HOUSE

HOUSE CASE #1 

During today's class, we had our first House case.

For my very first time, I became a professional doctor. Throughout the class, I learnt that a doctor does not only need to be confident, but also needs to be careful. Since many diagnosis have simliar symptoms, in order to identify the real problem of patients, a professional doctor needs to have certain tests to estimate patients' problems. Moreover, a doctor needs to be careful enough to examine these sympotoms and test results so that the doctor could determine the real problem of the patient.

The patient for House case #1:

He is an 18-year-old senior at high school. He is a cross-country runner. However, after today’s practice, he started to vomit and had a sever headache. Also, he felt extremely tired. He was confused about why he was sent to the emergency room. 

My first three diagnoses: Heat stroke/ aneurysm / Migraines
