Constipation
I'm having a bad flare up . I was prescribed mebeverine, one of the side effects of that is constipation. I have IBS D , now I'm just constipated . I'd rather go than not go . It makes no sense that the medication has this side effect. I've stopped taking it as of today. Now I have to cancel my shift

They won't give me an appointment and have said I need to take a statin while they get to me. The NHS website says you don't give statins to people with an

Apixaban rash
Diagnosed with DVT 4 weeks ago and prescribed Apixaban for life. This is my 3rd DVT. No problems for weeks and then a rash, very itchy, has developed on upper chest and top of arms. Occasional clusters elsewhere too. Just looking for general comments please before seeking potential switch to warfarin

Weaning off Omeprazole
Does anyone have a treatment plan for a successful weaning off Omeprazole please? I want to start this process but am a bit scared as I stopped cold turkey previously and had horrendous issues.

Updated diagnosis of autoimmune thyroid disorder
Just an update. Unsurprisingly with elevated thyroid antibodies I have been diagnosed with an autoimmune thyroid disorder. As I currently have some hyper symptoms as well as hypo ones, the private GO whoās diagnosed me very sensibly, imo, wants to test again to ensure she gets the diagnosis and treatment
