As I have posted on here before I have had constipation for over 10 yrs and after a recent colonoscopy I was told there was no cancer but I had diverticulitis as well as IBS and there was still some blockages in my large and small bowel. I am now on holiday on a cruise and I am using one Microlax each

Could use encouragement - Depressed and Anxious, New Medication offered by Psychiatrist - It’s been a Hot Minute
I haven’t posted in a while, nor responded to people, but I could really use some encouragement. Sorry! I’m very depressed and anxious these days, SADD getting to me. My psychiatrist has offered a nasal spray 2x a week for 8 weeks that will work for up to five years to decrease depression. I’m waiting

Night time nausea
I am a little confused what is going on with my husband.He's got ARBD, acute kidney disease and ARLD. He has started being very sick late at night and this morning I noticed traces of blood in his sick bowl. He says he's not in any pain, but I am concerned as this is a new symptom. He refused to contact

Hi All, this is from the Uk - good old NHS! My positivity is slipping! No, I WILL keep a PMA😌 I’m off on holiday soon 😁 but…. The story so far is too long - briefly, 4th line finished end of May. Just got blood results and CA125 has jumped from 23 to 293! Now, the midpoint CT scan showed partial

prucalopride - Tips
Hi Have been suffering with chronic constipation for that last 2 years, plus pain in the pelvic floor area & rectum. Mixture of pressure & burning pain. My NHS Gastro & physio appointments are currently 3/4mths apart so if I make any kind of improvement it is diminished by the time I get back to them

How to taper off 15mg Lansoprazole
Hi I have been on lansoprazole for about 2.5 months now and about to try come off them. I am on 15mg. I've started by taking one and then missing one the next day then taking another but I've already got acid reflux and this is only the second one I've missed. Do I need to do it slower? The docs said

B12 or something else?
Hi About 2-3 years ago, during lockdown when it was difficult/impossible to see a GP, I started taking B12 supplements 3-4 times weekly. Whilst not wanting to diagnose myself, I felt I had little choice given the GP situation, plus my daughters are B12 deficient, and had the same symptoms as myself

Switching Drs
In July, I was notified by my oncology clinic that my oncologist was on an emergency leave of absence with his return undetermined. 😢 I was absolutely devastated, not only because there was no information that could be given on his status, but also for the void it left not knowing where to proceed
