Episode 62 - The Man in the High (Lymph Node) Castle | Castleman Disease
Description
Philip K. Dick once wrote, “Perhaps if you know you are insane then you are not insane. Or you are becoming sane, finally. Waking up.” Waking up, that is, not to the alternative history universe where the Axis won WWII but rather, to a new bonus episode on Castleman disease! Join Cale, Bashar and Nick as we explore one of Haem’s most zebra diagnoses, and do whatever we can to put off Nick’s clot season for just a bit longer.
