Bed wetting what should I do next?

If he there isn’t a toilet near he sometimes has accidents. At home if he is too engrossed in what he is doing he still some times has accidents. I spoke to his doctor who just told me he’ll grow out of it. Just get used to doing lots of washing. I can’t keep doing this much laundry.

Incontinence or psychological?

Hello everyone First time posting on here! I have a 4yo boy starts school Sept. Potty trained around 2.5yo. Started off really well but went downhill a couple of months after with frequent poo and wee accidents. We're now on top of poo accidents but not wee. He has around 3 accidents a day unless you

My husband's depression after a TBI

In need of positive reinforcement

Hi all, I’m so sorry I haven’t been on here lately. As I’m sure you can imagine I’ve been quite preoccupied trying to figure everything out post covid. A year ago I lost my job, and my career prospects seem more bleak than ever. I live in New York and things have been getting more difficult as I’ve

Pred timing

Is it better to take Medrol at nighttime inside the time release capsules or in the morning? I had been taking at nighttime and after watching Dr Sarah Mackie’s recent lecture I have changed it to the morning. But am feeling stiffer and a bit more achy. She states that taking the prednisone in the morning

COVID and Sedatation

My dad is going through something similar. He has been in ICU since the Jan 3rd, he was on a vent and now a trach. Every time doctors reduced his sedation he gets agitated and they keep giving him sedation. Doctors think he might have brain damage because he is not responding to commands but when family

Mental Decline

Good morning, Everyone! It is hard to be despondent on a day like I am enjoying. The sun is beautiful on the snow and the temperatures are heading towards 40 today I hope to take my hubby out for a wheelchair ride this afternoon. In the last few weeks, but especially the last few days I have noticed

A Different Perspective

Having been seen privately by an eminent rheumatologist.......a leading authority in the field of PMR/GCA, since my diagnosis in May 2019, I decided to change to NHS care, as weirdly there is much more support available in between appointments when you're under the NHS than as a private patient! I had

Aggression

My husband had a AVM rupture about 9 years ago and in July two years ago he was in a motorcycle accident that caused a severe concussion. Since the accident he has suffered with a lot of things but aggression is his biggest. What have you done in situations of anger? Today he was upset that I said not

Another update on my dad

Spoke to the consultant today, my dad’s making good progress so far and they’re pleased about his lungs. They had him sitting up in a chair and breathing on his own,although he tired. He still has secretions, so they’re thinking they’ll look to extubate by midweek.I asked about his stroke and whether

Post concussion syndrome

So I’m 2 Years in from my accident with 2 small brain bleeds. Still struggle with dizziness and a pulsating head, fatigue and short term memory loss, all normal but frustrating and still unable to work. This isn’t constant but recovery is incredibly slow. I seem to struggle with reading glasses feel

Laxido for fecal impaction. What to expect?

Hi, I was in hospital yesterday and told I have a fecal impaction and given laxido, told to take 8 sachets in six hours. I am on my glass now and already starting to feel the effects. I had imagined that it would just soften the blockage enough for me to pass as a type 4 stool? I currently have diarrhoea

Drug trial that could improve respiratory recovery from COVID-19 now underway.

Patients suffering from COVID-19 pneumonia often develop very low levels of oxygen, called hypoxia, in the arterial blood supplying the body. Researchers from the University of Oxford hypothesise that the underlying problem is that the virus disrupts a normal process in the lungs called hypoxic pulmonary

How do I cope with video calls

Hi, my husband has been in ICU on a ventilator for a month having contracted Covid at Christmas. He was given a tracheostomy last week and today I was able to have a video call with him for the first time. Obviously he can not speak, but I think he recognised me. I found it quite distressing to see him

Thread to help those suffering with birth trauma

Hi there I thought I'd create this thread for people to vent about their birth experiences I've noticed since the birth of my daughter 10 days ago there's not much support there are health visitors and midwives but I'm finding the support inadequate for example this morning I get a call from the midwife
