Patient describes flank pain is from constant coughing and it hurts to press on it.  No sick contacts.  Upon evaluation in the emergency room patient has a white count of 20.5 increased platelets left shift BNP 43 lactate 1.4 negative troponins slight dehydration BUN 23 creatinine 1.58 urinalysis looked normal no COVID no flu a chest x-ray was obtained that showed patchy opacities in the left lung overall appearance favors acute infection.  Patient's vitals are quite stable.  Review of Systems     All 13 point review of systems were reviewed with the patient and are negative except as specified in the HPI  Physical Exam/Objective  Vital Signs (most recent and range for last 24 hours)  Temp (CEL) 37.0 (37.0-37.0)  Temp (FAHR) 98.6 (98.6-98.6), BP 140/47 (119-158)/(47-111), HR 87 (58-87), RR 20 (20-20), O2Sat 94 (94-94) Neurologic (most recent and range for last 24 hours)  GCS 15(15-15)     Patient Weight  Current Daily Weight:    69.1 kg    02/02/23  Previous Daily Weight:    69.1 kg    02/02/23    Patient Height  Current Height:    176.4 cm    02/02/23        General: Alert and oriented, No Acute distress Eye: Pupils are equal, round and reactive to light HEENT: Normocephalic, atraumatic Neck: Supple, normal range of motion Oropharynx: No erythema or drainage.

Normal mood and affect. cranial nerves grossly intact    Assessment/Plan       1. Pneumonia   J18.9   Present on admission on chest x-ray.  -Start patient on broad-spectrum antibiotics to cover community-acquired pneumonia for atypical and typical infection.  -Check Legionella and strep pneumo and procalcitonin levels.  -De-escalate antibiotic therapy as able.   2. Elevated WBC count   D72.829   Likely due to pneumonia at this time.  -We will continue to trend CBC to monitor white count and platelets.   3. AKI (acute kidney injury)   N17.9   This is dehydration.  -Normal saline as ordered for about 2 L time and then reevaluate in the morning.   4. Hyponatremia   E87.1   Slight hyponatremia likely due to dehydration.  -Rehydration therapy as above.   5. Hypertension   I10   Blood pressure appears to be elevated.  She is taking lisinopril hydrochlorothiazide at home we will continue with the lisinopril and will hold hydrochlorothiazide during the hospitalization.   6. Hyperlipidemia   E78.5   She has history of hypercholesterolemia latest cholesterol in September was 161.  -She can barely take any Crestor and has difficulty tolerating statins.
