A member asked:
I am at the er and swollen all over, my bp is 149/126, what could it be?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Sounds like: Beriberi. This is the classic vitamin b1 deficiency disease. The BP shows a narrow pulse pressure, also suggests it beriberi causes gross edema of the whole body. The attending doc will laugh at it because this disease is supposed to be abolished.
