Abstract
A 67-year-old male presented with a one-year history of fatigue, cold intolerance, malaise and an unintentional weight loss of ~80 lbs over the course of the preceding 12 months. Two years prior to presentation, he recalled development of Raynaud’s phenomenon. Five months prior to presentation heKeywords
