Question: What is the deficiency of food causes weight loss due to thyroid disorder? I am taking methimozole along with multivitimins tablets for thyroid disorder for the last 10 days. I have been prescribed these medicines for two months. In addition to it, what food I should take more to meet the deficiency. I have no other health problem. I am regularly doing physical exercises for the last 10 years. I wonder how it happened? can any expert please explain?
Answer: Hyperthyroidism is characterized by hypermetabolism and elevated serum levels of free thyroid hormones. Symptoms are many but include tachycardia, fatigue, weight loss, and tremor. Diagnosis is clinical and with thyroid function tests. Treatment depends on cause.(Merck)
Major clinical signs of Hyperthyroidism include weight loss (often accompanied by a ravenous appetite), anxiety, intolerance to heat, fatigue, hair loss, weakness, hyperactivity, irritability, apathy, depression, polyuria, polydipsia, and sweating.(Wikipedia)
Methimazole is used to treat hyperthyroidism, a condition that occurs when the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone. It is also taken before thyroid surgery or radioactive iodine therapy.(MedlinePlus)
Methimazole and propylthiouracil are used to treat conditions in which the thyroid gland produces too much thyroid hormone.
These medicines work by making it harder for the body to use iodine to make thyroid hormone. They do not block the effects of thyroid hormone that was made by the body before their use was begun.(MayoClinic).
Question: How does iron deficiency affect the composition of blood? I have a good friend who is diagnosed with iron deficiency, although she is getting better i want to know more about her sickness. Please answer.
Answer: Iron deficiency makes it harder for your blood to provide oxygen to your body. So you could feel tired or out of breath. It's not that uncommon in women. I think, but do not know, that's it's because they have to replace the menstrual loss every month. There could be other more serious problems causing the deficiency - ask your friend about the diagnosis.
Iron-poor blood is less dense than iron-rich. When you donate blood, they'll put a drop into a special solution to see if it sinks. If it floats, there isn't enough iron. If it sinks like a rock, there's plenty.
Question: What deficiency is it when you see bright dots flying in front of your eyes? I mean when I are just not exactly looking at anythign in particular but you see bright dots/sparks flying away near your line of vision.
Weird? I thought so.But I figured this is a kind of deficiency.I remembered seeing this during pregnancy.I was anaemic then?Does this mean I am anaemic?
April.
Answer: I thought floaters were usually dark.
My Mom had the sparks once and was told to get to a Dr. to have her eyes checked immediately. Sometimes this is an indication of something happening within your eye. I can't remember for sure but I think it has something to do with the retina separating?
Anyhow....check it out. Perhaps it is more substantial at my mom's age, but it's better to be safe then sorry!
All the best!
Question: What deficiency may be the cause of my strange food craving? I am wondering if anyone knows if this is a sign of a vitamin and/or mineral deficiency, and if so which ones? Lately, I've had this thing for English muffins topped with cream cheese and pickles??? Maybe just stress? I'm sure I'm not pregnant (on birth control), but I have heard that strange food cravings can mean that your body is lacking something. Does anyone know?
Answer: stress can be a big factor, yes. You may also not be consuming enough fats or sugar, but this doesn't mean you have to overdo it. Did you eat enough in the past days?
Question: How to protect my assets from a deficiency judgement? Once a deficiency judgement is issued, what measures will the lender go to in order to determine my assets?
What do I need to do to effectively "hide'" MY ASSETS?
Answer: If you have assets, why wouldn't you just pay your bills? I don't understand this reasoning. Someone was kind enough to lend you the money when you needed it, yet you will work and research to stiff them on it rather than pay them back with a thank you?
Question: What makes iron deficiency anaemia different to other types of anaemia? what is special about it to make it 'iron deficiency' anaemia? What are other types of anaemia like?
Answer: Ronnie - Iron is needed in the body to make hemoglobin which gives blood the red color and allows the red blood cells (RBC) to carry oxygen to all body tissues. The most common cause of anemia is a deficiency of iron in the diet. It can also be caused by a vegetarian diet (with no red meat) or by loss of blood from bleeding of any cause. Sometimes iron may be plentiful in the normal bone marrow where RBCs are made, but the body is 8unable to use the excess iron to make RBCs. Other types of anemia exist. In old age, the number of RBCs made in the bone marrow is replaced by fibrous tissue and anemia of aging occurs. Some chemicals can cause a break-up of normal RBCs (a hemolytic anemia). Some genetic or hereditary causes include sickle cell anemia or thalassemia. Some infections cause anemia like malaria where the parasite invades and destroys red cells. So, really, the only thing that makes iron-deficiency anemia different is that it is the most common and most-talked about type of anemia. Fortunately, it is also the easiest to treat successfully.
Question: How do the white flecks in fingernails indicate a calcium deficiency in the body? A beautiful, unforgotten, and very helpful friend once told me that the white flecks and spots in my fingernails indicate a calcium definciency in my body. I've been taking calcium everyday for years. How is it that I have a calcium deficiency?
Answer: It's a common medical myth that white spots on your fingernails are caused by too little calcium in your diet. However, these white spots (called leukonychia) are not a sign of a calcium deficiency. But they can be an indicator of other problems.
The most common cause of leukonychia is blunt trauma to the nail bed, such as a knock or a blow. Due to the slow growth rate of nails, the white spots of leukonychia may appear gradually and linger for months.
