SOLVED1239

You are an emergency room physician. Marcus, a 7-year-old boy, has just presented in the ER complaining that his chest hurts, his heart feels funny, and his ankles and knees hurt. His mother says that he has had a fever for the past 24 hours. Upon physical examination, you notice that his ankles and knees are red and swollen, and examination with a stethoscope reveals unusual palpitations (his heart is fluttering). You immediately order an EKG to check for signs of a heart-attack, a CBC blood draw to check for signs of infection, a throat culture to check for presence of Streptococcus, an X-ray of his legs to check for bone fractures or lesions, and a urine sample to check for bacterial contamination. Marcus is admitted to the hospital where his symptoms continue to worsen despite constant administration of antibiotics. Which hypothesis is not supported? Marcus is suffering from a viral infection of his joints Marcus is suffering from a bacterial infection of his bladder Marcus is suffering from a heart condition Marcus is suffering from a bone fracture
