INTERVIEW SEGMENT
For this week’s TETE-A-TETE segment, meet our guest... - @scarletmedia.
Tell us about yourself
My name is Success Onyekachi Maduka, a graduate of Mass Communication. I've lived most of my life in the western part of Nigeria though I don't know a thing about the Yoruba language... Lol. My passion lies in Music and Sports. In my spare time, I study books of any kind or play video games.
WHY DO YOU LOVE AIR-CLINIC?
From the first day I saw the name air-clinic, there's been this attraction to it. So when I joined, I wasn't surprised at the initial feeling... I felt totally at home. Air-clinic bears so much love in its name. The founders, admins and radio heads altogether made it colorful. It got to the point that no day is truly complete without me hanging out in the clinic on discord. I wish to also say that air-clinic helped me develop my writing skills. I've become a better writer and a better blogger, thanks to air-clinic.
HIGH AND LOW POINTS ON STEEMIT
Frankly speaking, my high point on steemit was the time when 1 sbd could give me 3k naira. Yeah, those days are unforgettable. As for the low point, I have none. As long as I'm still able to share my knowledge with people through writing, I'm satisfied.
SECRET BEHIND YOUR USERNAME
I wish to own and run a media house someday which is how I came about the name, Scarletmedia. The name alone is a constant reminder and motivation for me to work extra hard to make sure that dream comes true.
CHALLENGES/SURVIVAL STORY IN BLOGGING
At first, it was quite easy to blog about what you love and still get votes. But later, things began to take a new turn. There were rules and "specific specifications" on how to write before getting curated by the right people. For me, it was more like someone telling me to change my style of writing and the motive behind the write-up.
FINAL WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO THE AIR-CLINIC FAMILY
Never stop dreaming. Never stop writing. Exceed your expectation and beat your best. Ignore the pressure and setbacks and stay focused on your dream. It only takes the grace of God. Have Faith in God, entrust your time and activities to Him and everything will fall into place.

Yayyyy..that's our Scarlet! Your writing is really really great love.
Amanda definitely has a bead stuck in her ear. I'm not sure if an ear flush would be the be the best way to get it out.
Seems I was on the right track for case 1 at least.
Great job here @antigenx in the compilation. Kudos. More steem to your elbow!
Last week first case, which features favour the diagnosis of klinefelter syndrome but against the testicular tumour?
Posted using Partiko Android
yea, twas klinifelters syndrome. There was no pointer towards a testicular tumour. The small firm testis was a descriptive data to aid diagnosis. There were no other signs of carcinoma in the examination findings..
Testicular tumours can be a differential from 20, the patient usually experiences a painless swelling in one testis. The books say gynecomastia may occur in 5% of cases of testicular tumours (, but this is too rare to think of it)
Remember Klinifelters syndrome is characterized by hypogonadism (micro-orchidism) ie small testes and penis, gynecomastia, etc.
Klinifelters syndrome is the most appropriate diagnosis
Thank you doc for the explanation. Much appreciated
