PFC with a Cough
I have a final exam on friday, so thinking through these case studies is actually fairly helpful for me in studying.
Situation: You are deployed to Afghanistan and your team is co-located with a NG infantry company on a fairly remote FOB, and you are the highest level provider on site. You are running sick call one morning, and a young PFC shows up complaining of a cough and "generally feeling like shit."
You have a reasonably well-stocked aid station at your disposal, but you didn't bring your lab kit with you this time. No fancy schmancy labs, no imaging.
Vitals: T100.5, P72, BP 110/70, R12
What do you want to know? Lets flesh out the history, and then move onto physical exam.
