Case study: Sarita

Sarita is a 22-year-old overseas student who has been living in Australia for 18 months. She has been very fit, participating in many athletic events since childhood. Except for glandular fever as a teenager, Sarita has an unremarkable medical history. Over the past weeks she has experienced significant lethargy, anorexia, general aches and pains and non-specific bruising. She was reviewed by her GP who ordered blood tests and prescribed analgesics and anti-inflammatory medications. As her symptoms were not improving, Sarita was admitted yesterday for further investigations in view of an abnormal blood count.
