Dicycloverine Hydrochloride tablets for IBS C - has anyone had any success with this medication?
I have been having a flare up of IBS. Mebeverine and Peppermint Capsules no longer seem to work for me so my GP has given me Dicycloverine 20mg. The main feature of my IBS is sluggish bowels and abdominal distension. It seems all the air in my colon stops things moving along. Just wondering if anyone

Working in a hot climate.
Hi has anyone worked in a hot climate? I have been offered a job in Dammam, Saudi Arabia. I know its hot out there but I think it will be mostly office based. I'm going to have a meeting mid September about my role it will be in construction. I'm not working at the moment I quit my job December 2013.

Accidental overdose. What should I do? Yesterday instead of 75 mcg Levo I took 125 mcg.
Stupid, stupid me! I was staying with friends and was distracted by a 5 yr old and on the phone while I was packing. I had a cup of tea in my hand, I was trying to remember to pack pills and take them home. Somehow my crazy brain got confused and " must remember to take pills" meant I swallowed a 50mcg

Picking some thyroid brains out there..... After some info/opinions on why my body has started producing thyroglobulin antibodies?!??!
Bit of history.... Thyroid cancer 2006, thyroid removed and RAI. Treated with Thyroxine since and blood work and thyroglobulin and antibodies have all been great until now. Thyroglobulin is still undetectable but thyroglobulin antibodies have appeared. Any opinions appreciated.

Cisplatin chemo
Has anyone previously had this chemo. If so how did you find and cope with side effects. Also did it help shrink the cancer. I had 1 shot on 5th round of 2nd line chemo. I ended up in bed for 8 days very ill. Recoverd now. But that was so awful. I cry just thinking about going through that again.

Had completion, don't have to have RAI what to expect next?
Hello, I have had my competition thyroidectomy for Papilliary Thyroid cancer. In the end I had one 2.5cm encapsulated tumour on one side and a 2mm micro-cancer on the other. My consultant is not concerned by the 2mm cancer and says I wont have to have RAI. I am on 150mcg of Levo and doing well on it

Beta 2 Microglobin - an exquisitely sensitive marker for disease activity in many hematologic disorders.
Increased serum beta2 microglobulin levels reflect increased activity of the disease process in question and can be an exquisitely sensitive marker for this purpose in many hematologic disorders. The reference range of beta2 microglobulin in urine samples is 0-0.3 µg/mL. In serum or plasma samples,

Cosmetic & Toiletries app that rates ingredients according to carcinogen level, hormone disrupter, potential for allergies etc.
I know that some of you have opted to switch to less harmful cosmetics and toiletries in a bid to reduce any possible toxic substances entering the body via the skin. We do absorb quite a bit through our skin so it makes sense to consider what we put on it just as much as what we eat or drink. Many ingredients

p13k treatment

Irritable Bowel Syndrome & AF/SVT
This post was originally on the Arrhythmia Alliance site..... I have tried to convince my GP and Cardiologist for 2 years now, that food bears some connection to SVT for me anyway. Eventually I got a referral to a Gastroenterologist who did numerous blood and urine tests, before Christmas. Apparently

Feeling a bit sad
Just needing a bit of a moan :( I have put in a poor few days, pain going down my right leg, pain in my right shoulder, sore back, sore head, post coital bleeding and just generally feeling pretty useless and broken. I've just had my period so thought the worst would be over but it seems to be worse

Bowel Preparation
Hi. I am having a endoscopy on Friday due to bowel pain I've experienced since my lap in August. I've been given a cancellation appointment so only got the letter/instructions regarding the bowel prep today and I'd already had a small amount of bran flakes for breakfast as I didn't realise you shouldn't

Fenofibrate almost crippled me And I only took it for 18 days...........MOST pain left after stopping fenofibrate for 3 days, except left knee pain. This stuff should be outlawed.
