It's been just over a year since I had RAI. I would really like to know - now that I'm feeling so much better and back to a semblance of mental alertness - why the doctors didn't start me on Tapazole and on medication to alleviate the awful hyperthyroid symptoms I had between May 1997 and October 1997 (a 5 month wait until I received treatment when the specialist finally had time to see me). It seems ridiculous that the family doctors/general practitioners I went to during that time let me suffer and just passed the buck ("Nothing we can do, you must wait for your appointment with the specialist", they said). If I'd been a cat with a hyperthyroid condition (cats can have hyperthyroid problems) I'd have got into a veterinarian in less time. There'd have been humane societies to see that I got immediate medical care.

Home Table of Contents N atural H ealth N otebook .com Hyperthyroidism See also Hypothyroidism Hyperthyroidism is a disorder in which the thyroid is overactive. When the body is over-flooded with thyroid hormones, they stimulate increased overall metabolism, increased protein metabolism, calcium imbalance, glucose intolerance. Serum cholesterol and triglyceride levels are depressed. The patient may have an irregular heart beat, have trouble sleeping, feel hot, sweat profusely and be intolerant to heat. Supplementation of iodine increases storage of the thyroid hormone thyroxine which helps to prevent its release. "Through tissue mineral analysis, we frequently see hyperthyroidism in some types of psychiatric problems, particularly manic depressive disorders. Cobalt (an integral part of vitamin B12 ) may produce an improvement due to its effect of decreasing excessive thyroid activity." [David L Watts, Ph.D., Health Counselor , Nov/Dec 1991, p 14] Vitamin B deficiency has also been found in patients with multiple sclerosis (MS). An overactive thyroid can contribute to a vitamin B

Hyperthyroid Disease in Cats J. Kris Hankison, DVM Stevens Point, WI Hyperthyroid disease in cats is common and is usually discovered in older cats that lose weight, eat well, and seem otherwise healthy. Take a look at Hyperthyroidism in cats as explained by an experienced veterinarian... “Doctor, is there something wrong with my cat, Tigger? She's losing weight but she can’t be too sick because her appetite is terrific!” I encourage this concerned pet owner to bring Tigger in for an examination. Further questioning revealed some important clues to solving her health problem. The owner told me that Tigger has seemed restless for several months, wandering around the house at night, yowling and making a terrible racket. The owner also told me that Tigger has had occasional diarrhea and vomiting, and these symptoms have become more frequent. During the physical exam, several abnormal findings are noted. Tigger is very thin with a poor, dull haircoat. She is very anxious and restless on the exam table and her heart rate is very fast... more than 200 beats per minute! (average is 110 - 140 beats per minute.) As I continue the examination, I think I can feel a lump in the neck area. At this point, I am pretty sure that I know what is causing Tigger to be ill, and I explain to the owner that some blood tests will help confirm the diagnosis. When the blood test is back, we discover that the Tigger’s thyroid hormone level is more than twice what it should be. We have our answer-

Putting just a few grains of kibble on a dinner plate (rather than dumping a bunch in a bowl) really helps, and he hadn't vomited for quite awhile until more recently, when he started snarfing kitten food at every opportunity. When he started acting very irritable, and vomited frothy foam several times a day, we thought it was time to get him back to the vet. Dr. Schnittker could feel his thyroid glands, which is the first indication of hyperthyroidism, and the blood test confirmed it.

Hyperthyroidism is another disease which attacks senior cats, and is being seen more often in recent years, as cats are living longer because of advances in veterinary science and increased awareness on the part of caregivers.

Advertising Free Credit Report Free Psychics Advertisement Hyperthyroid Disease in Cats Two Week Progress Report on our Hyperthyroid Cat Bubba was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism a little over two weeks ago, after some very quick personality changes (increased grumpiness and disappearing for long periods of time), coupled with an unexplained aversion to food, and increased bouts of vomiting. His initial treatment was an antiemitic shot, Reglan tablets (also for the vomiting), Periactin (for appetite) and Tapezole (anti-thyroid drug) twice daily for a week, then once daily for a week. Bubba's kidney and liver values were checked and showed to be completely normal. However, since hyperthyroidism is known to mask hidden kidney disease, it is standard procedure to recheck thoase values once thyroid levels return to normal. The latter information was my biggest concern, since a cat with kidney failure is not a candidate for radioactive iodine therapy.

Health WebMD NIH Hyperthyroid Eye Disease Graves' disease may be associated with particular eye changes. The eye changes are called hyperthyroid eye disease and occur in about 30 percent of people with Graves' disease. These changes are visible as protruding eyes. There is no relationship between the appearance of eye changes and the severity of the hyperthyroidism . There is increased risk for infection and visual problems in persons with severe hyperthyroid eye disease. Eye disease is most likely to progress in people who fit a certain profile. This includes those: Whose hyperthyroidism is not promptly corrected and controlled Whose thyroid hormone level is not within normal limits Who smoke cigarettes The autoimmune process that causes hyperthyroid eye disease is poorly understood. Doctors do understand that there is swelling of tissues behind the eyeball, decreased range of motion of the muscles around the eyeball, and retraction (a pulling back) of the eyelids. Common symptoms include pain, excessive tearing, increased sensitivity to light, blurred vision, double vision, or protrusion of the eyes from the face.

Radioactive Iodine Treatment of Hyperthyroid Cats I-131 Treatment for Hyperthyroidism in Cats at Washington State University Approximate cost (total bill which includes examination fee, I-131, some limited diagnostic evaluation if needed, and hospitalization): $800-900; a cardiology evaluation if needed could add $100-175 to this estimate. Length of time in hospital: 7-10 days average (shortest has been 5 days, longest 14 days; the campus Radiation Safety Office, not the clinician, authorizes release of the cats) Route of I-131 administration: single subcutaneous injection Side effects: none expected, though, as with other treatments for hyperthyroidism, decreases in renal function (please see below) may be observed following I-131 therapy; hypothyroidism is uncommonly observed. Tapazole®: We would like to have Tapazole® discontinued 2 weeks prior to treatment with I-131. Bloodwork Current lab tests including a minimum of BUN, Creatinine and T should be available in an otherwise healthy cat. If a cat is showing signs of illness a CBC, Chemistry panel, UA, and possible further diagnostics may be required prior to injection. Bloodwork can be sent with the client, or drawn at WSU. Bloodwork may be repeated at WSU at the discretion of the admitting/supervising clinician.

Frequently Asked Questions. What is hyperthyroidism? How does hyperthydoidism affect my cat? What can happen if my cat is left untreated? What are the advantages and disadvantages of the various treatment options? ... How much will this treatment cost? What is hyperthyroidism? Hyperthyroidism is the most common hormonal disease of cats resulting from secretion of excess thyroid hormone (T ). The average age of onset is 13 years of age. Thyroid hormone (T ) is responsible for regulating the metabolic rate of all cells in the body, which results in an overstimulation of nearly all organ systems. This overstimulation puts significant and ultimately fatal stresses on the body. How does hyperthydoidism affect my cat? 95% of hyperthyroid cats are classical in their presentation and exhibit some or all of the following: excessive appetite, weight loss, attitude changes, overactive, aggressive, tremors, increased vocalization, hair loss/unkept coat, excessive drinking, excessive urinating, vomiting and/or diarrhea. 5% of hyperthyroid cats are apathetic in their presentation.
