Fibocalm
Hi, I have been trying the new Fibocalm for constipation capsules, but they are causing much worse bloating. I assume it’s Xyloglucan ingredient which I think is a FODMAP. It doesn’t matter what I try it’s always worse. Anyone else found this? Ros

radiation treatments led to perforated colon?
St. Patrick’s Day I collapsed in pain and was rushed to ER. A CT ABD PE revealed a perforated colon near my rectum, broad internal infection (sepsis) with kidneys and liver shutting down. A life flight, three surgeries later, 3 weeks sedated and immobile in an ICU, and seven weeks in hospital rehabs

Teeth sensitivity at the dentist
I have been diagnosed with SLE Lupus for a year now. Does anyone find their teeth really sensitive during ordinary dental treatment such as cleaning? I’m also having a problem with the injections to numb the mouth not working . Is this Lupus related or is it just me? Any advice on the problem would

Angular Cheilitis?
Just wondering if anyone suffers from Angular Cheilitis with their RA keep getting it and mentioning to the GP but he just ignored it. I've had my B12 checked and it was ok. I've read sulfasalazine can cause it. I'm also on Benepali jab once a week. Ive also read it could be folate levels but I think

How effective is fenofibrate for itch?
My doctor suggested a few different drugs, like rifampricin, naltrexone, and fenofibrate for my itch. He prescribed fenofibrate as he thinks it works best. Does anyone here take it and if so, has it helped? I'm worried about the warnings it comes with about severe liver damage.

Tirosint
I am unable to take tablet form levothyroxine, I have a gene issue with metabolising some medications. I have started liquid thyroxine but I think the ingredients are affecting my stomach and I have been told to stop taking this to see if it is the cause. I see that Tirosint is quite pure but not sure

Terratoma with a neuroendocrine tumour stage 1 3c, anybody
I think I might be clutching at straws here, anybody have anything similar. Apparently it's rare as hens teeth.I had a 5 kilo terratoma removed, it was on my left ovary. Also my appendix,left ovary and omentum along with 7 litres of fluid. No chemo as they were happy with everything. This all happened
