About this listen

In this episode, we dive into a fascinating and often overlooked aspect of rheumatology: complications from diabetes that can mimic rheumatic diseases. Dr. Schiopu kicks off the discussion by shedding light on Diabetic Myonecrosis, a painful muscle condition that can be easily mistaken for other rheumatic disorders. We then explore Scleroderma, a skin-thickening muscle disorder that resembles systemic sclerosis (SSC) but has distinct underlying mechanisms. Dr. Schiopu shares invaluable insights on how to approach complex rheumatology consults in the hospital, emphasizing the importance of thoughtful diagnostic reasoning. She also discusses why sometimes the best approach in medicine is to avoid unnecessary tests and treatments, prioritizing patient care and accuracy in diagnosis.
