My dean in medical school told us that the best thing you can do when asked to give a lecture or talk is to end five minutes early. Always makes the audience happy at the end no matter how well or poorly you've done. The opposite is also true: run over ten minutes and you'll get scowls regardless of anything you've said.

Credentials) a couple months later. PCP says it’s not Parkinson’s and then orders a bunch of blood work to see if it’s “something else.” They ordered CMP, CBC, B12, CK, liver enzymes. It’s fine to have a differential but I’m confused as to the thought process here. #neurology

1. Which prophylaxis do you chose after a hip or knee surgery? Simplistic: ASA=LMWH Correct: ASA has similar mortality & PE as LMWH but 1-2% more uncomplicated DVTs In people at very high VTE risk, may consider LMWH if convenience & cost not an issue x.com/AnilMakam/status/16161…
