Manny is an architect who works from home and enjoys hiking with his family. He tells you he was recently stung by a bee while working in his yard and needed to use his EpiPen for immediate treatment. He reports he did not need to go to the emergency department. Manny is here for a routine physical and prescription refills of Enalapril and Epipen® Auto-Injector. Although he was recently stung by a bee and used his EpiPen, he did not need to go to the emergency room. Based on his history, vital signs and metaboic panel, predict blood glucose values immediately after epinephrine injection (increase, decrease, or no change).
