First you need to indicate what your thoughts are, how would you code them

I am still fairly new to this, but I would ask what is the location these occurred in? Hospital, office visit, etc....

After knowing that, someone here would be willing to help after you answer what you believe the codes should be and how you arrived at that answer.
