She was seen by an (12) physician who corrects congenital or functional abnormalities of the bones with surgery, casting, or bracing]. This specialist placed her in a cast, which, after three days, caused (13)redness of the (14) top layer of her skin. This specialist placed her on a pain medication, which caused (15) loose watery stools, drowsiness, and confusion. She was so confused that she did not take her birth control pills and subsequently quit having monthly (16) vaginal bleeding due to her pregnancy. This pregnancy led to (17) an infection in her urinary bladder where she experienced (18) burning with urination, urinary frequency, urgency, and (19) blood in her urine. After delivering her seven-pound, six-ounce baby boy, she underwent a (20) surgical procedure to remove her uterus, ovaries, and fallopian tubes.
