Extract
A 50-year-old male presented with progressive breathlessness and generalised muscular weakness for the last 10 days. He felt extremely weak and could barely walk due to breathlessness. His dyspnoea was increased when lying down and decreased by an upright posture. He had no other respiratory or cardiac symptoms.
Abstract
