Patient Case Studies
Case 1:
A 35-year-old woman presents with the following symptoms:
- Persistent dry cough for several months
- Shortness of breath, particularly when climbing stairs
- Fatigue and occasional low-grade fever
- Swollen lymph nodes in the neck and chest
- Reddish bumps on her legs, accompanied by tenderness and slight swelling
Additional notes: She reports no history of joint pain, but has noticed blurry vision and eye redness in the past few weeks. A chest X-ray reveals bilateral hilar lymphadenopathy (enlarged lymph nodes in the chest).
Case 2:
A 42-year-old man presents with the following symptoms:
- Sudden onset of red, painful nodules on the lower legs
- Shortness of breath and chest pain that worsens with deep breathing
- Fatigue and weight loss over the past few months
- Enlarged lymph nodes under the arms and in the groin area
- Blurred vision and a feeling of discomfort in the eyes
Additional notes: He has no significant joint pain or stiffness but mentions that he has felt “run down” for a long time. Blood tests show elevated calcium levels, and a chest X-ray confirms the presence of swollen lymph nodes in the lungs.
Question: Based on the provided symptoms and patient histories, if both patients have the same disease, what is the most likely diagnosis?
