Twitter account dedicated to POIS
« on: March 27, 2022, 08:50:47 PM »

Work in progress, not sure how active I will be. I will make sure the most important threads are included (pinned thread).
The people I will follow are MDs who are aware of POIS. Link to twitter is also present in my signature. Goals: spreading awareness, to act as a portal to various forums and threads, and to present a list with POIS doctors (following section). I will also retweet some old POIS tweets, not all because there is a massive amount of these and many of them are RTs.

Nice, I think following some long covid doctors might be good to.

People may give suggestions what I should post on twitter here in the comments. I can take a look at it and copy it to twitter. Check the channel to see some messages to give you an idea. Remember that the character limit is small.

From our admin/mod discussion:

As long as you post links to POIScenter on your channel, it is ok.  But no copying posts and reposting there. It is in the forum rules that members are not allowed to do that :

"No scraping or data harvesting

You may not scrape, harvest, or otherwise collect information in bulk from POISCenter. You may not copy content from POISCenter for another site, or for any other purpose."


However, the links pointing here are good to raise awareness and bring new members.

10 years of significant POIS-reduction, treatment consisting of daily (365 days/year) testosterone patches.

TRT must be checked out carefully with your doctor due to fertility, cardiac and other risks.

I agree. The work of Muon, Journey and (insert here whoever maintains those facebook groups) is awesome to raise POIS awareness.

Thank you.

Berlin, “the links pointing here” refer to those links going from Twitter to POISCenter.

Great initiative ! Everyone should help the account to grow by following ; it will eventually reach a larger audience if we cooperate.
It's quite easy to create a Twitter account yourself to do so and if you're not interested by the content, you can hide it via this procedure :

1/ After clicking on the link and following, click on the three dots highlighted here :


2/ In the options bar that opened, look for the text highlighted here and click on it (you can also hide only part of the content by clicking on "Turn off Retweets") :


Eventually our efforts to support POIS awareness will pay off :)

I have seen several people literally stumble across this account and all the pieces of the puzzle fell into place for them.

Same for the subreddit advertisements and discord posts I have made about POIS, many finally understood why they have the weird symptoms

Unfortunately now it is harder for new reddit users to post on /r/POIS because REMOVED added an another useless restriction of only 2+ week old accounts being allowed to post there

So I made an alternative subreddit /r/POIS_

POISers should FOLLOW the Twitter account and all POIS communities to maximize exposure and interact as much as possible

Every post/like/upvote/follow/comment/repost on all platforms helps for POIS so everyone should devote a few minutes a day to interact with new POIS content

The more POISers we find the EVEN MORE POISers will be there to CONTINUE THE POSITIVE FEEDBACK loop
