RE: Concise presentation: overview and 4 most common autoimmune diseases (Body cells attacks itself)
Very nice! It's also interesting the relationship between them. For instance, almost 10 percent of type I diabetics have celiac spru. Also diabetes is very common with thyroid diseases. HLA links are very weird.
Yeah, really thats why Rheumatology confuse me, case presentation can be anything after clinical assessment, only lab can till which is which :)
thank you for coming by @tfeldman
I may have a patient with a renal tubular acidosis but not sure...waiting for the urine electrolytes to come back. Always good reading your articles!
RTA! that is interesting case, keep my updated please
Thank you @tfeldman, it is good to see you man, i am enjoying your medical blogs and opinmic :)
I think it was a lab error on the present case, but I have seen it before when I took nephrology.
I think you are lucky, non anion gab metabolic acidosis picked up during routine investigation is not that common, maybe in Nephro but in Internal medicine or ER is rare :)
