Hello Marie and thank you for mentioning my post here. I’m always thrilled when an Emergency Physician (in this case, Dr. Sam Ghali) schools his colleagues on the importance of taking women’s symptoms seriously, and regularly challenges them with complex case studies like this one so they’ll continue learning that women are not just small men. Take care, be well. . . ♥
