@elonmusk Ridiculous nonsense

[Dr Sudhir Kumar MD DM @hyderabaddoctor]

The Seizures That Came with Her Periods
🔸When 26-year-old Priya (name changed) walked into my neurology clinic, she and her family were frightened and confused.
🔸A few days earlier, she had experienced a sudden generalized seizure. She lost consciousness, fell to the ground, and developed jerking movements of all four limbs. It was the first major seizure of her life.
🔸But as I listened to her story, something important emerged. For the previous six months, Priya had noticed a peculiar pattern. One day before the onset of her menstrual periods, and during the first two to three days of bleeding, she would develop severe headaches, eyelid twitching, unusual confusion, and a feeling that "something wasn't right." These symptoms would then disappear until the next cycle.
🔸Believing the symptoms were related to hormonal changes, she first consulted a gynecologist. When routine tests were normal, she was reassured. Later, she saw a psychiatrist because some people felt the symptoms might be stress-related or emotional. Yet the episodes continued.
🔸The breakthrough came when her first generalized seizure occurred. The close relationship between her symptoms and menstrual cycle immediately raised suspicion of a condition called catamenial epilepsy.

@suhail_nasim Endometriosis or Desmoid!
I operated upon a huge abdominal wall mass of a pt of 38 y presenting with SBO with hysterectomy 6 months earlier. The mass was extensively adherent to terminal ileum, ascending and sigmoid colon, all resected.
Pathology was endometriosis

@AhmedIbrah52786 @suhail_nasim Colon endometriosis can get so painful you have to remind yourself to breathe.

Veil of Veronica

[Glynis D. Wallace @GlynDMD]

It is the last day of #Endometriosis Awareness Month, and a new level has been reached. Cardiothoracic has stepped up to discuss Thoracic Endometriosis. Thank you. All forms of endometriosis are serious and can be deadly. Loss of oxygen due to Thoracic can quickly lead to mental impairment or death when endometrial nodules become catamenial. I am aware and extremely grateful that without God's mercy, my life would be very different. I have had every presentation and survived.

My experience with Thoracic Endometriosis: Catamenial Pneumothorax began in 1991, marking a journey that spans over three decades. Recent AI developments and equipment (Ultrasound AI) have improved recognition and diagnosis. Recent research has identified ectopic endometrial cells in fetuses.

In the Acts of Pilate (part of the Gospel of Nicodemus), the woman with the issue of blood from the Gospels is identified as Veronica (or Berenice). She testifies before Pilate, confirming she was healed after 12 years of bleeding by touching the edge of Jesus's garment.
Testimony in the Acts of Pilate: In the second Greek form of the Acts of Pilate (7), when the Jews argue against Jesus, Veronica testifies, "Twelve years I was in an issue of blood, and I only touched the edge of his garment, and directly I was cured".
Response of the Jews: According to the text, the Jews dismiss her testimony, stating, "Our law does not admit the testimony of a woman".
Connection to Tradition: While the canonical Gospels (Mark 5, Luke 8) leave her unnamed, the Gospel of Nicodemus gives her the name Veronica (a Latinization of Berenikē/Beronike). This text serves as the foundation for the later tradition that she was the woman who wiped Jesus’s face on the way to Calvary.

@SecVetAffairs @depvetaffairs No one should ever be allowed to turn your life into a pity party which stills your dignity. Give that power to no one , and definitely not a warrior.
