Misdiagnosis

Why might an athlete be incorrectly diagnosed and treated for this condition? Does an accurate and thorough patient history determine proper diagnosis?

 

Differential Diagnosis

What varying specialties might be involved in this differential diagnostic process and why? Is cranial nerve testing necessary? Define your reasoning.Misdiagnosis

NeurologicalMechanism

This ANSassociated disease is a neurological mechanism involving the dysfunction of a major cranial nerve. Identify the cranial nerve and the associated branch of the ANS involved. Define and explain how the cardiovascular system is adversely affected by this ANS division dysfunction.
