INTERVIEW SEGMENT
For this week’s TETE-A-TETE segment, meet our guest... - @eddie23.
Tell us about yourself
My name is Edwin with my steemit username @eddie23. I'm a gospel spoken word artist, singer, drummer, tourist, lover of the Blockchain/CryptoCurrency.
WHY DO YOU LOVE AIR-CLINIC?
I love Air-Clinic for so many reasons but one of which is the fact that it's the very first clinic on the Blockchain. And It has been providing health-related solutions since its inception. It was also one of my first homes when I joined steemit.
HIGH AND LOW POINTS ON STEEMIT
My high points was when I participated in steemcamp and when I also got employed by @dimimp into steemjet space force but my low point was when I misplaced my first steemit account.
HOW DO YOU BALANCE STEEMIT WITH REAL LIFE ?
Interesting question. Well, it's not been easy because I had to quit from a certain job I was doing so I could give steemit all the attention it needed. But I've learned how to be disciplined enough to manage my time and lifestyle. So I would say that the balance is on track.
MOTIVATION FOR YOU
Self-motivated
CHALLENGES/SURVIVAL
It's been very challenging I must say especially concerning my field. I don't really have a story to tell from it but I've been surviving because God has been helping me out.
FINAL WORDS OF ENCOURAGEMENT TO THE AIR-CLINIC FAMILY
My final words of encouragement to all medics is "Thank you for all you do on the Blockchain"

Case 1 Highlight
The Diagnosis of this was postpartum hemorrhage
Case 2 Highlight
The Diagnosis for this was inguinoscrotal hernia.
FOR THIS WEEK, HERE ARE THE CASES FOR YOU TO ATTEMPT.
Case 1
Cynthia is a 15-year old whose life has been miserable due to painful gum she developed in the past 6 months, she just recovered from a nosebleed which she could not actually say what the real cause was.
She always dreads the next months to come because of her heavy flow associated with her montly cycle. Cynthia finally opts for a tooth extraction to ease the pain.
After the procedure she begins to bleed profusely. Cynthias bleeding still persists, so she is referred to see another specialist. The specialist later discovers that her mother and grandfather had a similar disease when they were alive.
- What do you think is Cynthia's medical problem (diagnosis)?
- If you were a doctor, how would you solve the problem?
- What lessons have you learned from this story?
Case 2
Bob is a 55-year-old retired teacher who noticed he had pains around his face last week but he did not take it seriously.
He remembered that a few days earlier, probably about a week also, he noticed he had a rash and blisters around his right eye.
This area around the eye now seems to hurt so much, so he decides to consult a doctor for proper care and management.
- What do you think is Bob's medical problem (diagnosis)?
- If you were a doctor, how would you handle his case?
- What lessons have you learned from this story?
Attempt the cases as much as you can...

On the cases:
Seems the girl is low on thrombozytes. The text indicates that her relatives did not have a long life. The disease can be finally diagnosed via bone marrow puncture. A transfusion with thrombozytes might help.
@eddie23 ....good to have you here!!!!
15 years old with heavy flow, not too cool.
Inherited disease... saddening.
I've extracted my tooth before when I was younger, it gave me sleepless night all because of my love for sweets and gum.
For Bob's case, we should take our healthy serious. Any symptoms or a growth somewhere should be addressed immediately.
Weldone @antigenx and the crew.
Yayyyy Eddddddiiiiieeee! Nice one bruv! Cheers @air-clinic....we love you
