I am a busy general internal medicine, stroke, geriatric medicine and acute medicine specialist in the UK. I continually add updates but the only time I have to upload more is when I am on my holidays and evenings and weekends. I also thank my wonderful wife and children for their patience when I disappear to dedicate my nights and weekends and holidays to working on this. It is the result of 1000s of hours of work over 10 years both content generation and software development. I hope it saves you time and helps you with your studies. I hope this collection of notes is useful. If there are any errors or omissions or comments please email me at drokane@gmail.com
