I started painting dot mandalas last summer. Happy to contribute an “I made this thing” to your feed

I have had patients who had open laparotomies for trauma in years past, no adhesions when placing PD catheter. And others with no surgical history chock full of adhesions.

I’m only two episodes in, but it seems to me like that nice Canadian boy would like a little cuddle afterwards.

We could be getting so much more out of the electronic medical record. In February’s Kidney News, Chirag Parikh and I discuss what needs to change and suggest policy steps to help us get there.

I have really neglected my fitness for an embarrassingly long time. So I’m celebrating that today I got back on my #Peloton. Hoping to be consistent, small incremental improvements.

That’s wild - I designed and had the shirt custom printed as a one-off. After it went mini-viral someone must have gone into business for themselves. Just glad to have the message spread!

What an incredible commitment it’s been, ten years and a whole ecosystem of learning and innovation. Thank you both for your leadership and also that you’ve made sure NephJC will continue to grow in the future.

Birthday dip in Lake Michigan! Water temp down to 48 degrees. I need new neoprene booties for Christmas.

This was a great speech, he said he’s 72 and not applying for grants so he’ll say what he wants. Sometimes that’s not a good prelude but Dr Califf called out income inequality, guns and opioids among other social ills we are ignoring (or actively promoting)

Dr Biff Palmer accepts the Narins award at #KidneyWk. I had the opportunity to serve on a hyperkalemia advisory board where Dr Palmer and I were the 2 nephrologists. We were tasked with giving a summary of K handling in the tubule. Biff emails me “Well Katie, how would you like to approach this?”

This is a nice bus, plush seats, air conditioning, racks for luggage above and also under for bigger suitcases. A solid option if you want to save money and aren’t on a super tight schedule.

Bus has arrived. The sign is very helpful for downloading the app and buying your ticket.

Updating - so far the bus performance has been a little disappointing. Waited 30 minutes, bus arrived and unloaded, says another is coming in 6 minutes.

KatieOverV @katiekwonmd.bsky.social · 05/11/2025
Hey #KidneyWk folks you can get the 500 bus direct from IAH to the convention center for $4.50. It leaves every 30 minutes and the stop is right by baggage claim. Public transportation FTW!

Heading out to #KidneyWeek and bringing some mandala rocks. If you come up and say “hello” I’ll give you one!

TSA agent this morning complimented my vintage Coach bag (which I bought new) and said it was a lot like her mom’s. 😐

Beautiful calm Lake Michigan. Water temp by the buoy was 58 but it felt colder going in!

After a long end to summer, fall has arrived in Michigan. The lake temperature dropped from 68 to 58 degrees inside of a week. This was a wonderful swim that helps us acclimate for winter dipping. I didn’t wear my gloves but I missed them! #coldwaterswimming

I am an incorrigible hobbyist - I get really into things in phases. With a near endless supply of beach rocks, painting mandalas was a natural choice. Maybe I’ll take some to #KidneyWk to spread some joy.
An assortment of gray stones painted with colorful dots and swirls in concentric patterns, amateurishly executed but not too bad.

I get nervous not biopsying because PLA2R results take so much longer to come back than pathology results.

If you have patients with edema and #nephrotic syndrome, researchers at the University of Michigan would like to survey them about their symptoms. Patients are paid for their time.

Very pleased that the #Panoramic team have two posters accepted for #KidneyWeek! Looking forward to presenting our ongoing quality improvement projects including sex differences in SGLT2i prescriptions.

Not so far. We just held off adjusting doses because the huge variability made no clinical sense. We have stable levels now with timing to GLP1a dose day, but what the weekly AUC actually is, I have no idea.

KatieOverV @katiekwonmd.bsky.social · 04/08/2025
Anecdote, and a general nephrologist, but my patient’s tacro troughs were all over the place after starting GLP1a. They make sure now to draw the day before next weekly shot is due.

Practical issues very important as nephrology practices skew independent. I’d love to have a PharmD on my team but the reimbursement landscape makes that challenging/ impossible.

KatieOverV @katiekwonmd.bsky.social · 06/06/2025
I think also if past experience has been that writing that Rx brings an avalanche of messages and calls about prior authorization or copays, it gets very easy to find a reason not to prescribe.

Nifty backdrop, a little hard to read from the photo. How big is #era25? How many in attendance?
