The man went to bed and got out of bed.

The Yangtze River Daily Da Wuhan Client June 19 (Correspondent Liu Shanshan) The 30 -year -old guy went to bed and fell off the bed, and he couldn't move all over, like paralyzed, was rushed to the hospital for treatment. Potassium periodic paralysis. Fortunately, after the active treatment of severe medical department, the patient's body returned to normal.

Xiao Zhao (Hua's surname), who lives in Hankou, is 30 years old. He usually lives very irregularly. He often sleeps at 3 or four in the morning. Some time ago, the weather was hot. There was no air conditioner where he worked. He drank a few bottles of ice drinks every day to cool down and relieve heat, but his mouth became more and more thirsty. Last week, he suddenly fell off the bed when he slept, and he wanted to stand up again. The whole person was paralyzed as if he was paralyzed. He couldn't move below the neck. The family quickly sent him to Wuhan Central Hospital for treatment.

It was found that his heart rate was too fast, and the concentration of blood potassium was only 1.7mmol/L, which was far below the normal value of 3.5 to 5.5 mmol/L. Due to the severe potassium deficiency, arrhythmias and even cardiac arrest of heartbeat are still occurred, and then they are transferred to intensive medical treatment.

After learning that the low potassium in his body suddenly appeared "paralysis", Xiao Zhao felt surprised. How could he usually lack potassium? Under the repeated questioning of the doctor, he recalled that in recent days, he often feels weak limbs, and has symptoms of shaking and panic, but he did not take it seriously. He also drank a lot of ice drinks every day.

The expert team of intensive medical medical department is inspecting the patient.

Further improved the thyroid function test, it was found that Xiao Zhao also suffered from hyperthyroidism, and finally diagnosed it with hyperthyroidism with low potassium periodic paralysis. According to its condition, the team of intensive medical treatment was supported by potassium replenishment. The symptoms of the patient were quickly eased, and they could get out of bed the next day.

"Hyperthyroidism itself is a high metabolic disease. Patients will have symptoms such as palpitations, shaking, fear of heat, sweating, fatigue, and weight loss." Yu Li, director of the severe medical department of the hospital, introduced that patients with hyperthyroidism have faster metabolism itself. , It is easy to lack potassium, sweating more in hot summer, which is more likely to cause potassium loss in the body. In addition, patients have recently drank a large amount of high sugar drinks, which eventually triggered low potassium periodic paralysis. Essence Common induction factors are fatigue, full meals, a lot of high -sugar food, alcoholism, mental stimulation, excessive exercise, etc.

Director Yu Li reminded that summer is the season when hyperthyroidism is easy to attack and recur. People with a family history and medical history of hyperthyroidism should pay attention to drink plenty of water, supplement the water lost due to sweat in time, and regulate the medication under the guidance of a doctor. Usually maintain a regular schedule, learn to relieve stress and ensure sufficient sleep. The main function of potassium in the human body is to maintain acid -base balance, participate in energy metabolism, and maintain the normal function of neuromuscular muscles. When the body is deficient in potassium, the whole body muscles will be weak, panic, and cannot walk. Severe potassium deficiency will cause arrhythmia and even heartbeat. His arrest is endangered. Therefore, when symptoms such as unknown abnormalities in daily life, they should be paid attention to and go to the hospital to find out the cause of the cause of the cause.
