Answer to Question 1

1. The client might report feelings of increased strength and intelligence.

Rationale:
Crank is a form of methamphetamine. It will promote feelings of increased strength and intelligence. These are simply the client's impressions, and are not present in reality. Drowsiness is not anticipated for this client. Hallucinations and paranoia might be seen in an individual who has been using crank for a long period of time.

Answer to Question 2

4. Bowel perforation

Rationale:
Bowel perforation is rare but may be a consequence of noncompliance with the treatment, because the disease would continue to progress. Diarrhea and intestinal obstructions are common symptoms of Crohn's, so the client who was previously diagnosed with the disease would be familiar with them. Vomiting is not considered an unusual symptom or risk for the client with Crohn's.
