A client is diagnosed with pheochromocytoma. The finding in the urinalysis report supports the diagnosis by Total catecholamines - 640 mmol/24 hr.

How Pheochromocytoma Is Diagnosed?

Rarely, the little glands on top of the kidneys known as the adrenal glands will develop a tumor known as a pheochromocytoma. These tumors may be malignant or benign (noncancerous) (cancerous).

Catecholamines, the hormones that regulate our ability to fight or flee, are frequently overproduced by pheochromocytomas, which results in symptoms including elevated blood pressure, headaches, anxiety, and a sense of impending doom.

A blood or urine test to identify elevated levels of the hormones that these tumors emit is typically the first step in making a diagnosis if suspicious symptoms are noticed or if a person has a family history of a genetic condition associated with this type of tumor. Additional tests and imaging examinations can also be required.

Explanation:

His weight had been stable at 135 pounds until the past 6 months, in which he has experienced an involuntary weight loss of 10 pounds. He is 67 inches tall and his current BMI is 19.5. He complains of a poor appetite and being overly weak and tired. He also complains of cracks at the corners of his mount and a chronic sore throat which concerns him, given his cancer history. His usual diet is fairly consistent. He states that he rarely eats breakfast because he starts work at 6 a.m. He eats two deli meat sandwiches, "usually pastrami or salami," and a soda at 10 a.m., and may eat a candy bar in the afternoon when he gets off work. He often prepares frozen dinners or pizza at home in the evening and routinely drinks "about 4 or 5 beers" before going to bed. Occasionally he will cook a roast and mashed potatoes. He occasionally will have milk with cereal but rarely eats vegetables or fruit. He would like to know which vitamin supplement will give him energy.1.What is Samuel’s Ideal Body Weight?
