Damn...I'm blogging a lot. Jotting down my thoughts. I'm working up a complicated case of a 12 year girl presenting with a 3 day history of ascending sensory and motor loss starting distally bilaterally in the LE without further progression. Looking like a variant of guillain-barre, West Nile, possibly MS, less likely tranverse myelitis, and other zebras such as mitochondrial dz. If I were a patient, I think I'd want a med student working me up with the resident. My sole purpose for the last 48 hours has been figuring out what the heck is going on with this kid. I looked up all the stats, broke down each differential by stats, prognosis, most current treatment, etc. I live and breathe to help this kid. btw, she hates me. Anyhow, I'd want someone to do the same for me if I were sick. Just a thought.
