Jordan INTRODUCTION
Jordan is a 33-year old male who visits the doctor after feeling very tired and weak for an extended period of time. He says he often feels dizzy when he stands up, and sometimes feels nauseous. These symptoms have caused him quite a bit of anxiety, as he’s worried that something serious is wrong. Since he looks quite tan, you ask Jordan if he works outside or has recently spent a lot of time outdoors. Jordan says he has an office job and does not get outside much.
