Common Questions and Answers about Radon gas symptoms on humans

gas

Avatar n tn Do you live anywhere near an area that is known to have radon gas? Animals are a LOT more sensitive to these things than we are, and the fact that your dog is acting strangely INSIDE would make me worry that there is something in there that could eventually also adversely affect the humans in the family. Carbon monoxide detectors only cost a few dollars at places like Lowe's and Home Depot, and I believe there is also something similar to detect radon gas.

Avatar m tn The information you provided, including speculation on possible exposure to Radon suggests that you are probably on the “cusp” of the screening guidelines. The first thing you should do is to discuss this question with your doctor and/or a lung specialist (Pulmonologist) so that your total health status can be taken into account and, perhaps, other risk factors revealed.
Avatar f tn What about raiden Levi? That's kinda cute I think!
Avatar m tn It showed gall sludge, but it also showed a spot on my right kidney and a mass on the adreanl on the right. So the doctor sent me for a CT scan. The NP at my doctors office said I should be tested for Cushings because I had a lot of the physical characteristics. The CT results stated it was a adenoma, well encapsuled. The doctor sent me for an MRI next, which said it was a myelimpoma.

1569985 tn?1328247482 A Year Remembered One year ago today, on Good Friday, I went to the ER for chest pain. That turned out to be nothing, but while I was there a chest x-ray showed a spot on my left lung. During the Spring I was scanned, had a biopsy and interviewed three chest surgeons. August 11 I had a left upper lobectomy, which was found to be Stage 1 cancer, clear on the margins with no lymph node involvement. One surgeon told me, "75% of the people I see I can't help.
Avatar m tn 2) the multiple sources of everyday radiation exposure, such as radon gas, and even flying; and 3) the competing risks such as dietary, genetic and other environmental factors (such as smoking). Nevertheless, the medical community (for instance the AHA - Gerber et al, Circulation 2009; 119: 1056-1065) has called for such studies to help better understand these risks.
Avatar m tn I will do a google on this and see if the symptoms fit. Does this illness make the cat sick? The cat was absolutely sick...so sick I took it to the vet to have it put down. It was dying in my yard.
598816 tn?1219542566 I have to say that first and formost I am a mother of 2 great kids - Brian (9yrs) and Nicholas (6 yrs) and that at age 2 Brian was diagnosed with having PDD/NOS and from that point on I have been doing nothing but research here on the net and off. Well recently I have found that toxic chemicals in our home were causing some of Bri's issues, so I set out to eliminate these from our home. It was fairly easy and I am forever thankful for the company I have found.
Avatar f tn Did the Pulmonary Doctor say you do not have a airway disease problem, or is that why you are referred to a GI Doctor (isn't that the digestive system specialist??). I am a guy, much older than you and a regular smoker for about 30 years, I have not smoked for the past 30 years, however. I don't know about dust or other pollutants, my home is marginally high in radon gas, a common problem in much of New Jersey. I think my symptoms are similar to yours but not as erosive.

Avatar f tn A respitory virus and that now i have cold like symptoms and a rash on my face. She said i coukd have parvo and they drew blood to find out for sure but i don't have results yet. She says my baby can become anemic and can need a blood transfusion while in the womb. I am so terrified.
Avatar f tn As far as I am aware, the flu-like virus that infects dogs is not transferable to humans - or from humans to dogs. The two strains are completely different and isolated to each species (although most viruses do mutate and very rarely they can transfer from dogs to other animals, but not humans). That said, I would be extremely interested in what the vet has said and where he got the information from.
Avatar m tn Hello, I know this is unusual but I need factual help on this. I talked about it to my doctor and he dismissed it. My place has been severely unsanitary in the past. At some point my personal hygiene was very bad and I fell sick. Constant nausea, cold sweats, tiredness, dizziness, confusion. The sensation of being drunk. Feeling close to fainting, even at rest. Even after cleaning, I still feel sick. My head starts spinning as soon as I spend time home.
950954 tn?1271210887 Hello, My husband and I have been trying to conceive for about 4 years. I am 25 years old and early this year, I was diagnosed with PCOS. I was performed a hysterosalpingogram on the 2nd week of June and I've been taking Metform for almost 3 weeks. I have noticed that I've been discharging a clear/white sticky and elatically looking mucus, slight increase in the release of gas, frequent clear urination, and pelvic pain on my lower left and sometimes right side.
Avatar f tn I have been really bloated and have had a lot of gas. Is that normal? Also gas anyone done clomid and the trigger shot and did it work on your first try? And one mire question. When Di you start to have pregnancy symptoms? Thank you for all your help! My husband and I have have been ttc for 2 years.
Avatar f tn I wasnt implying that MORE animals turn on humans than humans on animals, but that it is yet another story (like one more)
Avatar n tn I have 5 children, four of which are very close together. On some of my children I have suffered from post-partum thyroiditis. It has always corrected itself though within 9 months of delivery. I also didn't produce enough milk to nurse my last 2 babies. I have lost 75% of my hair over the past 5 years. My eyebrows and eyelashes have thinned. I also suffer from constipation and weight loss and weight gain, but only a size up and a size down.
208764 tn?1249429657 Chlorine dioxide is a severe respiratory and eye irritant in experimental animals. The oral LD(50) in rats is 292 mg/kg [NIOSH 1995]. Delayed deaths have occurred in animals exposed to 150 to 200 ppm for less than 1 hour. Rats exposed to 10 ppm daily died after 10 to 13 days of exposure; effects seen were nasal and ocular discharge and difficult breathing. A postmortem examination revealed purulent bronchitis [Hathaway et al. 1991].
Avatar f tn Hello ladies! I just want to know all the different symptoms you have had during your pregnacy??
Avatar m tn you do have some part of your bowel that is not moving things as well for the gas to cause problems,.....I call this on the verge, thats because things still move but cause troubles,.....while ibs can be very extremely painful everyone who has it has a bit differant symtoms, while one has the runs all the time others have a combo of symtoms , gas is always a instigator , leave the carbonation alone as well as other gas causing foods,.......SUGAR feeds bad stuff!!
Avatar f tn m getting up in the middle of the night to snack, late night potty trips once or twice a night, shooting pain in the vagina area, cramps on/off probably due to built up gas, on/off constipation to diarrhea. The things us pregnant ladies endure through pregnancy. Good luck February moms-to-be!!!
