Patient S has a previous history of MI 1 year ago. Today she presents to the ER with complaints of chest pain and nausea. Her ECG is unremarkable, she has an elevated troponin with ongoing intermittent left side chest pain that she describes as "sharp and intermittent".

She reports that she did not comply to the cardiac rehab program post cardiac event 1 year ago stating, "I have been lethargic and unmotivated since then". The patient goes on to tell you that she has been unable to return to work due to ongoing symptoms of depression. Patient S is not seeing a psychiatrist in the community.
