Doxazosin
I have recently been prescribed Doxazosin to help with hypertension. I was concerned because one of the minor side effects is diarrhoea. I already have chronic diarrhoea due to microscopic colitis. However, the opposite seems to be happening. I have been taking 1mg daily for 9 days now. I still get the

bed wetting has stopped but now child is highly emotional?
hi, just wondering if anyone here that’s had a child that wets the bed had any emotional problems when they stopped? I certainly didn’t expect that stopping bed wetting would cause us any problems 🤦🏼♀️. So this last wee my 9 year old girl has been dry at night. Great news… but now she’s so emotional

Warfarin.
Is anyone with Coeliac taking anything other than Warfarin for AF? I manage my INR ok. I find it a problem at times. GP said it is better I take it. They can check because I might not absorb others well. Because green veg affects it. Holidays and meals out can cause problems. On holidays, my diet

Hi, everybody I had breathing problems last year. Went to my doctor & had a blood test that night I got a call to go straight to local hospital. Was there for14 hours but excellent service. Found build up of liquid in lungs & my ankles & lower legs were bigger. I had been cutting my socks as I thought

low T4 and T3 normal TSH
I posted earlier in the year about my daughter diagnosed with post partum thyroiditis , no treatment at the time but endocrinologist said he’d keep an eye on her! Her most recent results seem odd to me in that both T4 and T3 are very low but her TSH is also low - her case has been closed and results

Cholesterol Levels?
Has anyone noticed a relationship between their cholesterol levels and severity/progression of their liver disease? I’ve read that as the liver gets worse, cholesterol levels drop (especially HDL cholesterol). If you have had this happen, were you on medication (statins) to lower your cholesterol at

Finally diagnosed after twenty years!
I have finally got a diagnosis of IBS after at least twenty years of endoscopies, colonoscopies, scans, investigations, etc, etc. Strangely I feel much better even though they say it's a lifelong condition with no cure.

Raised Liver Markers - Octasa/ Mesalamine?
I started taking Octasa for Crohns in October 23. Just had blood tests (for another issue) and dr called to say that my liver enzyme markers were raised (ALT 255, AST 99, ALP 239, GT 334.. all substantially above the top end of normal) and they want to do an ultrasound to check my liver. The only difference

IBS and wind
I have had IBS for years and I am really suffering at the moment not only with the unpredictability of BMs but also terrible bloating and wind. It seems to be worse as soon as I go out shopping or to social events. I wonder if anxiety is partly to blame. I keep a food diary and am really careful

Salofalk foam enema - should I feel it?
Thanks in advance if anyone has experience using foam enemas - in particular, Salofalk.

Was very shocked and disappointed to learn that my ulcerative proctitis has
