Slight interval decrease in the patient's 2 previously identified right sided pulmonary nodules. Slight decrease in the one measurable mediastinal lymph node. The patient's other lymphadenopathy is probably also improved but difficult to measure due to the technique. Worsening airspace disease in a somewhat interstitial pattern. Pulmonary edema would be the first consideration. Infection would be the second consideration. Severe centrilobar and paraseptal emphysema with basilar predominately peripheral reticular opacities consistent with fibrotic lung disease..

Minimal aortic valve sclerosis with no stenosis. Moderate mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation. Estimated PA systolic pressure is severely elevated (68.6 mmHg). Compared to the prior report dated 7/3/2018; there is a worsening right heart dilatation and function. There is increased mitral and tricuspid valve regurgitation. No significant change in estimated PA pressure.. In 2021, Heart rate: abnormal (abnormal) abnormal. In 2021, Pulmonary arterial pressure: 68.6 mmhg (High) Severely elevated. In 2021, Ultrasound scan: no evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the... (Inconclusive) No evidence of deep venous thrombosis in the bilateral lower extremities. In 2021, White blood cell count: no leukocytosis (Inconclusive) No leukocytosis.         Concomitant medications included unknown statins. On 02-0CT-2020, Co- suspect drug chemotherapy  is given to the patient to treat small cell lung  cancer metastatic, Metastases to liver and Metastases to lymph nodes.  On an unspecified date(s) in 2021, the patient had radiation of his head and lung for his cancer. Initially  on 18-SEP-2020,the patient started with 10mg of firdapse , On 02-OCT-2020, the dose  increased to 20mg. On 22-SEP-2020, while in the hospital the patient experienced blood pressure fluctuations. the patient experienced a headache that was "4/10.Treatment medications included acetaminophen; aspirin; caffeine and ibuprofen for headache, treated with prednisone 60mg and methyl prednisolone for immune mediated pneumonitis,On an unspecified date, the patient was treated with midodrine, patient was cautiously diuresed with IV furosemide bolus dosing followed by gtt (drip) given "soft pressures. the patient was treated with low dose diltiazem For paroxysmal a-fib (atrial fibrillation) and MAT (medication-assisted treatment). patient was initially given amiodarone 400mg daily x 7 days for blood pressure, then the dose reduced to 200mg, On an unspecified date, patient was treated with  low dose metoprolol (12.5 mg), patient was treated with Xarelto (rivaroxaban) 15 mg daily for stroke risk reduction.On an unspecified date, the patient's diuretic (presumed IV Lasix drip) was transitioned to torsemide 5 mg, orally daily.patient  received atovaquone for PJP (Pneumocystis jiroveci pneumonia) prophylaxis and treated with empiric antibiotics for CAP (community acquired pneumonia). On unspecified date, steroid regimen was increased.On an unspecified date, the patient's respiratory symptoms improved and was weaned to 2 liters of oxygen. While hospitalized, the patient received non drug treatment like PT (physical therapy) and OT (occupational therapy), the patient was treated with supplemental O2 (oxygen) and  IVF (intravenous fluids).
