Have you spoken to GP?

I’m going through the same, they’ve prescribed colofac today, I should know if it helps quite quickly and had a blood test to rule out celiac. She doesn’t think there would be both conditions at the same time. Never had real bowel issues until this all kicked off.

Don’t leave it, your surgery will still be open, likely telephone call. I use the econsult form on surgery website, means you can write info and it’s quicker

Hope you get sorted

They gave me ensure milkshakes but half the time I dont even want them.

Maybe it will come back in time because I used to be a good eater.

I bought some protein shakes, don’t want them either. Really weird, nothing appeals.

Glad yours is improving 😀, even if in stages. Are you putting weight back on or is it now an ok level?

No coeliac showed up on test, at least rule that out. Still losing, but not underweight as such, although who knows what belly weighs 😂. Scales go up and down at home.

GP suggested colonoscopy for bowel cancer this week, but writing to gynaecologist first when I said he thought it was all endo related.

Have you had anything like that?

Not what you're looking for?
