Colonoscopy
I am having a colonoscopy next week at 2 o’clock so won’t be able to eat that day. Should I take my 13.5 Prednisolone without food or wait till I get home? I haven’t received the information pack from the hospital yet so not sure of the details.

AF after diarrhoea
I have paroxysmal af and the last 3 episodes have been triggered by diarrhoea. I had to take gastrogaffin as a bowel prep for a CT colonoscopy over the weekend which gave me constant diarrhoea- as expected went into af in the early hours of Monday morning. My EP thinks it may be imbalance of electrolytes

Colonoscopy
Hi everyone I have a colonoscopy on Tuesday 14th. I’ve had one before this is a polyp check. I was wondering does anyone have any advice to make the whole thing easier prep and procedure. I’m worried that as I am a very large lady they won’t sedate me, any experience. Thanks everyone.

Found My IBS-D Cure!
Hey all, 37M here . I've had IBS-d for about 13 years after going on antibiotics for an extended period of time followed by stress which kicked off years of digestive issues. Main symptoms have been constant diarrhoea and having to run to the bathroom very shortly after (or during) eating. I tried

Any ideas, Anybody... What could this be?
I just don't know anymore. I'm so weary of seeing blank faces in the medical profession, to be honest some I believe just don't care! I can hardly eat. A few days ago I have actually added to my existing list of 17 things I can't eat. Now I can't even eat rice! So 18 is the new number! So what is it

Health anxiety or something sinister
Hi. Looking back over the years, I have suffered with health anxiety from around 8 years old, my mum used to cry as she was terrified of dying of cancer and my dad thought he was a doctor in his former life so guess as a child I grew up being very aware of every ache and pain ! Sadly they both died of

Does this sound like a flare up?
Hi all, my husband was diagnosed with colitis around 10 years ago, after a period of treatment etc he was considered to be in remission and discharged from the team at the hospital. I would say this was around 5 years ago now. Last year, he fell over damaging his knee which became inflamed. After taking

Want to share my experience....from many years of IBS and now IBD.
I had what I thought was a bit of a flare for IBS in August time; my usual symptoms were D (a few times a day), abdominal pain, wind pain, not always feeling I had emptied my bowels properly and sometimes parts of my colon felt 'sore' as in slightly inflamed... I did not have any blood with my BM but

Do other sufferers feel like they have broken bones for long periods of time?
Most of my pain is concentrated in my feet and lower legs. At times I feel like my toes are broken bones even though I am able to bend them, but mostly I feel like my skin is too tight and or have a burning sensation or feel like my skin is crawling with a parasite. I am getting used to the cramps and

LDR brachytherapy at MSK: Day after treatment
Hi all, I posted here about three weeks ago that I'd decided on LDR brachy -- radioactive seed implants -- as monotherapy, having decided between that and HDR brachy and SBRT. They were the three options that my RO at Memorial Sloan Kettering (MSK) had said had very good and equal outcomes as monotherapy

Left sided pain

It sort of feels sometimes like a lump is there which my muscles pull around, sometimes if feels like a burning sensation that goes down into my groin. I've had trans ultrasounds, CT and colonoscopy all negative

Continued worsening of my GI symptoms in spite of treatment by a dozen GI specialists. Anyone else have had a similar experience?
Hello! I just joined the IBS Network in the hope that someone in the forum have had similar experience and learn from their approach to dealing with it. I started having GI issues about a year and half ago. Started with having abdominal pain followed by sudden change in my BM pattern of several decades

Sodium Butyrate is healing me!
I’ve suffered with IBD for 24 years and at last I have my symptoms under control, in fact I am recovering. After such a long time it is life changing for me. My recovery started with eating LoFodmap foods which gave my digestion a much needed rest, then after considerable research I stumbled across Sodium

Colonoscopy/tests normal but still having issues
I’ve been having GI issues for 6 months. Constipation (but stool is pretty soft), a constant urge to have a bowel movement but having one takes a lot of effort, mucus in my stool (but no blood). I had a blood test and ultrasound done, both were normal. I then had a colonoscopy, which came back normal
