Thrombocytopenia most likely due to old coronary infarct, anterior aspect of the right external capsule.,5.  Atherosclerotic cardiovascular disease.,6.  Hyperlipidemia.,HOSPITAL COURSE: , The patient was admitted to the emergency room.  Plavix was started  in addition to baby aspirin.  He was kept on oral Zithromax for his cough.  He was given Xopenex treatment, because of his respiratory distress.  Carotid ultrasound was reviewed and revealed a 50 to 69% obstruction of left internal carotid.  Dr. X saw him in consultation and recommended CT angiogram.  This showed no significant obstructive lesion other than what was known on the ultrasound.  Head MRI was done and revealed the above findings.  The patient was begun on PT and improved.  By discharge, he had much improved strength in his right arm.  He had no further progressions.  His cough improved with oral Zithromax and nebulizer treatments.  His platelets also improved as well.  By discharge, his platelets was up to 107,000.  His H&H was stable at 41.7 and 14.6 and his white count was 4300 with a normal differential.  Chest x-ray revealed a mild elevated right hemidiaphragm, but no infiltrate.  Last chemistry panel on December 5, 2003, sodium 137, potassium 4.0, chloride 106, CO2 23, glucose 88, BUN 17, creatinine 0.7, calcium was 9.1.  PT/INR on admission was 1.03, PTT 34.7.  At the time of discharge, the patient's cough was much improved.  His right arm weakness has much improved.  His lung examination has just occasional rhonchi.  He was changed to a metered dose inhaler with albuterol.  He is being discharged home.  An echocardiogram revealed mild concentric LVH with normal left ventricular function with an EF of 57%, moderate left atrial enlargement and diastolic dysfunction with mild mitral regurgitation.

Blood culture and wound cultures were unremarkable.  Chest x-ray was unremarkable.,HOSPITAL COURSE: , The patient was admitted to the General Medical floor and treated with intravenous ceftriaxone and topical Lotrimin.  On this regimen, his lower extremity edema and erythema resolved quite rapidly.,Because of urinary frequency, a bladder scan was done suggesting about 600 cc of residual urine.  A Foley catheter was inserted and was productive of approximately 500 cc of urine.  The patient was prescribed Flomax 0.4 mg daily.  24 hours later, the Foley catheter was removed and a bladder scan demonstrated 60 cc of residual urine after approximately eight hours.,At the time of this dictation, the patient was ambulating minimally, however, not sufficiently to resume independent living.
CT Scan of Brain with Contrast  
Medical specialty:  Neurology

The symptoms resolved within hours and recurred the following day. He was then evaluated locally and HCT revealed an old right parietal stroke. Carotid duplex scan revealed a "high grade stenosis" of the RICA. Cerebral Angiogram revealed 90%RICA and 50%LICA stenosis. He was then transferred to UIHC Vascular Surgery for carotid endarterectomy.

Schillings test was inconclusive dure to inability to complete a 24-hour urine collection. He was placed on empiric Vitamin B12 1000mcg IM qd x 7 days; then qMonth. He was also placed on Thiamine 100mg qd, Folate 1mg qd, and ASA 325mg qd. His ESR and CRP were elevated on admission, but fell as his UTI was treated.,EEG showed diffuse slowing and focal slowing in the theta-delta range in the right temporal area. HCT with contrast on 1/19/93 revealed a gyriform enhancing lesion in the left parietal lobe consistent with a new infarct; and an old right parietal hypodensity (infarct). His confusion was ascribed to the UTI in the face of old and new strokes and Vitamin B12 deficiency. He was lost to follow-up and did not undergo carotid endarterectomy.
