Her medical history revealed recurrent, unexplained pneumonias and treatment for anorexia nervosa. The patient was a lifelong non-smoker and she denied any use of toxic substances. On examination, her vital signs were as follows: body mass index, 17.6 kg/m2; temperature, 38.4°C; heart rate, 102 beats/min; BP, 100/60 mm Hg; respiratory rate, 24 breaths/min; and oxygen saturation, 91% on 6 L/min oxygen by nasal cannula.
