'ello!    This time round we were sadly unable to meet face-to-face and produce all those funny little videos you love but we did have a good chat about BP monitoring, triage, and clinical assessment of neurological presentations.     Thank you to our case contributor Jay, and to everyone who got involved on SoMe with the #MysteryDiagnosis.    Have YOU got a case?
