b) Rash
c) Fatigue
d) Weight loss

Answer 1

The symptoms reported by the client include jaundice, rash, fatigue, and weight loss. The EXCEPTION among these symptoms is Rash.

Step-by-step explanation:

The symptoms reported by the client include jaundice, rash, fatigue, and weight loss. The EXCEPTION among these symptoms is b) Rash. Rash is not commonly associated with autoimmune hepatitis, while jaundice, fatigue, and weight loss are more commonly observed. Autoimmune hepatitis is characterized by inflammation of the liver and can lead to symptoms such as jaundice (yellowing of the skin and eyes), fatigue, and unintentional weight loss.
