Nothing stops stomach pain
Hi, I'm new here. I've been diagnosed with IBS. I have been prescribed Amitriptyline but it hasn't helped stop daily stomach pain. Cocodamol nor Buscopan has helped either. Does anyone have any other suggestions of how to help relieve stomach pain. I don' t get bloating but the pain can be unbearable

chemotherapy followed by maintenance avastin
I am getting carbo/taxol and my CA125 is 114. After 6 cycles the doctor wants to start avastin as maintenance. I am afraid that stopping the chemo and having only avastin won't keep the CA 125 down. Has anyone received maintenance avastin having a high CA125? Did it keep the CA125 at the same level

ibs , constipation, sigmoid
so I finally went to pelvic floor therapy and they told me that there is no poop in the rectum. That the poop is stuck in my sigmoid based on where I pointed in the upper butt part. My stool is soft and sits there and I go usually one in 2 weeks- a month. I can not pass gas unless it wants to come.

Remedies for low stomach acid
Hello.This is a follow up on a previous question. I did the baking soda test this morning to see if I had low stomach acid. I didn't belch at all so I guess that could suggest that I'm low !! I thought I would try some Betaine HCI with pepsin as that is quite often recommended. I asked my naturopath

omeprazole and Lansoprazole
Do these types of treatment have any efficacy for PA patients with gastritis. ? I understood that with pernicious anaemia we had very little gastric acid. Doctors always say oh just try them, and have no answer to my question. Can any of you good folk help.

hello, I was admitted into hospital due to my severe weight loss caused by acute IBS symptoms. I was tested for everything including colonoscopy and endoscopy. Nothing was detected from the procedure or the biopsy. But I continue to have problems digesting food. I have been eating mainly blended

Afraid to go to the bathroom!!
I’ve been dealing with constipation issues for the past year. I can only attribute it to gettin older - never had any problems before that. I won’t go into the details of what I have tried - I’ve taken lots of great hints from videos and forums; a lot of it seems to work - and then it doesn’t.

Avastin following taxol/carbo
Hi , I have 1 more session of taxol/carbo left and my oncologist wants to discuss going onto avastin however, I'm not sure whether that is needed at this stage. I have ovarian 4b and have been debunked. My ca125 levels were 7 before the last chemo 3 weeks ago. I feel very fit and healthy.I've not had

upcoming colonoscopy
hi. I’ve suffered from i b s for years and recently had some stool tests that indicated inflammation in my bowel. Ive been referred for a colonoscopy in June and I’m very anxious about it as somebody mentioned that your bowel could be perforated. Also nervous about the preparation which sounds horrible

Diaohrea
Does anyone else find that, post ivor Lewis, any ordinary illness also sets off diarrhea and gagging? I am 6 years down the line and have a nasty cold plus above. My tablet has 2 ways of spelling it. The only one I am sure of is runs! Am waiting for urgent endoscopy too as I have had terrible reflux

Prescribed biological Meds - Adalimumab
Hi, My appointment with the consultant went well yesterday and he prescribed biological meds Adalimumab as the azaphoprine I was on previously for UC worked but sadly caused liver cirrhosis! Anyway, I haven’t tried these biological before, so feeling a little anxious about how and if they will work

IBS after eating
Hi,I have been away on Holiday for the last 11 days , most of this on a cruise ship . I had one episode where IBS reared its head and I had a very urgent dash to a toilet , this occurred one afternoon.. Having said that , I also noticed this was a little different from flare ups and attacks when

Thybon henning t3
Hi, I have asked my private Dr to write my prescription for Thybon Henning T3. He said it is only for lactose intolerant patients. Is that true, I know it is lactose free, but I asked for it because it is cheapest. He said I had to email that I was lactose intolerant before he would specify it. I have
