179856 tn?1333547362 t know anything about Portia. I had no idea she suffered from anorexia nervosa. I assumed she had anorexia - eating disorder from any cause - and that is why I assumed the anorexia resulted from her cirrhosis. Now, that I have read the gossip/Oprah stuff I lean more towards Willy's opinion.

1247613 tn?1268785691 I live in Japan, and it is hard for me to get certain health care or prescriptions. My mother sends me my old prescriptions from the states, I am currently taking minocycline and budeprion xl, and last year, I had a kidney infection due to serious dehydration from anorexia. I've recovered from anorexia and have not had kidney problems since, but recently, I've had serious insomnia and anxiety/fear due to the idea that I may get that kidney infection again.
Avatar f tn Enrofloxacin (Baytril?) -is very likely to affect appetite as its side effects include anorexia, nausea, maybe vomiting, and sometimes diarrhea. I wonder if it is wise to give the Rehmannia8 as well as the Enrofloxacin?? Who has prescribed the Chinese herb? The vet, or a veterinary herbalist? So many herbs are contra-indicated when there is other (allopathic) treatment going on. Herbs can clash with prescription medicines. A qualified veterinary practitioner would be aware of such things.
Avatar f tn Hi my doctor prescribe me vemlidy , any bad side effects on this since is still new..
Avatar m tn Also make sure and check the side effects of any medications you might be on. Some medications especially anti-depressants have sexual side effects. Good luck!
Avatar m tn Hi and welcome, Unfortunately eating disorders such as anorexia effects the entire body, including the brain and nervous systems. What you are experiencing could be due to your anorexia, as it can cause peripheral neuropathy, vitamin B12 deficientcy etc so it would be worth discussing this with your doctor. Cheers..........
1475974 tn?1306881321 Yes...blood and rays were done one week ago ..all negative . We have tried all foods... chicken. .tuna...roast beef...even canned from the vet; nothing. Under side effects Baytril says "anorexia" side effects . Just need to find that one ingredient to get here turned.
Avatar f tn Also, there is a possibility that she wants you to start eating so that you do not suffer from the side effects of anorexia. Anyways, please clear this with her so that this does not affect your relationship. Also, if you have anorexia, please try and consult a therapist dealing with eating disorders. Take care! The medical advice given should not be considered a substitute for medical care provided by a doctor who can examine you.
Avatar f tn long term purging has terrible effects on your body, everything from sore throats to cardiac arrest.
5045042 tn?1365890100 The problem is that herbs (and herb extracts) contain far more than the compound(s) of interest that may have unwanted effects or even toxic effects on the body in some or all dosages. Even the compounds of interest may be of risk. Some compounds put a lot of stress on the liver and can lead to liver damage. Some may alter the way you metabolize other compounds, making THEM toxic.
Avatar f tn My dog was recently put on Benazapril for her kidney issues. Some of the side effects say it can cause kidney issues. Anyone have any idea what I should be watching for to differentiate the Benazapril side effects from her kidney failure symptoms? Anyone have experience with it? One of the side effects is also anorexia, and she is not interested in food today. I can't tell if this is because of the new meds or her illness.
4815753 tn?1359528843 I'm so sorry to read abt Reikah and all the health issues going on...the poor little tyke. She sure is a beautiful kitty and I can tell very much loved. I wish I or someone on this site could be of more help, however our experience with kidney cancer and her other issues are very limited. I can send you to Tanya's site on kidney disease, not sure if she covers info on cancer...but she does on pancreatitis and may have some valuable info relating to cancer as well...
1017480 tn?1303107824 I am 26 years old, 5'4", and 90pounds. I have suffered from Anorexia and Bulimia for the past 5 years. I recently have been experiencing severe weeping edema all over my body.

Avatar m tn Ethacrynic acid has the listed side effects of possibly causing GI irritation, diarrhea, anorexia, abdominal pain, and dysphagia (difficulty swallowing) but does say how frequent these side effects are but side effects are usually mild and not very common (usually less than 10%). Lasix (Furosemide) has the listed side effects of possibly causing anorexia, constipation, cramping, diarrhea, nausea, oral and gastric irritation, and vomiting and again does not list the frequency.
Avatar m tn Hello, Weight loss is one of the side effects of taking Accutane and it may cause anorexia as well. Eat a healthy nutritious diet and consult your doctor if weight loss is a major problem. You may need to be put on some other medication for acne rather than Accutane. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided. For exact diagnosis, you are requested to consult your doctor.

Avatar m tn My husband had a heart transplant 17 years ago and the anti-rejection medicine is killing his kidneys (short version). The kidney doctors do not want to put him on dialysis, but the heart doctors do. As his kidneys weaken we are also noticing that his heart is having more and more problems. I feel that the kidney doctors are killing his heart just to save his kidneys. He is awaiting a kidney transplant.
Avatar n tn My dog was vomiting about 1 month ago and lethargic. I took him to the emergency vet clinic and they did an Xray, which was inconclusive. They sent me to a specialist center to have an ultrasound done. The specialist looked at him and felt that the Xray was inconclusive due to bad technique and recommended leaving him overnight for observation. He didn't vomit, they put him on some bland food and he seemed to improve over the next week or so. Then, he began urinating in the house.
Avatar f tn My 9 year old standard poodle, normally active and lively, began walking slowly and became incontinent overnight 3 weeks ago. Sono to check for kidney or spleen abnormalities (and anything else in general) proved negative. Blood count is fine. After noting that dog was drinking more than normal, her eating began to tail off, and now she is not eating voluntarily for past 2 days. Today I began to put small bits of food down as if pilling her. There is no vomiting or diahrea.
701581 tn?1279136038 It may be the doctor in Miami felt the previous positive ANA test(s) was/were sufficient (provided that isn't one of the things that came out negative in latter testing?) There are doctors that are concerned about costs when ordering tests, so perhaps she was being judiciously frugal when it came to ANA? I think if you feel you have the symptoms of lupus, it is worth pursuing getting that re-tested- to see what comes out as two out of three- positive or negative for the illness.
Avatar m tn As you probably know, this eating disorder can have severe effects on the heart. One of the most common--which you have--is an extremely low heart rate. Other very serious problems include a change in electrolytes, the ions that control the rate at which the cardiac cells fire. That's dangerous, as you can read here: http://www.cardiacmatters.co.uk/how-anorexia-affects-heart.html You do belong under the watchful care of a cardiologist at this point, to prolong your life.
Avatar n tn I constantly think about myself and my own eating habits. And literally, no one else. I just want help. The side effects it has had on my body are not worth wanting to look skinny. Some days are good for me and I'll eat around 1800 calories, then I'll have a string of bad days and limit my intake again. I truly believe that I need professional help. Maybe you should do the same. Because I've proven to myself that I can't get over this alone.
