20F Lupus clinical complexity EHR deidentified horcrux links to all three admissions and follow up

 Summary: 

This patient was first presented to Prof Michele Meltzer  in Jan 25, 2022 (link: https://youtu.be/X5NBa_0VVUw?feature=shared) in this CPD linked here: https://medicinedepartment.blogspot.com/2022/12/?m=1 and she first presented to the presenters in September 2022 which is recorded in the link below but to summarise it drastically, she had nephrotic glomerular proteinuria, cutaneous vasculitic lesions, CNS vasculitic lessons (investigated for altered cognition) and endocardial and pericardial inflammation (acute heart failure with pericardial effusion)that was attributed to lupus in view of a strong ANA positivity particularly of the ds-dna fraction in ELISA. https://medicinedepartment.blogspot.com/2024/08/first-admission-september-2022-20f-with.html?m=1

Second admission: She again got admitted in December 2022 with headache, altered sensorium and meningeal signs, which was associated with a minor CNS bleed on MRI was later attributed to warfarin (link:

Her discharge after September 2022 was relatively uneventful on immunosuppressives and while her cardiac and CNS issues were the first to resolve even during admission, her proteinuria also subsided and she gradually withdrew all immunosuppressives in a year with a brief period of iatrogenic Cushing in between. Recently in June 2024, she presented with an ankle flare along with anasarca that also revealed a nephrotic relapse on evaluation of 24 hour urine protein as archived in her PaJR conversations here:https://drsaicharankulkarni.blogspot.com/2022/12/20f-sle.html?m=1

Her 3rd admission recently in July 2024 was for a right hypochondrial pleuritic pain that ultimately revealed a large hydropneumothorax along with multiple lung abscesses. Again this was possibly an iatrogenic result of the high dose immunosuppressives for just a month! There's still a persistent diagnostic uncertainty around the etiology of her lung abscesses and hydropneumothorax as her dry cough persists and her last antibiotics choice was quinolone!https://drsaicharankulkarni.blogspot.com/2022/12/20f-sle.html?m=1
