Not sure why @itv has started putting adverts on during the #SixNations2026 #rugby play breaks but I do not like it. I want to hear the ref, discussion & understand what is happening not seeing random ads! Please stop!

To all my #bleedingdisorder community peers, happy international day of women & girls in science! We stand on the shoulders of giants within this field, women who have made vast improvements to the treatment & care provision for affected individuals & families. Let's keep it up!

A really enjoyable first #MDT session at #EAHAD2026 Thank you to @eahad.bsky.social & the #nurses committee for the invitation to participate in a session on something I'm so passionate about. We could have talked for hours more #ageing #haemophilia care @wfhemophilia
🗣️We're excited to kick off the #Ageing session at #EAHAD2026! Looking forward to exploring how we can optimise care for our ageing #BleedingDisorders population & address the unique challenges they face. 🩸

Treating #iron deficiency before #anaemia occurs is essential for a good quality of life. Recognising the influence of inflammation on the body's ability to absorb iron & taking a full view and treating is important #EAHAD2026

How we ask about bleeding is likely to provide us different outcomes, by going through individual sites & asking about #bruising as well as bleeding we can be a good way of establishing the true picture of #bleeding? #EAHAD2026

Great to catch the latter part of the joint nurse & psychosocial session on #distress in #bleedingdisorders at #EAHAD2026 Frequently the HTC will be a safe place & staff will recognise signs of distress before others due to knowing the individual or family so well. Check in!
