New here and very anxious!
Hi, my name is Saba, I’m 39 and have been diagnosed with celiac disease just a week ago. I’m very hypochondriac person and get my check ups every 6 months. In February I’ve noticed that my ferritin level dropped a lot, I thought maybe it was cause by diet I was on to lose weight. Then in my July’s check

My baby is two now and I'm really suffering every month for close to two weeks. My partner is frustrated with it as am I. Its ruining my life I'm

Scared
When I was pregnant I experienced blood in stool and also black specks and mucus at times. I got a sigmoidoscopy because I couldn’t do a colonoscopy at the time. Now I’m two months postpartum and have a colonoscopy scheduled for December. I’m really worried about CC because of black parts in stool, blood

CT colonoscopy
Hi yes I had this procedure. Absolutely no pain or feeling at all. Doesn’t last long and had tea and biscuits afterwards.

Potential Covid-2019 vaccine side effect
I would like to know if any of our MS colleagues had any long lasting (more than a month) diarrhea symptom following mRNA (Pfizer) Covid-2019 vaccine. I am 68 years old, MS diagnosed 6 years ago, under daily Copaxon injection DMT therapy. For decades I suffered from constipation and recently I started

Gurgling guts and excessive wind waking me up at night
Does anyone else experience this? I regularly get woken around 2am and my stomach will be gurgling excessively and it then seems to produce lots of gas which gets trapped for an hour or so. It can keep me awake for a good few hours. I also experience nausea. My gp doesn’t seem to help. I’ve seen 5 gastroenterologists

Gi doc visit update/ primary visit
Hello everyone, I hope you’re all doing well. It’s Monday and A had her birthday on Saturday; she turned 11! I’m jumping in here on a high note. Just got off the phone with my GI doc. She addressed my anemia and my symptoms: Recommended psyllium husk for more solid bowels and a osmotic laxative for

Off topic - love my rheumy
Had an excellent telephone consultation with my rheumy today. Have an awful long lasting flare which has just subsided and having to go for a colonoscopy after positive bowel screening test, and he was very helpful. Apologised that it was not a face to face but said that was his trust policy, but would

Ct colonoscopy
Anybody had one? Do you know why I’d need bloods done first? I believe it’s much less invasive than a normal one and doesn’t require sedation.

Hello - I’m new and have questions.
Hi Everyone, I’m new here and very grateful for this group and information. I joined because after doing some research - I suspect I may possibly have PBC - even though my gastroenterologist suspects AIH (autoimmune hepatitis) instead. I would greatly appreciate your insights. I am a 65 year old female

New here
Hi. I’m new here. I really don’t know how to manage my anxiety and depression. I’m super hypochondriac. There is always something that makes me anxious. I’m 39 and for the past 20 years I constantly think that I have cancer. My mom was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer 5 months ago. Thank God there

Orange mucus upon wiping
I’m sorry for such an icky question but IBS sufferers are the only ones who understand lol! I’ve had IBS for 23 years. It’s gotten much worse the last 4/5 years.

Grastrogafin horror stories
I just had my first AND last experience with an evil prep called grastrografin. For a CT. virtual colonoscopy last Friday. In all my life, I admit that even the first sip of this in water, made me almost throw up. Not only that, I cut my doses down by a quarter, and mixed in some barley water, for

Colonoscopy
My Gastroenterologist wants me to have a colonoscopy, he says he can check liver, etc at the same time. Has anybody any idea what this procedure is called? He gave it a name but as usual I was flustered and forgot.

Clear Laparoscopy
Hi All, Hope you don’t mind me asking so many questions in one post but here I go 🙏🏻 I had my first laparoscopy on the NHS last Thursday (exactly a week ago at the time of writing this) and it found no endometriosis at all, my dye test came back clear, normal uterus, normal ovaries so I’m baffled
