my friend has longstanding health problems and doc. cant find out what is wrong. She gets burning tongue, itchy skin, at times skin looks yellow, and feels sick a lot, especially after eating carrots or foods high in vitamin A. Is there any condition where not being able to digest vit A is a possibility,...? She gets quite unwell at times and sleepy......please help..?
Is there such a condition were you cant metabolize vitamin A or the enzyme for digestion is missing.?
She should see a Endocrinologist. There are several medical conditions which can cause absorption problems.
This can become serious and even lead to ulcers and/or seizures.
Reply:your friend has something wrong with her liver as evident by the itchy skin, yellow appearance, and fatigue.
As far as vit. A, she would notice visual problems I would think
she needs to see her doc
Reply:Vitamin A can be toxic....that would be my guess, she needs to lay off the Vitamin A for awhile and see if her symptoms clear up.
