He has no current diagnosed medical problems. He became concerned and came to the urgent care facility today because he is more easily fatigued and has a headache for the past 3 days that has not improved. He didn’t go to work today and that is not typical for Mike. Personal/Social History: Mike is self-employed and owns his own auto mechanic business. He currently has no health insurance. His father had hypertension and died of a myocardial infarction (MI) at the age of 50. Angelina, his wife, came with him to urgent care and shares that he is usually stoic with health problems so this must really bother him or he is afraid.
