Diagnosis: Joint pain Primary: Yes Evidences: Bilateral pain Pain not associated with trauma Tenderness with palpation Model Rationale: At this point in the diagnostic process, you can only provide Mrs. Tillman with preliminary diagnoses. In order to determine a definitive diagnosis, more diagnostic testing is required. In primary care, it is common to have multiple concerns in one visit. These two diagnoses may be related or are two unrelated situations, nonetheless, each diagnosis requires individual diagnostic investigation. Mrs. Tillman’s primary diagnosis is joint pain, while her secondary diagnosis is fatigue. The preliminary diagnosis of joint pain is supported by the evidence collected in the physical exam and reported by Mrs. Tillman: tenderness with palpation, pain not associated with trauma, and bilateral pain Musculoskeletal Shoshanna Tillman Follow Up Sick Visit Shadow Health Treatment Plan. The secondary diagnosis of fatigue is supported by the evidence reported by Mrs. Tillman: an unusual lack of energy, feeling tired, and having difficulty completing tasks due to feeling tired. When making a disease diagnosis, it is important to note that disease diagnosis documentation is permanent in the patient’s records and cannot be undone. Therefore, if you do not have the evidence and diagnostic testing to support a disease diagnosis it is best to collect more data before determining a definitive diagnosis, even if the patient’s signs and symptoms point to a likely disease. |

Description: Mrs. Tillman has been drinking large quantities of coffee to make up for her low energy. |
||
 |
Do you take caffeine? |
Question |
 |
I do. I’ll have somewhere between 2 to 3 cups of coffee in the morning, then another one or two in the afternoon. |
|
|
OK, but too much caffeine is not good for your health |
Educate |
|
Ah, OK. |
|
|
Model Statement: “I know that you have been feeling very tired and that the coffee helps give you energy bursts, but the caffeine may also be contributing to your ongoing fatigue. Decreasing your coffee intake a little bit can help curb those energy dips.” |
|
Description: Mrs. Tillman has been feeling very fatigued and reports not having a lot of time or energy to exercise, but movement like walking has helped her pain and stiffness. |
||
|
Do you exercise? |
Question |
|
I probably could be exercising more. I just don’t have a lot of time or energy. I’ll walk the dog 3 or 4 times a week, which is something. But I used to do these yoga classes, and spin classes, but those don’t really make sense for me now. |
|
|
I understand your concern but you should always exercise |
Educate |
|
Ah, I see. |
|
|
Model Statement: “I know that finding the time and the energy to exercise is difficult given your exhaustion. However, taking regular, short movement breaks like walking and stretching may help alleviate your pain, improve joint stiffness, and even reduce your fatigue.” |
|
Description: Mrs. Tillman has still been having constant fatigue and joint pain in her hands and wrists; she is frustrated about her symptoms and anxious about her health. |
||
|
What are you sad about? |
Question |

Well, I’m still feeling so fatigued and I’m just sad because I feel like it’s not getting any better . . . I just don’t want to feel like this anymore. |
|
|
Am sorry about that |

Description: Mrs. Tillman’s art gallery requires a lot of her time and energy to sustain, but with her symptoms she is worried about her business and her family’s financial security. |
||
|
Do you make enough money at your job? |
Question |
|
Now, the gallery is turning a profit and we’re making sufficient income. It’s still a new business, so it’s taken a while to get it here, but that could change. Running a small business is hard and uncertain, especially in the art world. |
|
|
Any stress? |
Question |
|
Yeah. I’m really stressed with everything on my plate right now. |

I’m sorry about that Musculoskeletal Shoshanna Tillman Follow Up Sick Visit Shadow Health Treatment Plan |
