My Curated 2016 Review
There ’s too much content: you post too many tweets that don’t offer value to anyone whom you don’t call “Mom,” and you post too many photos of your baby sitting on a carpet. I’d like to create a movement for 2017. In this movement all adopters will be thoughtful in what they share with the wo rld. We will share less, though what we share will have more impact on others.Be prepared, though, to become less popular, because social media rewards those who post the most. You will not gain as many followers as you did in 2016. People may forget you exist (until you post that killer photo of your baby sitting on the ...

Psychology Around the Net: August 27, 2016
The latter part of August is when most kids are headed back to school in America, and while many parents take this time to post first-day-of-school photos (as well as jokingly posting a few thoughts on their kids heading back to school!), there’s one topic that’s even more serious: bullying.
(Of course, I realize this is a major issue for kids around the globe.)
According to StopBullying.gov, children who are often at risk for being bullied are “perceived as different from their peers,” “depressed, anxious, or have low self-esteem,” or “antagonize others for attention,” whil...

Embracing Optimism Even When Life Seems Unfair
About a year ago, I entered trauma therapy. For the first time I was honest with myself about the sexual abuse I experienced as a child. It opened a floodgate and shame, disgust, resentment, and depression rushed in. I’m happy to say that today those feelings are lessened or absent completely.
I started working out a lot and traded a lot of fat for muscle. Every inch of me is now shaped differently. I’m the fittest and strongest I’ve ever been in my life. And yet I’m also sick. The stress of the past year did a number on my body. I was recently diagnosed with cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN II)...

American Cancer Society Updates HPV Vaccine Recommendations to Include Males
In a new report, the American Cancer Society recommends that 11- and 12-year-old girls as well as boys should be vaccinated to guard against cancers associated with the human papilloma virus (HPV). “HPV vaccination has the potential to prevent tens of thousands of cancers and hundreds of thousands of pre-cancers each year,” said Debbie Saslow, PhD, director of cancer control intervention for HPV vaccination and women’s cancers at the American Cancer Society. “It is critical that all the stakeholders here—families, health care providers, and others—make HPV vaccination a priority, so that prevention of the vast ...

Myths: Human Papillomavirus infection
Human papilloma virus (HPV), coloured transmission electron micrograph (TEM).
Common myths & facts about HPV infection
Not a common problem. Approximately 80% of sexually active adults will have the HPV virus at some point during their life.
Only women get HPV. This infection is common in both sexes.
Condoms prevent HPV infection. If there is a skin-to-skin contact, you can get the infection.
Every type of HPV cause cancer. High-risk viruses (16, 18)Â can cause cervical, anal, oral and penile cancer.
Only vaginal sex can spread the infection. HPV can be spread through oral, vaginal or anal sex.

The World of Transplant is getting more and more AMAZING
There have been so many transplant stories in the news lately, how could I not write something?Even though I've been toiling in the ED, my heart still belongs to transplant. Wait...you know what I mean. Anyhoo, let's start off with a story that's been on many news sites. Thomas Manning just became the first person in the U.S. to receive a penis transplant. The 64 year old had penile cancer and had to have his penis amputated in 2012. The remarkable thing is that he has been very open to talking about the procedure in an attempt to remove the stigma surrounding "genital" transplants.Some info from the NY TimesBut I really l...

Continued Phallic Stage
My first fiction story to publish is about a penile operation.During my first residency at Stonecoast, everyone talked about "submitting." I knew what that meant—my agent and I had submitted my first book about a hundred times before landing a publisher. I just didn't realize I could submit anything. I began researching publications. There are so many, for every genre and story length. I created an account on The (Submission) Grinder to track my work. And then I submitted two stories to a total of six publications, and have since received three rejections and one acceptance by the website A Story In 100 Words which ...

Free market for surgery: interview with Allevion CEO Arnon Krongrad, MD
Surgery can be expensive, scary, dangerous and even deadly. Yet it’s hard for patients and even for referring physicians to navigate the system. So I was intrigued when I was contacted by Dr. Arnon Krongrad , CEO of Allevion, Inc., a healthcare logistics company that markets surgery packages. The company’s Surgeo online marketplace let’s patients shop for the surgeon of their choice.
I explored the topic in depth with Dr. Krongrad in this email interview.
What are the limitations of referrals to surgeons by primary doctors?
Conventional surgeon referrals by other doctors, such as primary physicians, r...

Road Trippin' from Denver to Las Vegas in a Chrysler 200: A Picture Story
Read this first: Remembering That One Memorable TripI miss the 11 a.m. tour of Balcony House at Mesa Verde National Park by six minutes, resulting in possible catastrophe: after the noon tour, Garmin estimates I will reach the South Rim of the Grand Canyon at sunset instead of with a time cushion. I roar down the two-lane US-160 West with its broken yellow center line, passing all the cars.I stop for my afternoon coffee, a requirement for this addict. Garmin says I just lost five minutes. Now I pass cars that any other time I would consider too risky. My accelerator pedal lives on or near the floor. This rental Chrysler 20...

Healthcare Update Satellite — 02-10-2015
This article calls testosterone the “drug of the future” and compares its use to estrogen – which isn’t a controlled substance. One person interviewed for the article noted that “almost everything we treat in medicine is age-related. Aging is related to bad eyesight, bad hearing, bad joints, bad hearts, bad blood vessels, and cancer. We treat all of these without trying to minimize or diminish them that they are age related.” Why pick on testosterone use?
Damn. Boyfriend secretly records himself having sex with his 17 year old girlfriend. Video “somehow” gets uploaded to inte...

Healthcare Update Satellite — 02-03-2015
Thanks for the patience in putting up with my lack of regular posting. Life has been challenging lately. Still working on it.
When government pays for your care, government may try to force its values on you. Learning-disabled mother of six children in England deemed at “grave” risk if she has any more children. Now the government wants to forcibly remove her from her home and sterilize her. A lawyer representing the woman stated that sterilization was “therapeutic.”
This process will come to medicine sooner than you think. Just watch. Uber drivers now get to rate their passengers after a ride. When...

Epiditi Male Genitals Cooling/Heating Solution Looking for Crowdfunding
While the pain of child birth is reserved to women, getting “hit in the nuts” is always a memorable time in a man’s life. Pain in the scrotal sack can also be caused by cancer, post-operative inflammation, testicular torsion, etc etc. A lot of the pain and swelling can be addressed with an ice pack, but those work well for relatively tough tissue, so properly cooling the genitals can be tricky and embarrassing in polite company.
Gallen Technology (Short Hills, New Jersey) is now crowdfunding the commercialization of a cooling sack that looks like an athletic safety cup but works like a nest to gently hol...
