    #MedEdMonday Continued and repeated episodes of PEM are associated with worsened long-term functional capacity for individuals with ME/CFS and Long COVID. As part of our education series for rehab professionals, we developed this handout to show providers the types of exertion that can lead to PEM and how the "push-crash cycle," when left unchecked, can lead to a worsened disease state.

    Please share it with your networks to make PEM common knowledge.

    @SlySaint Thanks for the link to the 2-page handout! (that last link in your post)

    I don't think the #MedEdMonday works without a LinkedIn account. Just like twitter, LinkedIn is not letting folks search unless they are logged in.

    Bateman Horne used to do Med Ed Monday posts on their blog (on their website) but it looks like they are only doing that on social media now.

    I'm still getting over the news that people use LinkedIn in 2023 – I thought that had long gone the way of Britpop and Palm Pilots.

    This is disappointing, especially when you can't even view content without an account.

    I think it's only the search links that won't work if you aren't logged in, same as with twitter.

    That first link in @Sly Saint 's post worked for me.

    I should have maybe put the whole post in quotes as I got it from their website (can't find the exact link now).

    Presentation Topic: Can even small amounts of joy and imagination benefit health?

    Agenda
    – 15 to 20 minute presentation by a community participant on an illness-related topic
    – Announce the “get to know you” question
    – Separate into virtual break-out rooms for introductions and discuss the “get to know you” questions


    Comment: I think that finding joy with this illness is a worthy aim by itself. If this was someone selling, I probably wouldn't highlight it but that doesn't look like it's the case.

    "The Cost of ME/CFS: An OT’s Lived Experience"

    https://batemanhornecenter.org/the-cost-of-me-cfs-an-occupational-therapists-lived-experience/

    I found it a bit interesting that this person who was an OT themselves still had difficulty adapting.

    Edited to add:
    Extract:
    "It was counterintuitive to all my training and experience what true rest as well as pre-emptive rest meant. The rehabilitation philosophy of incrementally training and graded exercise was also not effective and in fact harmful to me."

    "ME/CFS is this center puzzle piece that has all these surrounding conditions like POTS, dysautonomia, MCAS, CCI, fibromyalgia, and more. All these conditions are so intermixed with the symptom presentation and helping our patients was truly an art form to experience and learn from."

    That is, sadly, not a very good advert for a centre of excellence.
    Medicine was an art form forty years ago but we hoped that had changed.
