Are you a doctor?
Nope, I'm not a doctor, just an experienced patient.

But those that mentioned diet could be right, but diet change needs to be done under med supervision. That 'smell' is urea, a waste product of protien being broken down by your the body. There may be a different reason for your symptoms but in this day and age medics should be able to find a solution.

I understand your problem, as a long term kidney patient I've experienced the, smelling like a latrine! And its not funny.

Even now as a heamodialysis patient if I eat a lot of protien between treatments my breath can begin to smell, as can my sweat.

I think that is Rumanian! for a CT scan, have you tried Google? - Multiple X-ray images when viewed on a computer give a 3D representation. Superseded by, Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI), similar thing without exposure to X-Rays.

Hi romstal ...
Wagolynn did not suggest YOU were Romanian ...
its just that when one googles CT comuterizata it takes you to Romanian websites ...
I know when I did the first one it suggested was This so its hardly surprising she thought it was Romanian for a CT Scan ... and the rest on the google page were for Romanian websites ...
obviously your from another country where as most us ... though not all ... are based in the UK ...
maybe it would help you if you told us which country you are based and your nationality ...
then it helps us with any suggestions in trying to help you ...

HEY! GREY! Come and teach one of my lessons!!!! This grammatical error drives me besirk! Forget the anchor men / women, EVEN the BBCs lead journalists now think this is correct! In fact I hate to say it, but the use of the imperfect seems to be quite prolific amongst us teachers too! Powerpoint slides are often detected with this infernal error! Together with 'off of', misuse of the apostrophe, and incorrect spelling of 'definite' and 'separate', these are the concerns of my daily life! (when I'm not worrying about laxatives, drain pain and what to cook for tea!!)

However, I am not 'holier than thou' and at times, like to be pretend my own errors are typoss'ss!!

Romstal..hi... I don't think people here are either trying to be difficult or even ignoring you. I suspect they, like me, just don't have an answer or even any good suggestions. Sorry.

Google shows many many suggestions, not prognosis, or diagnosis for those symptoms.
Really a doctor should be able to run enough tests to find out what is causing the symptoms, and therefore an appropriate treatment.

Good luck
