positive occult blood test but no parasites ?
I'm a mid-sixties female with R.A. Constipated until a year ago. Oftentimes in the last year (but not always) my poop looked well-formed but had something that looked like a string coming out the end, up to an inch long. My bowel habits changed a lot a few months ago/much less constipated. A couple

Swollen painful hand
I've had PMR for 2 years. Was started on 40 mg of prednisone. I have slowly gotten down to 13 mg. Recently I tapered to 12 mg but have not felt very well & suddenly my right hand fingers are swollen & very painful. This has never happened before. Is this some kind of flare?

Where does the blood come from?
Hi, I have endometriosis and with it I get bowel symptoms. The most prevalent is pain but I also get cyclical rectal bleeding. I had a colonoscopy and it was all clear they took some biopsies but results i probably wont get this year. I know this is common with endometriosis, but where does the blood

Omeprazole ...side effects...
Update of last post...all now settled thank you.Regarding omeprazole...spoke to GP this morning for steroid script, and asked if I still needed to take omeprazole on such a low dose of pred.

vertigo
hello we Are on holiday just now in Florida. Today my husband experienced vertigo it started off when he was sitting in the back of the car(he does feel sicky before Et diagnosis if he sits in back). I’m worried incase it’s serious. We have been doing the parks and not sure it’s just all catching up

Tinnitus
Hi I have recently asked on this site about ear plugs to block out loud music at cinema/theartes. But can I ask if anyone gets ear pain and soreness in their ears constantly with tinnitus. I wake with a headache and a sore left ear. Ear ache during the day. Thankyou

Been smelling smoke for a week after bonfire.
Constantly smelling smoke when the wind changed direction as I burnt some conifer branches. It's happened before but never continued for this long. Cut my nose hair, tried nasal sprays, irrigation etc; to no effect. Only thing that helps is Olbas oil which counters the stink. Googled it and it came

I have suffered with severe RLS for over 30 years. At first with no sign of treatment I used strong pain meds which I regularly took too much of just trying to calm my legs down enough to sleep, that didn’t work. In 2005 I saw a right up in a Sunday news paper about a treatment called adartrel, this

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

Update and no news from hospital
It's been a few weeks now since I embarked on my calorie deficit healthy eating and coffee journey. I had a birthday in June and I did say bad eating for a week. Well in turned into 2 ½ weeks as I was taken out by friends several times. However, I have now lost 10kg. I am so happy with this progress.

Do I declare Esophageal varices (no longer found) on travel insurance?
Hi All, I've booked a holiday for April next year and I'm looking for a bit of advice regarding my travel insurance. Due to having a blood clot in my portal vein because of my MPN I was diagnosed with having Esophageal varices (bloated blood vessels). However, I recently had an endoscopic examination

Vertigo and Venclexta?
My husband is starting cycle 12 of Venclexta, reduced to 200mg /day due to 2 bouts of Neutropenia, and has recently experienced Vertigo twice. The first time, I did not associate this with the treatment; however, it seemed peculiar when it happened a second time, only eight weeks later. He was advised

waiting for a hearing test to check for acoustic neuroma
Hi, I’ve had hearing aids for 8 years due to tinnitus. Recently my left ear feels very different from my right. It feels blocked and very deaf. I’ve also had 2 episodes of really loud tinnitus that I’ve never had before. When the tinnitus calmed down I had a migraine later. I’ve been having more migraines

Dry Matter in the corner of eyes.
Does anyone have problems with dry matter in the inside corner of their eyes? I know Glaucoma can be associated with dry eyes and fortunately, so far, I have not had too much of a problem.. However lately I have noticed an occasional sharp pain in the corner of my eye as a piece of matter comes out.

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

I'm Dx with PV jak2 and have been on low dose aspirin 2x daily/phlebotomies every 3 months or so for the last 20 years.

Dry mouth
Hi, I'm on Besremi, now at 150 every two weeks (down from 180 as WBC got too low). I have had dry eyes for awhile, but suddenly I'm noticing my mouth is really dry. I also have frequent urination, and have had for sometime which is driving me crazy. I do see urologist next week about that issue
