 | | Trimethylaminuria (TMAU or trimeth) is described as a life-disrupting condition. |  | | When eight-year-olds with trimethylaminuria confide in you that they wish they had cancer or needed to use wheelchairs or had third-degree burns, so they wouldn’t have to explain the unexplainable to their classmates, you get a clear focus on the depth of their despair. |  | | Trimethylaminuria seems to be a disorder that most certainly could have had its roots in classic mythology. |

| Â | Trimethylamineuria (Fish Odor Syndrome) |
 | | Because the disease is practically unknown by any name, it may take years for a person with trimethylaminuria to find a doctor who can recognize the problem. |  | | Few health professionals are aware of this disease, which is called trimethylaminuria, people experiencing its characteristic body odor may spend years seeking relief. |  | | Some cases of trimethylaminuria may have no genetic component: Several patients seem to have developed the disorder after liver or kidney disease. |

 | | If this is true, people with trimethyaminuria may have side effects when taking these other drugs that people without the condition don't experience (or experience with less severity). |  | | Although there is no cure for trimethylaminuria, it is possible for people with this condition to live normal, healthy lives without the fear of being shunned because they smell like rotten fish. |  | | Due to the variability of symptoms people with trimethylaminuria experience, researchers hypothesize that a variety of genetic mutations can cause the disease, affecting time of onset and how strong the odor is. They also suspect that stress and diet play a role in triggering symptoms. |

 | | TMA oxidation occurs in the liver and is mediated by members of the flavine monooxygenase (FMO) family. |  | | Trimethylaminuria is clinically characterized by a strong body odor of rotting fish resulting from abnormal excretion of trimethylamine in the breath, urine, sweat, saliva and vaginal secretions. |  | | Drugs interfering with hepatic metabolism should also be avoided. |

 | | British biochemist, Dr. Ian Phillips of the University of London, believes that until now, the public and the medical community may not have "understood there was a medical disease underlying some of these smelly disorders." |  | | Fish-odor syndrome -- properly known as 'primary trimethylaminuria' -- is caused by an excessive bodily emission of the compound trimethylamine (TMA). |

 | | Certain systemic diseases can give rise to distinct peculiar odors. |  | | If any of the above odors are noticed as being emitted from your breath, you should consult a physician. |  | | Bad breath has been reported as being associated with hepatic (liver) failure (producing a sulfur odor, rotten eggs or garlic), uremia or kidney failure ( ammonia odor), diabetic ketoacidosis ( acetone odor) and trimethylaminuria ( foul fishy odor). |
