I am a regular follower of your blog, and I find your insights and experiences most enlightening. I am a health informatics professional (BSc HINF, UVic ’88), and I have been practicing for the past 6 years in the area of physician adoption of electronic medical records (EMR). I was in Alberta for 5 years with the Physician Office System Program (POSP), and I am now in Victoria as a Local Relationship Manager for the Physician IT Office (PITO).
I would be interested in your perspectives on the use of primary care decision support systems in general, and EMRs in particular.
Just a suggestion for a future blog topic…get some rest!
I recently put together a list of 50 different doctors that are Twittering and you’ve been included in the list;) If you wouldn’t mind, could you share my list with your followers and blog readers?
Want to work for the 2009 OCFP Rural Family Practice of the Year. Looking for a balance between work, family and lifestyle.

Hi Jessica,
I see your post about bell’s palsy is a year old, but I was wondering how you are doing now? I had bell’s palsy about 7 months ago and my paralysis is gone but I have some other persisting symptoms. I can’t seem to find much on the internet about how people are doing once they are “healed.” I still get dizzy all the time and have hypersensitive hearing. If you get this my email is taryn.a.y@gmail.com
Thank you!
Hi Taryn! I am fully recovered, I was very lucky. Have some jaw problems on that side but I think they are unrelated.
I’m really not an expert in Bell’s Palsy except insofar as I experienced it. Best I can suggest is to talk with your doctor and raise your concerns. If your family doctor doesn’t know, they might sent you to an ENT or Neurologist. Best wishes – Jessica