Other causes could include a rough manicure, a slight allergic reaction to enamels or other nail products, or even a mild bacterial or fungal infection.
White spots can also appear on toenails, but regardless of their location, they are generally harmless and will disappear with time. However, a nail that turns completely white could be a symptom of liver disease and should be looked at by a doctor. http://www.soundmedicine.iu.edu/segment.php4?seg=204

Question: If someone has an iron deficiency, will a nickel rubbed on their skin leave a gray mark? My friend says that rubbing the edge of a nickel on the skin of someone with an iron deficiency will leave a gray line. But it hasn't worked on anyone. Is it because it doesn't work or because we're just not low on iron?
Answer: No. Where does this crazy stuff come from anyway?
Question: Can the 2nd mortgage company sue me for deficiency upon foreclosure? I am in the process of foreclosing my house along with 2 rental homes in AZ. I understand that the anti deficiency law protects my assets. However, can and will the 2nd mortgage company sue me or put a lien on my other property/asset for the deficiency? Is there anyway to protect myself?
Answer: It's simple if you don't make the payments, they will foreclose. If you signed a promissory note, they could come after you in the form of a filing to the IRS for the balance owned. I suggest you talk with a bankruptcy attorney.
Question: How often do banks file deficiency judgments? I have asked a question regarding this topic, but now I am wondering from my previous question and answers, does anybody know what factors in to the bank decision whether or not to proceed, after foreclosure, in filing a deficiency judgement? having lived in the house for 2 1/2 years, in an interest-only loan, the bank has gotten alot of money already and would not be "losing" anything, would that be something that is factored into the decision? I live in Nevada so anybody that knows Nevada foreclosure process specifically would be great! I also have a 1st and 2nd which was done to avoid PMI I heard the 1st will sometimes "buy out" the 2nd in the event of foreclosure has anyone heard of this?
Answer: It is true that a first will often buy out a second mortgage holder in order to have the right to sell the property after foreclosure. But just because you paid a bunch of interest during the 2 1/2 years you paid on an interest only loan doesn't mean that the present mortgage holder has all that money. Mortgages are often sold in the secondary market thus the entity that actually owned it when you decided to stop paying if likely not the one you were paying at the beginning of the loan. Deficiency judgments are more common than you think but the bottom line to seek one against a borrower depends on the loss the mortgage holder took to justify the further expenditure of fees involved. It is all done on a subjective basis
Question: How do you develop a potassium deficiency? I was 19 when I was diagnosed with a potassium deficiency. How is that possible? Does your body just stop producing potassium?
Answer: There can be more than one reasons of potassium deficiency (hypokalemia) in a person such as lower level of Potassium in daily diet (i.e. insufficient potassium consumption), excess potassium excretion through bowel motions or urine, if a person is undergoing medication that as a side effect causes lowering in Potassium level in body, if a patient is suffering from problems such as diabetic ketoacidosis, related to renal salt transporters (Bartter Syndrome or Gitelman Syndrome), it may lead to hypokalemia, if a person is suffering from diseases which cause excessive excretion of potassium through bowel motion or urination can lead to hypokalemia etc.
Question: How long do I have before I put myself at risk of iron deficiency anaemia? I am planning to go on a 4 - 5 week diet that will probably consist of half (or less) of my daily iron requirements, will this be enough to give me iron deficiency anaemia?
Answer: I have anemia it stinks. You are cold all the time and feel weak and tired. So, you should take the tablet for iron You are at risk if you do that for 4 or 5 weeks, that is how long it took me to get it. And plus I don't understand why you would be going on a diet with little iron... it's just not healthy...
Question: How many people have you met with an actual protein deficiency? I've met none. So weird that this protein deficiency thing is such a problem (according to people who have never researched veganism) yet I haven't met a single vegan with a protein deficiency. Maybe I'm just meeting the lucky ones. ;)
Answer: It is extremely easy to get adequate protein on a vegan diet and very rare for protein deficiencies to occur in places where people have access to a variety of plant foods. Protein deficiencies occur primarily in places where people don't have much access to food and they don't eat much variety (for example, they only eat rice).
Question: Can vitamin and protein deficiency be the cause of my depression? Or is it the symptoms of the deficiency that is causing it? I have been feeling extremely tired, having trouble staying focused and just not thinking clearly, in addition to nightmares, crying, etc... I had some lab work done and I have several deficiencies to deal with B-12, D, iron, protein. Not sure if I should just try to deal with these and the rest will fall into place or if I should try treating depression at the same time.
I did see a doctor or I wouldn't have had the labs drawn and know what the problem is. But I don't think doctors are complete gods and think that sometimes they over treat people. I was kinda looking for a been there done that this is what worked for me advice.
Thanks to the rest of you who actually read my question. I just don't want to be over treating and get started on a medication that I will become dependant on if I don't need to. I am not taking any other medications at this time that could be causing the problems. I know what is the cause of my deficiencies I just thought that it was under control but apparently I am going to have to supplement my diet even more to compensate.
Answer: not getting adequate protein is a big problem; you need protein to make serotonin (i call it the 'happy hormone'). you would be surprised how much better feel when you are properly nourished. just treating the deficiencies will make you feel better but it may take a while. if you are severely depressed where it is interfering with your job and home life or if you are suicidal at all' treat the depression by all means! when your nutritional problems are under control, you can wean off the anti-depressants.
hope this helps!
