomprehensible to me.
Much of our health system depends on people having access to good primary care. Which they don't. Kludges and workarounds don't change that. So why is it ok for the masterminds taking billions of our tax dollars to manage our system to just shrug and say they're working hard?
