QID: 103596
A 46-year-old woman presents to her family physician for a general wellness checkup with a chief complaint of high levels of anxiety over the past year. Her anxiety has started to affect her performance at work, making her even more anxious and concerned that she will lose her job. She started psychotherapy several months ago and has experienced minimal improvement in her symptoms from this treatment. The patient is vehemently opposed to beginning any pharmacologic treatment for anxiety; however, she is interested in potential herbal remedies and has started taking kava. She also takes vitamin D, a multivitamin, fish oil, protein powder, and drinks goat milk regularly. The patient works as a commercial sex worker and has a history of IV drug abuse and alcohol abuse which she states she has not used in over a year. She has chronic tension headaches for which she self-administers acetaminophen usually multiple times per day. Her last wellness appointment was unremarkable and these problems are new. Laboratory values are ordered as seen below. Hemoglobin: 13 g/dL Hematocrit: 38% Leukocyte count: 6,870/mm^3 with normal differential Platelet count: 227,000/mm^3 Serum: Na+: 138 mEq/L Cl-: 102 mEq/L K+: 4.1 mEq/L HCO3-: 25 mEq/L BUN: 20 mg/dL Glucose: 111 mg/dL Creatinine: 1.0 mg/dL Ca2+: 10.2 mg/dL AST: 82 U/L ALT: 90 U/L Which of the following is the most likely cause of this patient's lab derangements?
