Vomiting and wasting disease

Common Questions and Answers about Vomiting and wasting disease

vomiting

Avatar n tn Chronic Vomiting and Diarrhea are very serious symptoms and along with the weight loss we are concerned. Sounds like the basic things have been looked into. Parasites, Pancreatic problems, etc. Now it is time to medically investigate more closely. I would suggest you see an internal medicine specialist. There is probably not one in Steamboat, but in Denver I recommend the VRCC - Veterinary Referral Clinic of Colorado at 303-874-7387.
Avatar n tn my left hand has muscle wasting had two emg tests both normal mri scan normal what is wrong with me?
Avatar f tn can someone explain if it is normal for someone that has been dx with 4th stage liver disease from hep c to have sever nausea and vomiting with absolutely no appetite. If so could you explain why and what I can do for it. I don't seem to get much help from my doctor on this, he just wants to keep doing ultrasounds of my abdomen.
Avatar n tn Inital loss of appetite and nausea in January has got worse and worse. He vomiting whenever he eats or drinks anything and is sensitive to food smells; even cooking in the house or other people eating triggers his vomiting. Initially his doctor suspected and ulcer and prescribed medication, he also had many different blood tests which came back normal. He has no problems with his bowels or any stomach pains. He was so weak and dehydrated we had to take him to hospital.
1084115 tn?1385228589 I too have been concerned about muscle wasting due to cirrhosis and a long period of inactivity. I have recently started swimming and that seems to help a lot with strengthening and gently stretching all these parts that were underused. It will take some time for healing and rebuilding tissue but I believe in time it will happen. Hang in there Marc.
Avatar f tn Sleeping problems are common in all patients with End-Stage Liver Disease. He is prone to infections viral, bacterial and fungal. It he has an infection and i fever he should go an ER. He may need to be treated with IV anti-biotics. 'The doctors said his cirrhosis is 'managable'.' His cirrhosis is not being managed from the information you posted otherwise he would be in the shape he is in and would have been referred to a transplant center by now.

Avatar f tn Since I gave birth to my first child 4 1/2 months ago via c-section I have had epsiodes of vomiting and diarrhea.Several years ago I had the same problem but everything went aways once my gallbladder was removed. The episodes of vomiting and diarrhea last anywhere from hours to 2 days. I have recorded what I am eating to see if it is a food allergy but only thing i have found in the past week is butter makes me sick but not other dairy products.

No one has told me that they are related but I wonder?
Avatar n tn I had hyperthyroidism (had a PT), and I had low potassium; I still do. I eat a lot of bananas and apples, but the endo wants me to take potassium supplements as well. It seems to me it has to do with the thyroid, but getting an answer from the endo on it seems to be impossible!

Avatar m tn Hi all, Immediate problem: About an hour ago, I started to feel slightly disoriented, suddenly weak, dizzy, and numb-ish, mostly on the left side of my body (most pronounced in my head). I feel vaguely nauseated and can't concentrate as well as usual, along with a strong urge to take a nap. This has happened before on several instances, during or after a couple of which I've fallen unconscious for 2-6 hours at a time and awaken exhausted.
Avatar f tn Thank you so much it all makes sense. I wish the Doc's can explain this like you. Thank God that we have this community so people like me can find information.
Avatar f tn Other symptoms include muscle wasting in the arms and legs, a bloated tummy and irritability. Some infants may gradually fail to gain weight, or lose weight after previously growing well. Symptoms in older children vary as they do in adults, and can include poor growth, short stature, anaemia and recurrent mouth ulcers.Your son can have celiac disease,also there may be associated congenital heart disease which may give rise to bluish and lethargic episodes.
Avatar m tn Take over the counter antacid and antiemetic (this SOS for vomiting). Watch out for a day or two with this treatment. Get complete HIV testing done to ease your mind, and rule it out completely. Please consult your PCP. Take care!
Avatar m tn I am a 39 yr old male with a long history of health anxiety. I have had the whole range of symptoms including aches, pains, twitching muscles, balance issues and all kinds of worries about my heart. I have had lots of other stuff but right now I am sure my forearms are losing muscle mass. It looks like my muscles on the top of my forearms are especially thin. My question or fear is, in horrible neuro diseases what point does muscle wasting happen?
Avatar m tn I have been seen by several neurologists and was recently presented with a diagnosis of monomelic motor neuron disease (?) - which as I understand is a syndrome of several conditions. Here are my symptons: -severe muscle wasting, weakness & atrophy in right arm and hand (I can't hold a pencil at this point). -faciculations in right arm only.
Avatar f tn My mum has COPD and has recently started vomiting everytime she bends down and wetting herself when she coughs. Is this related to the disease and does she need to go back to her doctors ASAP?
Avatar m tn My mom has chf, hypertension,and she is also diabetes and for the past year she has been nausea and vomiting. She is in and out of the hospital almost every month for the past year. The doctors cannot come up with a solution to stop the vomiting, it will stop for a few days and start all over again. My mom is tired of going to the hospital. She is on all these medication and nothing seems to help.Can someone please give me some advice.

Avatar f tn My jack russell terrier was in acute kidney failure last month and is now in chronic. Her blood work, off the charts in some areas, has normalised but her urine showed high protein and she has high blood pressure; she is taking enalapril for both of these. She is on Hills KD and has shown improvement in weight gain, appetite, zest for life, her coat looks fantastic. But I can't seem to control her vomiting for more than a few days.
Avatar f tn These issues began 5 years ago during the same week I took antibiotics for suspected Lyme disease. I take omeprazole for acid reflux. Have seen gastro and endocrine drs with nothing that jumps out as abnormal. I posted once before but the symptoms changed in that initially no vomit now, I almost always vomit . Then it goes away . I think oatmeal an issue but no one else seems to think the trigger . It’s like something gets irritated or inflamed and the quiets down.
