On 7/26/24, my husband and my 4 year wedding anniversary (!), I delivered our first baby to the #ErasTour playlist - he arrived during “All Too Well (10 Minute Version)”. From your masterpiece to mine! @taylornation13 @taylorswift13 🧣🐣

Thank you to @neimanmarcus for resolving the issue and refunding me after @FedExHelp lost my purchase. Too bad the gorgeous @McQueen handbag (Mini jewel satchel in the multicolor pink/peach/green colorway) …is now sold out everywhere. 😢😢😢

Why does the customer always suffer? After days of phone calls and emails, I have no package even though @FedEx says it was delivered. Both @neimanmarcus and @FedExHelp have closed the case. …I even have security footage showing that no package was delivered! I’m out $1100.

National Doctors’ Day was yesterday and we celebrated by honoring all of our colleagues! ....But did you know... 49% of physicians said they were somewhat or very happy during the pandemic; this number was 69% before the pandemic. Burnout is real! #takecareofyourself #MedTwitter

Episode 2: Pelvic Pain 101 is up! https://t.co/rKYMmUOiok This episode is near and dear to our heart! We both are passionate about pelvic pain because these patients can often be lost in the medical system due to the complexity of the diagnosis. #pelvicpain #womenspain

“Why did my doctor put me on a anti-depressant even though I went in for a pain evaluation?” 🧠 Low doses of anti-depressants can help with pain processing... without the side effects of the higher doses used for depression! #chronicpain #womenspain #womenshealth #MedTwitter

Did you know that historically women have been excluded from pain studies? And over 80% of pain studies have only been done on male subjects? It wasn’t until recently we even began to realize that pain signaling works differently in men and women? #ChronicPain #womenshealth

SI joint injections can be diagnostic, meaning help diagnose the source of pain, as well as therapeutic, meaning treat the pain. Prospective observational studies have shown that up to 80% of patients have greater than 50% relief with an SI injection! #womenspain #WomensHealth
