CASE OF THE MONTH
A 58-year old woman with no known past medical history
A 58-year old woman with no known past medical history, presented with nausea, vomiting and diarrhea for 3 weeks after a recent trip to South America. Persistent nausea and vomiting led to limited oral intake. She had no history of hematemesis, blood, melena or mucous in her stool. She also described pain and weakness in her lower limbs while walking. Three days prior to presentation, her weakness progressed to the point where she needed a wheelchair. She also noticed abdominal distension and started to have decreased urine output.
