1. Steven is a 44-year-old male who is 5 foot 11 inches tall and weighs 182 pounds. Over the last month he has lost approximately 10 pounds, which he blames on loss of appetite and fatigue. When he went to his family doctor with flu-like symptoms, a blood test revealed a very high white blood cell count, low platelets, and low hemoglobin. The doctor told him to proceed to the hospital for admission to rule out acute leukemia. Further lab tests are pending. His admitting orders include a regular diet. Steven does not have a significant medical history. He is married, has three children, and enjoys a successful career.
