Do i have colon cancer?
I'm 22 and have had rectal bleeding on and off for years but occasionally I have filled the toilet water. I've had two signoscopies, the first showed haemorrhoids and the second were clear. I sometimes get a little pain in the sides of my stomach, I'm waiting for a hospital appt at gastro. Very scared

Totally confused
I'm 67 years old. I had debulking surgery in January, on the understanding I'd most likely got epithelial serous ovarian cancer which had migrated to the inguinal lymph node and differentiated into non small cell neuro endocrine cancer. I'm back from my follow up appointment today, where I've been

Some happier news
A week ago I was on two hourly morphine injections as I have a sub acute

obstruction
and abdominal ascites. Today I slept for almost 6 hours, have no pain (but take OxyContin) and will get up soon to go to my wedding.

Appointment at Pain Clinic grrrr
Went to the first appt which is an info session where we were treated like complete imbeciles who knew nothing about pain, patronised and told we have to do random urine drug tests, the results of which are not on a secure database and any staff member in the hospital can access them and make assumptions

Is this the correct way to do a Grabb-Oakes measurement?
This is my MRI, possible Basilar Invagination. It measures 10.54 mm. Anything greater than than 9 mm indicates ventral brainstem compression. I did this with the MicroDICOM program.

A wee drink i found after exercise to help my COPD and mucous
Since having COPD diagnosed 24 months ago i was already 3 months of the cigarettes before the diagnosis which now means i am 27 month smoke free. Since that time i have attempted to live a fitter life and it is only now coming together, anyone who thinks two years quit, is fantastic, it is for your health

Travel insurance
Hi can anyone recommend travel insurance , going to America and the quotes I'm getting are hundreds of pounds 😫 I probably should have said I have mild Copd , but also gall stones , and what seems to be worst of all non alcoholic fatty liver, I do think this may be my biggest problem as far as insurance

'Magic Pill'
Hi, all. This time next week I will be taking the Preparation of Moviprep twice that day following a low residue diet prior to the prep. The following day my Apt at Liverpool Royal Hospital is @ 8.15 am until 6pm. I find the whole procedure of what follows to be fascinating & how far technology has progressed
