PSA: oral iron replacement is best given on alternate days as a single dose. Oral iron supplementation increases hepcidin and reduces subsequent iron absorption (for ~24h). Giving BD or TDS oral iron is poorly tolerated AND counterproductive/ineffective. Less IS more.

@DrPeterFahey @CV_UHB @BMA_WJDC @SuzRankin @JenneyMeriel Absolutely unacceptable. Bullying even. There is no obligation to disclose. Its the Trust's responsibility to make appropriate plans for staffing like most other have trusts have been doing and most will start from the default position that most people will be on strike

Hard to think of anyone who has done more, or been a greater advocate for, patients with MPN than @harrisoncn1 who is delivering the @BritSocHaem Presidential medal lecture. Very well deserved, Claire! #BSH2023

@OrthopodReg The 'record' that noone uses and noone will ever see. What pointless passive-aggressiveness that serves only to alienate. It should have read 'we know a lot of you are off sick. We hope you're ok, please let us know if you need anything or if there is anything we can do to help'

@mancunianmedic @drcolinm @gmcuk If there is a question about how to improve medical education in the UK and the answer involves the GMC, then 💀💀💀. An archaic, reactive, institutionally racist organisation that needs sweeping away. Its not fit for purpose IMO.

Final session at the @BritSocHaem ASM Haematology Essentials Day is by Dr James Leveson on the all important topic of haematological emergencies. What is the most urgent of urgent emergencies though? 🤔🤔 #BSHASM2023

@Xeon4f145d96s1 The Royal Colleges have endured for centuries by courting political power and the apathy of their members. Extraordinary that they would seek to negate their very reason for existence by undermining their future membership in this way. Unless they co-opt MAPs into the college?

@bbchealth Dear BBC, who is doing the 'accusing' mentioned in the headline? No mention in the story despite the headline. No comparison of night rates for other professions for context. Where is the balanced reporting? Please try and do some journalism. Thanks xx

How’s NHS? Staff completely flat out & beyond full stretch. Busier than ever before at this time of year. Major workforce/demand challenges. Before full impact of winter/omicron. Worrying. But as committed as ever to providing outstanding patient care to all who need it!🧵. 1/25

Just finished a rewarding day of remote interviewing for haematology ST3 posts. The future of the specialty is in very capable hands! Also well done and thanks to the team at @NHS_HealthEdEng who organised the day and supported the process. #TeamHaem

The big problem with the 'personal responsibility' discourse is that my mask protects other people from me not the other way round. Urging people to take personal responsibility for their safety doesnt work when their safety relies on others being socially responsible.

Would strongly encourage all those who care about the future of the NHS to come out and support our brilliant and hardworking junior doctors next week. The strike is wholly avoidable, but the SoS has his head in the sand. #BMA

@TomStocks1982 I wrote a masters thesis related to this very topic, would you believe? Essentially, has the GMC become a legitimising arm of the neoliberal state? The answer was in the affirmative.

@zackferguson Have been saying this for years. The RCP made a ham-fisted attempt to solve the GIM recruitment crisis by spreading it around specialties that didn't do GIM thus putting even more people off it. Make it an attractive proposition and people will flock to it!

@LNRailway How is the 'no service on Friday' different to the 'service' you've provided any other day this week exactly? Will anyone notice? Every day feels like a no service day sometimes

@gmcuk Worrying but important. Has the GMC indulged in some reflexivity and considered what it has done (or not done) to facilitate/prevent this state of affairs?
