Two weeks after arriving at the Army recruit camp at Ford Ord, California, 20-year-old Private Phillip Edwards developed a fever, headache, and felt a pain in his neck each time he moved his neck.When he arrived at the hospital, a physical exam revealed a petechial rash on his lower extremities.

A lumbar puncture was performed for cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis. The patient has Bacterial meningitis a streptococcus pneumonia.

The note includes patient background and symptoms,  Final diagnosis, treatment plan (what medications would you give, if any?), recommendations (stay home from work/school? avoid sexual contact? etc…)  and prognosis. thanks
