In this special episode of Around the Rheum, recorded at the 2025 CRA Annual Scientific Meeting in Calgary, UBC rheumatology resident Dr. Alec Yu presents a complex medical mystery involving a 42-year-old woman experiencing progressive chest pain, shortness of breath, and myalgias. Listen as our very own Sherlock Holmes and Dr. Watson (i.e. Janet and Dan) reason their way through the case, uncovering a series of diagnostic twists. This episode underscores the importance of thorough history-taking, avoiding diagnostic anchoring, and keeping an open mind throughout a challenging diagnostic journey.
Dr. Alec Yu is currently a PGY-4 resident doing his Rheumatology subspecialty training at the University of British Columbia in Vancouver. He has a particular interest in inner city health.
