Read the patient scenario and identify at least 3 medical terms along with their definitions
A 56-year-old patient arrives for evaluation after experiencing a sudden episode where they briefly lost consciousness and collapsed to the floor unexpectedly. They report a long standing history of breathing problems and nasal congestion that comes and goes over many months, along with occasional facial pressure near the sinuses. Earlier in the week, they developed a widespread itchy rash on their arms after eating a new type of seafood, followed by swelling and difficulty breathing that required emergency treatment. During today’s visit, the patient denies any current chest pain or shortness of breath, although the provider still refers them to a heart specialist for further testing. While speaking with the clinician, the patient’s right arm begins to make involuntary, jerky movements they cannot control. Additional testing shows a blockage in one of the patient’s blood vessels.
