Ken Shared "UGC Picmaster Challenge" - 8 Picmonics

With Picmonic, facts become pictures. We've taken what the science shows - image mnemonics work - but we've boosted the effectiveness by building and associating memorable characters, interesting audio stories, and built-in quizzing. Whether you're studying for your classes or getting ready for a big exam, we're here to help.

Waldenstrom Macroglobulinemia
B-cell lymphoma with monoclonal IgM production
Generalized lymphadenopathy
Increased serum proteins with M spike (comprised of IgM)
Bleeding - viscous serum results in defective platelet aggregation
Cold Agglutinin Autoimmune Hemolytic Anemia (C-AIHA)
Raynaud phenomenon
Visual and neurologic deficits (e.g. retinal hemorrhage or stroke) - IgM (large pentamer) causes serum hyperciscosity
Treatment
Acute complications: plasmapheresis (removes IgM from the serum)
