Hypothyroidism Anemia

This point of view overlooks the fact that every well and normal individual is potentially an ill individual, and the roots of disease may be present in his make-up years before there is any overt disease. A dozen young men used as normal controls may each have metabolic peculiarities that point toward a different metabolic derangement gout, multiple sclerosis, diabetes, anemia, atherosclerosis, hypertension, nephrosis, hypothyroidism, rheumatoid arthritis, rheumatic heart disease, liver cirrhosis, and myasthenia gravis, for example, and yet at the time of their use as controls these young men may show no symptoms of the disease which is to appear later in life. It seems far from safe to assume that because an individual on clinical examination seems well, all of his blood values, for example, are normal and meaningless so far as disease susceptibilities are concerned.

The anemia of hyperthyroidism is usually normochromic and caused by increased red blood cell turnover. The anemia of hypothyroidism may be normochromic, hyperchromic, or hypochromic and may be due to decreased production rate, decreased iron absorption, decreased folic acid absorption, or to autoimmune pernicious anemia.

Chronic digestive diseases, anemia, edema, nephritis, hypotension, hypothyroidism, hypoadrenalism, poor nutrition or consuming a low calorie diet. 

The adverse effects associated with tositumomab therapeutic regimen include anemia, thrombocytopenia, neutropenia, infections, hemorrhage and allergic reactions. Increased risk of secondary neoplasia and myelodysplasia has also been reported with this regimen. Other side effects produced by tositumomab therapy include pneumonia, pleural effusion and dehydration, GI discomfort and infusional toxicity. Delayed adverse reactions include hypothyroidism and HAMA.

Care should be exercised when treating patients with hypothyroidism, malnutrition, hypothermia, and impaired renal or hepatic dysfunction. Glyceryltrinitrates should not be given to patients with severe hypotension, hypovolemia, marked anemia, or heart failure. Adverse effects of glyceryltrinitrates include flushing of the face, dizziness, tachycardia, and throbbing headache. Overdose may induce vomiting, restlessness, blurred vision, severe hypertension, syncope, impairment of respiration, and bradycardia.

The BMR is altered in a number of pathological states. The BMR is increased in hyperthyroidism, fever (approximately 12% elevation for each degree Celsius above normal body temperature), Cushing s syndrome, tumors of the adrenal gland, anemia, leukemia, polycythemia, cardiac insufficiency, and injury. BMR is decreased in hypothyroidism, starvation, malnutrition, hypopituitarism, hypoa-drenalism (e.g., Addison s disease), and anorexia nervosa.
