Does Neurofibromatosis or pulmonary stenosis cause violent mood swings and fatigue?

Neurofibromatosis is a genetic disorder that primarily affects the nervous system and does not directly cause violent mood swings and fatigue. Pulmonary stenosis is a heart condition that restricts blood flow from the heart to the lungs, and it also does not specifically cause these symptoms. However, individuals with chronic health conditions may experience emotional difficulties and fatigue due to the stress and physical toll of managing their condition.


How do pulmonary agents cause pulmonary edema?

Pulmonary agents can cause pulmonary edema by disrupting the normal balance of fluid in the lungs, leading to fluid accumulation in the air sacs (alveoli) and interstitial spaces. This can result from mechanisms such as increased capillary permeability, inflammation, or increased hydrostatic pressure in the pulmonary circulation. Ultimately, this leads to impaired gas exchange and breathing difficulties.


What are pulmonary diseases?

Pulmonary diseases are conditions that affect the lungs and respiratory system, such as asthma, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), pneumonia, and lung cancer. These diseases can cause difficulty breathing, coughing, chest pain, and other respiratory symptoms. Treatment often involves medication, pulmonary rehabilitation, and sometimes surgery.


Can an adult have a small trachea?

While it's uncommon, an adult can have a small trachea, a condition known as tracheal stenosis.
