HISTORY OF PRESENT ILLNESS: Mr. Barua is a 42 year old from Bangladesh who presents with chest tightness, shortness of breath, and tachycardia. Dr. J.K. McClain of cardiology is evaluating his heart condition. The patient has had the resent onset of hemoptysis. He was treated for TB in Bangladesh 15 years ago. This has prompted the concern of whether his treatment for TB was adequate or whether there is another cause for his hemoptysis. The duration of his TB treatment was apparently adequate, according to his wife. But no records are available. In addition, the patient had thrombosis of the auxiliary artery treated last year at Hill Crest. He had an embolectomy and has been on Coumadin since. INR is significantly elevated at 16. Nonetheless, because of the cavitary lesions that are seen in the right and left upper lobes, the possibility of TB has been raised. Ancillary history was given by the patients wife Nepor, with the patient translating for her from the Hindu language.
PAST HISTORY: TB in the past. Embolectomy at Hill Crest last year.
