Are there consequences to high blood pressure in pregnancy?
Yes.
Even if BP has since normalized, you are at risk. Get checked, optimize your risks. Stay healthy!

BREAKING: A federal judge ordered the government to restore Rümeysa Öztürk's SEVIS student record after it was wrongfully terminated in retaliation for exercising her freedom of speech.
This allows her to fully engage with the opportunities of her PhD program.
Bottom line? Precision matters. Measure, monitor, personalize care. That’s how we fight the world’s #1 killer.

Imagine living on a flood plain. Floods don’t happen every year, but risk is higher.
In 346,000 patients, GLP-1 meds didn’t raise pancreatitis risk—and for those without prior pancreatitis, risk was 4× lower. #CardioSmart @aspcardio.bsky.social www.acc.org/Latest-in-Ca...
Same earthquake analogy—except now we’re looking for cracks in arteries.
In 40,000 patients, ANY calcium doubled risk of death from heart disease and even other causes. CAC scans = powerful prevention tool. #PreventiveCardiology @accintouch.bsky.social www.cardiosmart.org/topics/high-...
Think earthquake. The shaking stops, but hidden cracks remain.
In 218,000 births, women with pregnancy hypertension had much higher risk of heart attack, stroke, and death within 5 years—even if BP looked “normal” later. #Cardiology @accintouch.bsky.social www.cardiosmart.org/assets/infog...
Earlier studies used vitamin D like “fire and forget”—give 2,000 IU and hope. That’s like prescribing BP meds and never checking BP.
In our trial of 630 patients, we measured & adjusted vitamin D—and cut second heart attacks by ~50%. #HeartHealth
What do earthquakes, flood plains, and blood pressure meds have in common? They all explain how new heart research can save lives. 🫀 Here’s what we shared at #AHA25: 🧵 @americanheart.bsky.social

Kamala Harris: It is about reminding folks that we refuse to kneel at the foot of a tyrant. That's not what we do. We stand for the principles upon which our nation was founded. We believe in the power of the vote, and we are prepared when necessary to fight fire with fire.

Dems should go heavy on this bill to stop paychecks for Congress and the Cabinet during a shutdown from John B. Larson and add in that all White House construction stops, too.
Then throw in a 1% tax on the super-rich to pay for military salaries since Trump's pals are feeling so generous.
Mike Johnson: "We're fighting for healthcare as well. Not just in word but in deed. We put in the one big beautiful bill, real reforms to Medicaid to make it work better."
(The bill in fact cuts nearly $1 trillion from Medicaid.)
We are not archetypes of our emotions.
We’re not defined by one feeling. We’re a dynamic blend—sometimes joyful, sometimes anxious, sometimes numb.
When we allow space for all emotions—ours and others—we lead with empathy, resilience, and authenticity.

Good evening. We estimate that between 4.2 and 7.6 million people turned out for the No Kings Day demonstrations held around the country on Saturday. This makes Oct 18 very likely the biggest single-day U.S. protest event since 1970. www.gelliottmorris.com/p/second-no-...

Donald Trump will keep trying to invade Illinois with troops — and we will keep defending the sovereignty of our state.
Militarizing our communities against their will is not only un-American but also leads us down a dangerous path for our democracy.
What will come next?

Trump commuting Santos is not just a curiosity. It’s a feature of corruption… it’s a message… if you like me you can get away with anything. If we accept this as ok our kids will never forgive us
Breaking on MSNBC: Two top criminal lawyers in the Eastern District of Virginia have been fired: Elizabeth Yusi, the criminal chief, and her deputy Kristin Bird. Both had been involved with Letitia James case and were skeptical of it.
I'm aware that the Trump Administration's HHS Dept is now on Bluesky.
Due to concerns the account and other branches of HHS will share medical/vaccine misinformation using #Medsky feeds, I've made the decision to preemptively add the HHS account to a Misinformation Blocklist hosted by @medsky.info.
BlueSky just verified the White House account. I responded by doing the only appropriate thing:
In our country, the power is with the people. Tomorrow, October 18, I encourage you to join your neighbors in peaceful protest at a No Kings event.
