Update
Hi everyone, I hope you've all been well, and have been enjoying the lovely weather we've been having lately. Firstly, I just wanted to say the biggest thank you for all of the supportive words that were left on my last post. I know that I've already made quite a few like them in the past, but the kindness

Lupus and Digestive issues
Hello everyone, I've been having a lot of digestive issues and wondered if anyone else had a similar experience or any advice? So this has been going on for over a year now (maybe 18months) but in the last 4 months it has been significantly worse, every time I have a bowel movement it is extremely

The picture of what else concerns me
Again I apologize for being graphic with photo just extremely unnerved to say the least. This is what I’ve passed other than the clots. Any ideas or just if they’re trying to wait to long to do colonoscopy, anything…. Thank you

Clots and more
I’m passing these clots and have for a while now, I’ve had blood in my stool for many years but maintained a healthy diet and active lifestyle. I’ve been trying to get help from Drs. But it seems I’m getting the run around, my primary dr said because my red cell count dropped as fast as it has I needed

Post Colonoscopy
I had a colonoscopy 7 days ago, I was diagnosed with Diverticulitis but they took samples for biopsy to be on the safe side. Since I had the procedure I have yet to have a bowel movement. I am eating normally and restarted my fairly high fibre diet straight away. I have no bloating or pain. Is this normal

Help with diagnosing gut issues that suddenly started 18 months ago - Related to sub-optimal B12?
Hi - this is a repost from IBS Network community. I saw posts on here that lower than optimal B12 could be the cause of my gut issues, which dont' seem to be IBD/IBS as calprotectin is low. Any advice - let me know! I'm new to this community and hoping to get some guidance on my gut issues. The heaviness

Help with diagnosing gut issues that suddenly started 18 months ago
I'm new to this community and hoping to get some guidance on my gut issues. The heaviness, bloating and slow digestion started suddenly 18 months ago and I'm failing to get a diagnosis with my gastroenterologist. I would be very grateful if anyone could provide an insight into what this could be or at

What should I do now?
I honestly don't know what to do anymore... I won't go over everything in detail but basically I started with stomach pain (lower centre) just over a year ago. The pain is there all the time and does not come and go. I also noticed I was more constipated than usual and had frequent bleeding. I had

Late onset ibs
I started with IBS in my 6o's following a very bad bout of food poisoning when abroad.My GP immediately started me on meberverine and arranged for me to have a fast track colonoscopy. He wanted to eliminate the possibility of bowel cancer. I think you should speak to your doctor again.

IBS?
Hello, I am fairly new here but the posts have been very informative and reassuring. So....I have had bad stomach issues for over a decade now. Was diagnosed with IBS originally and given buscopan to help (did not help in the slightest). It got to a point lately where I pushed to be seen again as it's

Getting scared
Hi All I have wrote on here a few times but am becoming increasingly worried. Won’t ramble on but quick break down Nov 2021 doctor said 99% IBS with the symptoms and following, bowel sample, blood test and fit test (which all come back clear) no need for referral for colonoscopy. However since then

Lupus and renal involvement
I was diagnosed with Lupus in 2020 and am being treated by rheumatology and gastroenterology for 'mild' lupus characterised by joint pain, oral ulcers, fatigue etc etc. However, I have recently begun to think that in fact I may be in the early stages of renal involvement. My urine is frequently frothy

Blood clots in stools
Has anyone had something similar to this? I was told I had diviticulitis 2 yrs ago, and this has happened several times over the last 2 years, I’ve got a colonoscopy on Monday, could this be bowel cancer? EXTREMELY STRESSED

Salvage Radiation Induced Proctitis
I completed salvage radiation around a year and 3 months ago. Since then I’ve had issues with my gut, specifically cramps in the morning and irregularity.

Endo and stomach
Hi just wondered if anyone struggle with their stomach and bowel because of endo? Struggling with feeling unwell when I eat and pains around belly button and very bloated and uncomfortable. I know the gp will likely say it’s IBS but just wondering if I’d need a colonoscopy to see what’s going on. I
