Excessive secretions likely radiation induced 6
7 INITIAL NP VISIT Obvious symptom burden: malignant pain, dyspnea with copious secretions, severe anxiety. Providers not willing to provide pain medication. Patient begins to discuss her concerns with her prognosis and states she wishes the doctor would tell her if she is going to die. She says If I only have months to live I want to have fun, I don t want to do chemotherapy and make myself sick. I am already sick enough. Patient expresses her wishes to not pursue chemotherapy if it will only extend her prognosis by months. MDPOA is completed and MOST form indicating DNR status and comfort measures. However her MDPOA lives in a different state and she has not spoken with her children in years. NP collaborates with oncology expressing concerns for a potential prognosis of weeks to months and goals aligning with hospice. Oncology feels they need to wait to stage the cancer and consider immunotherapy. They will not discuss prognosis.
