If Ithaqua makes you lose 1 Stamina when you use an item or spell that fully heals you, is the loss before or after the heal?
One forum reply reasons from the trigger's timing, with no ruling quoted.

Before. Ithaqua's trigger fires when the card is played, so you lose the Stamina first and the heal then restores you fully.
