1. Went for my annual #mammogram today. 😕 Didn’t bother with pictures so I’m just retweeting last year’s thread.

So far, we have #tuberculosis on the differential. “Consumption” or “#phthisis”, wasting away, as #Tb was often referred to, certainly could explain this patients weight loss and adenopathy.
But does it explain the rest?
