Rationale for change

changed formatting, also can we remove the "more common in HUS" and "1/5 patients" and all that and add it to extra, it bogs the card down and honestly it can be just as effective in the extra section, thoughts?

Text Text
Extra
- *However, only MAHA and thrombocytopenia are required for diagnosis

- Fever in 20% of patients
- Renal symptoms in 50% of patients, more common in HUS
- Neurologic symptoms in 67% of patients, more common in TTP

- HUS presents with similar symptoms, almost always characterized by normal PT / PTT

- Fever due to inflammation from small vessel occlusion and tissue damage
- Patients can have Burr cells due to kidney damage
- TTP can occur during pregnancy or in the postpartum period
