Ultrasound showed Static bowel area
Hi all, Have an update… June 2023 I had a colonoscopy a couple of days ago. They found 2 small polyps which were removed. They took 4 biopsies which will take approx 6 weeks before my GP will get results. I’ve also received an appointment for a CT Scan with Contrast for next week so am hopeful

Colin Cancer? Ulcerative Colitis? Chrons?
Dark red blood in stool often Chronic constipation due to MAT treatment but started as substance abuse. Now I'm pooping big white jelly like mucus. The Drs don't help me because I am an ex addict and on MAT they say that is the cause of everything. I've given up in Doctors helping me. About 3 days

Tinnitus louder than usual
I had inflammation in my right ear with headache, doctor gave me Otomize, but the headache was still there, went back to the doctor told me to see a pharmacist, they gave me nurofen, didn’t help, went back to the doctor again, they gave me antibiotics and codeine, this seemed to make my headaches worse

Gas pains!
Hi everyone, hope you are keeping well. The last few week or so upon waking I seem to have a lot of sharp pain in my stomach and sides, which particularly worsens the more I breathe in, this is relieved by releasing gas and I carry on with my day! Is this common or typical of IBS or should I be concerned

Disheartened on Temgesic - Subutex might be the answer If you can acquire it.
Young male under 30 24 hr symptoms and 10/10 pain . Unable to work Unable to drive Suffered since childhood . Was still on 1200 gabapentin Prior to Temgesic he tried everything as we do. I did not think Temgesic would work due to severity of his condition. He was given a 5 day trial on Temgesic

I went to see my GP and was told it will help with my BP. Question is am I taking tablets I don't need. Fed up of feeling

A lightbulb moment
I am currently taking 10mg immediate release Shortec Oxycodone at 6pm, 10pm and again when I need to during the early hours. I manage to get broken sleep which usually equates to 4 hours, which is better than I have had in the past. This works reasonably well, however, from early afternoon my arms

my ear infection healed but my tinnitus hasn’t
I had an outer ear infection this month that inflamed and blocked my ear canal, causing tinnitus. I took optomize and the infection went away, but the tinnitus stayed. The doctor examined my ears again and said they were fine, even though I still have tinnitus and sometimes itchiness. My ears are also

On lupron since 2011, recurrance, SPLASH TRIAL, Provenge NOv 2023. Strarted on Taxatere (doxcetel) in March. My MO put me on an 18 infusion schedule (I believe 1/2 normal dose) because of my age, 84. I get infused ever week for 3 weeks, then 1 week off and continue for 28 infusions. I have had 6 infusions

Confusion after hearing test
Hi folks, just wondered if I can get some opinions please? I was thinking my tinnitus which is a mild high pitched ringing mostly in my right ear, was caused by noise damage/hearing loss. I've had a couple of decades of being a working musician in bands, but the last 10 years or so have been performing

Flare up or just Fatigue?
I have tapered to 7.5 mg this month using Dorset Lady's table, but in the last few days I have pains around the hips which is only relieved by sitting down. I wake up around 4.30 a.m. and so have several spells of faitigue/deep sleeps in the early evening. When I am out I lean against counters
