UPDATE:
I have added approximately 1500 new cards to this deck. These should be seen as supplemental. They are based mostly on Corpendium chapters. Unlock as you see fit. The GI and Cardiology section is unique in that I used the Model of EM to create them. They are comprehensive on their own and can be used to replace the decks in the original.
