Question: I am in shock right now! Need another opinion,to make a decision in regards to doctor and staff behavior:(:(.? For 12 yrs i have dealt with a beastly disabling autoimmune disease called "Mixed Collagen Vascular Disease" which means certain protiens {antibodies} Targetmybody.Ihavelupus,ra,sjogrens,rayn… recently changed Rheumatologist.I was taken off methotrexate {she didnt think i had polymyositis} came back vaca my cpk count was up to 2,500 which means i had lots of muscle damage norm is 21.put on lge doses of pred & metho.I also have taken plaquenil for 12 yrs keeps lupus stable.
i called to reschedule appt.Was told i had to get blood work before refill on methotrex.,didnt hear from them called had to have rx faxed to them yearly eye exam for plaquenil to get refill.Called optometrist to fax them results.waited,in immense pain muscle cramps,never should you be taken off plaquenil or any meds that fast.fri spoke w nasty nurse,now have sores in mouth its tues.no Dr.NO MEDS,NO CALL.HELP!
Answer: You CANNOT wait around for them to contact you.
Contact your doctor's answering service right NOW and inform them you will be in office the minute they open, appointment or no appointment. If the pain is too much to handle then it's time for you to go to the Emergency Room. If you have any problems when you get there, lie down on the floor in front of the receptionist and start screeching loudly about the pain. You WILL be assisted.

The patient has a known case of Rheumatic Heart Disease (RHD). Patient underwent Mitral Valve Repair (MVR) in 1999 and has been on Coumadin therapy with no regular follow up of bleeding parameters.
Six days prior to admission, patient experienced headache and dizziness, but no consult was made. Instead, patient self-medicated with Bonamine which afforded relief.
Three days prior to admission, headache persisted with increased severity, which prompted patient to seek medical assistance at FEU Hospital. Mobic and Iterax were given.
Few hours prior to admission, patient was noted to have changes in sensorium and relatives decided to seek consult at Philippine Heart Center.
Upon admission, patient was noted to be unresponsive, stuporous, and speechless, with GCS of 7 (E2V1M4).
Past Medical History
The patient has denies any history of Diabetes Mellitus and Hypertension. As mentioned, she had a history of Rheumatic Heart Disease and had Mitral Valve Repair in 1999. She is a non-smoker and non alcoholic drinker.

II. Anatomy and Physiology of the Brain
Blood Supply of the Brain
The blood supply of the brain derives from the aortic arch via the right innominate, left common carotid and left subclavian arteries. It includes the conducting and penetrating vessels.
The venous system draining the brain is divided into vertebral veins that receive blood from the cerebellum. The cerebral veins have no valves. All the veins of the brain terminate into dural sinuses.
External Brain Structures
The brain is grossly divided into three main areas: the cerebrum, the brain stem and the cerebellum.
The largest portion of the brain is the cerebrum. It consists of two hemispheres that are connected together at the corpus callosum. The cerebrum is often divided into five lobes that are responsible for different brain functions. The cerebrum’s surface—the neocortex—is convoluted into hundreds of folds. The neocortex is where all the higher brain functions take place.
The cerebellum lies in the posterior fossa, separated from the cerebrum by tentorium cerebelli. It exerts ipsilateral control. It has three principal lobes. The Flocculonodular lobe is part of the vestibular system. It controls muscle tone, equilibrium and body position. The Anterior lobe receives most of the proprioreceptive and interoceptive input from head and body. It controls automatic movements and coordination. The posterior lobe coordinates voluntary movement.
The ventricles
The ventricles are a complex series of spaces and tunnels through the center of the brain. They secrete cerebrospinal fluid, which suspends the brain in the skull. They also provide a route for chemical messengers that are widely distributed through the central nervous system.
Cerebrospinal fluid
Cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) is a colorless liquid that bathes the brain and spine. It is formed within the ventricles of the brain, and it circulates throughout the central nervous system. It fills the ventricles and meninges, allowing the brain to “float” within the skull.
The Meninges
The meninges are layers of tissue that separate the skull and the brain.
The Dura mater is the tough and fibrous membrane. The Arachnoid membrane is the delicate membrane and contains subarachnoid fluid. Pia mater is the vascular membrane.
The subarachnoid space is fprmed by the arachnoid membrane and the pia mater.
Normal Flow of Cerebrospinal Fluid
Cerebrospinal fluid is produced in the Choroid plexuses of the ventricle. It flows from the lateral ventricles to the third ventricle passing through the interventricular foramen. Then it goes through the cerebral aqueduct to the fourth ventricle. From there fluid flows to the subarachnoid cisterns through the foramina of Magendie and Luschka to bathe the cerebral hemispheres. It exits through the saggital sinus to be absorbed by the arachnoid villi.
III. Pathophysiology of Subarachnoid Hemorrhage (SAH)
The term subarachnoid hemorrhage (SAH) refers to extravasation of blood into the subarachnoid space between the pial and arachnoid membranes. SAH comprises half of spontaneous atraumatic intracranial hemorrhages, the other half consist of bleeding that occurs within the brain parenchyma. Intracranial hemorrhage as a whole comprises 20% of all strokes.
Nontraumatic SAH usually is the result of a ruptured cerebral aneurysm or AVM. Blood extravasation into the subarachnoid space has a detrimental effect on both local and global brain function and leads to high morbidity and mortality rates.
The classic clinical picture of SAH is marked by the onset of very severe headache, tagged as the “worst in life”. Other associated signs and symptoms are loss of consciousness, seizures, diplopia and focal neurologic signs.
The early complications of SAH are rebleeding and hydrocephalus. Other complications include vasospasm, neurologic deficits, hypothalamic dysfunction and hyponatremia. Vasospasm from arterial smooth muscle contraction is symptomatic in 36% of patients. Neurologic deficits from cerebral ischemia peak at days 4-12. Hypothalamic dysfunction causes excessive sympathetic stimulation, which may lead to myocardial ischemia or labile detrimental BP. Hyponatremia may result from cerebral salt wasting (SIADH). Nosocomial pneumonia and other complications of critical care may occur.

Pathological Cycle Resulting from Increased Intracranial Pressure
Surgical Treatment
Ventriculo-peritoneal Shunting
The ventriculo-peritoneal shunt diverts CSF from a lateral ventricle or the spinal subarachnoid space to the peritoneal cavity. A tube is passed from the lateral ventricle through an occipital burr-hole subcutaneously through the posterior aspect of neck and paraspinal region to the peritoneal cavity through a small incision in the right lower quadrant.
IV. Nursing Diagnoses
1. Ineffective Breathing Pattern r/t neuromuscular impairment
2. Ineffective airway clearance related totracheobronchial secretions
3. Altered Level of Consciousness r/t decreased cerebral perfusion
4. Impaired Physical Mobility r/t neuromuscular impairment
5. Risk for Injury r/t possible shunt malfunction
6. Risk for Infection r/t post-surgical wound
V. Discharge Care Plan (METHODS)

Answer: The mediastinum is a area in the chest between the lungs, that contains the heart, the windpipe, and the oesophagus. The mediastinum also contains lymph nodes. So you need to know what tissue/organ the tumour is made from in in order to classify it.

Answer: The learned previous answerers do not see the trees but only the forest. The important thing here is the neurological aspect, not the nosebleed which probably is due to weak capillaries although it may be due to other causes. And I'm sorry but from here the only thing I can recommend is an in depth neurological examination, which apparently has already started (EEG) apart from that brain MRI and maybe other tests. And then she will know. Right now I wont even tell you what it COULD be. All the best. Oh and don't forget the green tea.
