Pt reports knee pains at night which have been quite painful and he describes this as aching but is not particularly bothered during the day. Pt reports some constipation over the past week.Marked weakness of the quadriceps and biceps femoris muscles bilaterally. Other possibilities include Amiodarone - induced neuromyopathy. Renal consultation: over the course of this hospitalization his symptoms have worsened and full evaluation is consistent with Guillain-Barre. I am being consulted for initiation of plasmapheresis. Pt developed the onset of some orthostasis and weakness, symptoms have progressed to marked proximal and distal lower extremity weakness. Pt has noted some paresthesia of his hands ad increasing weakness of his lower extremities. He finds it extremely difficult at this time to get out of bed. It is agreed the pt should be initiated on plasmapheresis. We will arrange to get a subclavian or IJ line placed for plasmapheresis and will use one plasma volume exchange replacing with albumin. Currently he has no evidence for marked pulmonary involvement. We will follow his FVC's. Per 1 year follow up: Pt has recovered.

"Possible" differential dx included apnea, dehydration, erythema multiforme, heart arrest, meningitis, sepsis and shock. On 4/25/01, the child presented to the physician's office with a fever of 101F, associated vomiting, lethargy, dehydration and a generalized rash that was dx'd as erythema multiforme. The parents were instructed to bring the child back the following day, where the rash was still described as erythema multiforme; however, it was not as generalized and more discrete. The child was taking an unspecified Chinese herbal medicine and had eaten a new king of fish that night. One physician noted the possibility of a Vibrio infection from ingesting infected raw fish. The child was referred to a dermatologist who reported that he never saw anything like the rash. No evidence of vasculitis was noted. The next day, the child was reportedly doing fine. She was eating, drinking and the rash was getting better. On 4/27/01, the physician called the pt's home and wanted the child to be seen again; however, the family was reluctant because the child was afebrile and the rash faded. On the night of 4/28/01, the child presented at the ER with a fever, crying with no tears, dehydration, vomiting and a florid "violatious" rash. The ER physicians were unable to insert an IV line into the child and she went into shock and died. The family refused an autopsy. The death certificate listed the cause of death as meningococcal meningitis. The pediatrician reported that the cause of death could not be meningococcal meningitis because the cultures were negative and the rash resolved without treatment. Another physician also questioned the dx of meningococcal meningitis. Conflicting information from this physician indicated that the child was seen on 4/22/01 by the PCP and a maculopapular rash was dx'd as an atypical measles type rash. Death certificate states cause and manner of death undetermined; autopsy not performed due to religious reasons.
