2. Brian recently went to the doctor due to symptoms of headaches, anxiety, vision impairment, and confusion. After performing some diagnostic tests the Doctor received the following results in regards to blood pH, pCO2. The Doctor also found this situation to be chronic rather than acute. Based on the data below, provide the diagnosis (Based on what you have covered in this unit) and create a diagram that shows how the renal system would compensate to bring the body back to normal. In your diagram, make sure to include at least:

Renal tubules, arterioles, bicarbonate buffer, H+ ions
ABGs:

pH - 7.30

pCO2 - 50 mmHg

HCO3- - 28 mEq/L
