Complementary therapies?
I have just come to the end of the chemo radiation and seemingly I now wait about three months before having a PET scan and a fibroscopy to see how effective the treatment has been and what might be the next steps. Just for my own sense of well being I am thinking about trying some complementary therapies

Not impressed
Decided to go through my medical notes such as they are, and blood tests again now I'm more sensible again. All hospital consultations are missed off and consequently diagnoses. Oh, and there is a gp consultation noted that never took place. Basically my notes appear to be a mess. What really

Divver? IBS? Something more sinister?
Back again. Noticed after a few weeks that I was eating fairly normally - always very careful - and not really going to the bathroom as much as I should have. Small soft BMs, after feeling like a huge BM was coming. Also having either hemmerhoid or fissure, fistula issues, but my opening is very sore

Constipation
I'm having a bad flare up . I was prescribed mebeverine, one of the side effects of that is constipation. I have IBS D , now I'm just constipated . I'd rather go than not go . It makes no sense that the medication has this side effect. I've stopped taking it as of today. Now I have to cancel my shift

Stomach symptoms with your IBS?
Do you have symptoms in your stomach? Besides perhaps the intestinal symptoms (constipation, diarrhea, gas)...do you also have symptoms in your stomach/upper abdomen? I have like a gnawing sensation almost feels like you are hungry but you aren't.... Does anyone experience this or any other upper

IBS or Redundant colon
So my symptoms started over ten years ago after a period of stress. I was later diagnosed with IBS with constipation, flatulence and abdominal pain -lower left side. The pain is only severe following a bowel movement. So I have a cycle of feeling fine until I have a bowel movement in the morning. It

New diagnosis of IBD
Hi all, I was told I had IBS and I have been back and forth with the doctors for a few years now. I’ve been again recently and the Dr said that tests had come back abnormal and that we were actually looking at IBD. She said the referral time is unfortunately quite long but I’m now going to be seen

Thanks to everybody who responded to my recent post about a colonoscopy cancelled at the last second because I had earlier gone into AF. Thought I would finish it with an update. Received letter today from surgical consultant who basically stated that the colonoscopy had not been necessary because

Blood test
Had both Covid and flu jabs yesterday. Lipase blood test due today. I've been searching to see if it's wise. Leave it 48 hours is all I can see after a long search. Any advice if you've been in that position. I didn't do my weekly Benipali jab yesterday . My RA is in remission but sadly attacked my Pancreas

hello all first time poster after being recently diagnosed with crohns post colonoscopy which showed long term inflammation, ulcers and some restriction in the intestine. First presented with mild stomach pain and some blood in poo but NO other symptoms. I feel lucky to have so few symptoms compared

Am I going insane?
Hmm so I’m just wondering, do those of you with PA that self inject regularly still suffer extreme fatigue and body aches and pains or other symptoms? I have celiac disease and that’s in remission thanks to a gluten free diet and I self inject fortnightly. I follow a good gut health diet but was told

Serositis and Hypotension anyone?
Diagnosed with Adult Onset Stills Disease aged 17 in 1979 now 61. Stills manifests as RD for me with many overlaps with RA and Lupus. I have other AI conditions such as Lichen Sclerosis and Enthetitus. Amazingly I’ve been mainly medication free since my mid 20s relying on pain relief and limb splints

Histamine Intolerance
Hi all. I've been ill for almost 14 years without a diagnosis. I have learned through my own trial and era that I have an intolerance to foods high in histamine and foods containing gluten. My question is can chemical intolerance go hand in hand with histamine intolerance or Mast Cell Disease? I get

Would you believe it?
Sod's Law. Due for colonoscopy this morning, so spent the last 3 days on a white diet, no alcohol, yesterday went through the Moviprep routine to empty bowels, spent all evening on and off toilet, most unpleasant. Got up at 2am this morning for toilet, and guess what, of course, AF suddenly kicked in
