Fluids Hypertension Syndromes – Dr. Leonardo Izecksohn – page 124
- 1 patient (1.8%) presented advanced glaucoma;
- 12 patients (21.1%) did not present any of the above Ocular disturbances.
The other Etiologies associated with these 57 patients with excessive use of TV or Computer,
were:
- 25 patients (42.9%) with excessive liquid drinks, with an average of 3,300 milliliter daily;
- 23 patients (40.4%) drank caffeine, as coffee, mate, tea or soft drinks.
- 18 patients (31.6%) with excessive soft drinks;
- 8 patients (14%) with beer drinks;
- 5 patients (8.8%) presented shallow eyes anterior chamber;
- 4 patients (7%) with medications that raise the fluids pressures;
- 3 patients (5.3%) with wine drinks, one simultaneously drank beer;
- 1 patient (1.8%) with visceral disturbances;
- And other less frequents etiologies.
We conclude that excessive use of computer or TV causes Ocular Hypertension Syndrome with
participation of the other two Fluids Hypertension Syndromes.
XI- 16) – Visceral Disturbances:
From the 931 patients with Migraines, in 41 patients (4.4%) they were related with visceral disturbances
(Table XII-1). They were 25 women and 16 men, with average age of 46.8 years.
“Migraineurs suffer from gastric stasis both during and outside an acute migraine attack. This may
suggest that migraineurs may have an abnormal autonomic function compared to nonmigrainous controls.”
(Aurora SK, and others).
We detected that whether and when the liver or other visceral sickness became well, the patients noticed
small reduction of their intraocular pressures and the end of their Migraines.
These 41 patients with visceral disturbances complained about:
- 23 patients (56.1%) with wide frontal migraines;
- 13 patients (31.7%) worsened their aches at morning;
- 12 patients (29.3%) with ocular aches;
- 11 patients (26.8%) with occipital migraines;
- 11 patients (26.8%) with eye’s itching or blepharitis;
- 5 women (20% out of the 25 women) worsened during the menstrual cycle;
- 8 patients (19.5%) with eyes redness;
- 8 patients (19.5%) with temporal or head-top (vertex) migraines;
- 6 patients (14.6%) with tearfulness and Rhinitis with coryza (rhinorrhea);
- 6 patients (14.6%) with photophobia;
- 5 patients (12.2%) with nausea and retching or vomits;
- 4 patients (9.8%) with Chronic cough without any pulmonary lesion.
- 3 patients (7.3%) with visual darkness;
- 2 patients (4.9%) with eyelids edema;
- 1 patient (2.4%) with diffuse migraines;
- And other signs and symptoms less frequent.
- Only 2 patients (4.9%) did not complained about migraines and related signs or symptoms.
The other Etiologies associated with these 41 patients with visceral disturbances, were:
- 24 patients (58.5%) with excessive liquid drinks, with an average of 2,800 milliliter daily;
- 19 patients (46.3%) drank caffeine, as coffee, mate, tea or soft drinks.
- 13 patients (31.7%) with coffee, mate or tea;
- 9 patients (22%) with excessive soft drinks;
- 9 patients (22%) with beer drinks;
- 5 women (20% out of 25 women) worsened at menses;
