Endocrine System disorder

Case: 15 year-old Zinga is brought to the ER by her mother. She is hyperventilating, vomiting and complaining of nausea. Her mother states that her daughter has not seemed like herself lately.

She is very thin (and recently has been losing weight) although her mother indicates she has been eating and drinking continuously.

Her urinary frequency has increased dramatically. She has even been having trouble with bed-wetting although this previously had not been a problem.

What disease do you suspect Zinga could be suffering from?

As a doctor laboratory tests would you perform to confirm your suspicions?

How can you explain Zinga’s nausea and hyperventilation?

How would you describe Zinga’s breath and urine? What would cause them to be this way?

What treatment would you recommend for Zinga?
