ILLNESS (HPI): 1. Mr. John Anderson is an 89-year-old male with a 6-hour history of chest pain. 2. He woke up suddenly last night about 2:30 am with pain he rates a 7 out of 10. He notes, it feels like a rhinoceros [is] sitting on my chest. The pain is mostly in his left chest and left shoulder, moving a little into his right shoulder. The pain lessens when he sits up and is worse on exertion. It is constant. In the past 2 weeks, he has experienced short (3-minute) bouts of similar pain (7 out of 10) which are also aggravated by exertion and get better when he sits up. These occur at night: he wakes up suddenly, hot and stressed, sweating and with a racing heart. He observes that this might be due to the hot weather, but admits his A/C is working fine. He reports feeling weak, fatigued, and unrefreshed because this causes him to lose sleep. Before two weeks ago, he got up at night to urinate occasionally, but sees a urologist and takes no medication for this. Before two weeks ago, he slept on one pillow; for the past two weeks, he has slept on 3 or 4 if he wakes up at night. Taking two baby aspirin has resolved the problem until last night. Mr. Anderson reports shortness of breath on exertion, such as after walking 2 miles or walking up 2 flights of stairs. He also relates feeling faint when he stands up too fast, and has fainted 5 times, the last being 3 years ago. Today he reports feeling dizzy and explains that his head hurts. 20 years ago (age 69) Mr. Anderson suffered a myocardial infarction and was hospitalized for 4 days. Before this, he had acquired a 25 pack-year smoking history (half a pack a day over fifty years) and consumed alcohol. After his MI, he stopped smoking and drinking; he notes it was easy to quit drinking. He also lost 57 lb. Today, he weighs 173 lb. and maintains a healthy diet. His exercise regimen includes walks and cutting the grass. Mr. Andersons blood pressure is slightly elevated. His physician observed a heart murmur 30 years ago which is still observed today. He takes one 81mg aspirin PO daily and a multivitamin. His last stress test 10 years ago was good. His father had coronary artery disease and died at age 75 of a heart attack.
