Symptoms of Pyrrole Disorder can range from mild to severe and usually involve difficulty managing emotions, poor coordination, fatigue, difficulty concentrating, digestive issues, sleep disturbances and anxiety or depression. Physical signs may include sensitivity to light and loud noises as well as a strong ammonia or vinegar-like smell in the urine. In addition to these symptoms, people with Pyrrole Disorder are also at risk for nutritional deficiencies due to the body’s inability to metabolize B Vitamins properly. These deficiencies can lead to further health complications if left untreated.
