Ms. Ribeiro returned to the clinic as her initial symptoms have not decreased but in fact worsened. She also has developed multiple new symptoms. Her internal cough has intensified. It is now producing yellow mucus. More concerningly, the sputum is occasionally blood- streaked. Her cough has been going on for about 2 weeks, but the bloody mucus only developed in the last few days. Besides the cough her breathing feels more labored and her chest hurts when she tries to inhale deeply. She is still feeling weak and generally fatigued.
