2102364 tn?1334181277 Hi all, does anyone know or have experience of ethanol injections for hot nodules? In my thyroid book they say it is being done commonly in Italy, but I'm not quite up to that journey.
Avatar f tn Then I changed another new ethanol as the sample, and the result was the same. I want to know why? Is there Ab in ethanol in ethanol? Thanks!
Avatar f tn If the liver is decompromised it cannot metabolize the waste products hence there is an elevation of blood ammonia levels resulting in increased excretion in the urine. Also, increased levels of ammonia may also be seen with gastrointestinal bleeding, where the blood cells are haemolysed in the intestines, releasing protein. Please discuss this with your doctor am sure he will provide further assistance. Hope this helped and do keep us posted.
206807 tn?1331936184 E85 is a tiny sliver of national fuel sales, and between its highly variable price and lower energy content per gallon, most buyers with E85-capable models never put it in their tanks. In order to meet the rising mandates for selling more ethanol, at some point oil companies will have to mix more than 10 percent ethanol into everyday fuels—a milestone known as “the blend wall.” The EPA estimated that its 2016 mandate would require ethanol in 10.
Avatar f tn The presence of blood in the upper gastrointestinal tract results in increased ammonia and nitrogen absorption from the gut. Bleeding may predispose to kidney hypoperfusion and impaired renal function. Blood transfusions may result in mild hemolysis, with resulting elevated blood ammonia levels. **** So the bleeding from ulcers could trigger an episode of hepatic encephalopathy (HE) in a patient with cirrhosis and HE to begin with.
Avatar m tn dose anyone know definably how long methadone stays in your system 4 days now could be worse
Avatar f tn Just saw on 'Untold Stories of the ER', could be a sign that liver / kidneys are shutting down and is 'quite troubling' per the ER room doctor's diagnosis. Can also be caused by an overdose of migraine meds - which can cause too much ammonia build up. It's important you get help asap if you think you might be smelling ammonia/mothballs on your breath. Hope all is/was ok!
Avatar f tn Would consider consultation with Lisa Orloff at UCSF to review options - she can do ultrasound to see if PEI would be an option, and may know of someone in the area who can do the procedure (if she does not). She's also a great surgeon and ultrasound-clinician. PEI can cause extravasation into surrounding neck tissue and can damage the nerve that goes to the vocal cord - this is rare in expert hands. Dr Guttler in Santa Monica does these procedures, but he is not close by....
Avatar m tn I see you live in Spain!I'm going to assume that different units are used.......over here in USA that is a VERY HIGH blood alcohol level!3x the normal limit of what is considered legally intoxicated!
Avatar n tn The technique used by us is flushing with absolute ethanol ( 99%) in an amount of 25–50% of the cyst volume (maximum 10 ml), preceded by a submaximal aspiration ( 90%) of the cyst fluid under US guidance. Ethanol is left in place for 2 min, and subsequently a complete aspiration is performed. As opposed to the technique described in the published studies on PEI in thyroid cysts, we recommend subsequent complete aspiration of ethanol.
680807 tn?1304496587 It seems that the smell of urine is a strong indicator for diabetics, the ammonia smell in a diabetic is usually due to dehydration, so yes not drinking enough can be the reason for your urine smelling like ammonia. There are other causes too, and i would hope that it wasn't just assumed to be because you have diabetes and that you have had tests to rule them out eg urinary track infection. This lists common causes http://www.buzzle.com/articles/ammonia-smelling-urine-in-women.
Avatar n tn My father-in-law has non-alcoholic, non-hepatitus cirhossis of the liver. He had recent bloodwork that showed amonia in his blood. I would like to know if anyone knows what the normal range is for ammonia in a person;s blood. What an elevated number and what's not?
Avatar m tn What can cause a ammonia smell in sweat and colon? and raw skin lines on each side of the scrotum between the inner thighs and pus bumps.
Avatar f tn never had ammonia tested previously. estimated contracted virus in approx 1975, needle sharing in NV or CO. genotype 4c/4d, turning 57 this year. grade 0 stage 1 on biopsy in 2001. concerned about progression, possible indicators besides biopsy. I suppose a current biopsy is required to seriously consider treatment.
631939 tn?1272434532 If the large nodule is benign cyst the alternative treatment called PEI ablation can be used [due to the size of the nodule, more then one injection may be needed] This procedure consists of aspirating the content of the cyst, then filling it up with ethanol [ethyl alcohol up to 85% i believe of its present volume] the ethanol cause the cyst to shrink to the small size.
Avatar m tn I had my first alcohol ablation injection done at the Cleveland Clinc. It was done in August about six weeks ago. I did not find anyone in the Chicago area who offereded that treatement.
Avatar m tn What can cause a ammonia smell in sweat and Colin? the girl had the same smell.
168348 tn?1379357075 org/posts/show/704111 PEI can be very effective in the treatment of larger cysts that have one significant pocket of fluid (in contrast to multiple, small pockets of fluid) -- The cyst is drained then approx half of that volume in 95% ethanol is injected back into the cyst. Risks include extravasation of the ethanol into the local tissues with possible damage to the nerve going to the vocal cords (usually temporary).
Avatar m tn if you are eating allot of protein is this dangerous to have the ammonia smell. I do allot of cardio and frequently have this odor as I am working out. I do eat allot of protein since I am a diabetic. and carbs make my sugers sky rocket. Do you have any suggestions?
Avatar n tn Some people with Stage 4 (cirrhosis) can develop excess accumulation of ammonia due to compromised liver function, which can in turn cause confusion and disorientation. Damage to the liver caused by hep c can lead to too much ammonia in the blood which then affects the brain, a condition called encephalopathy.
