Another consultant cancellation
My husband was due to speak to the upper GI consultant next week.It has been cancelled again 3rd time. He has been waiting 12 months now for this appointment. I am so angry. I am going to ring the Secretary tomorrow to ask if they can please reconsider. He is very poorly now. Sleeping mostly, not eating

Disimpacted 9 year old and still soiling
my 9 year old has been suffering with chronic constipation for 6 years, we are all at our wits end. It is hugely affecting my, but more importantly her, mental health. At the beginning of July we had a hospital stay for disimpaction via a NG tube. This was effective. Doctor prescribed 5 ml of sodium

Besremi Update 15 Months
Hi Community! I titrated my Besremi to 180 from 150 over the last three doses (a bit of a story there for another time). I assumed I'd need a phlebotomy as I hadn't had a CBC for 7 weeks and my Hematocrit was already 40 but it went down 2 points! Almost never happens without phlebotomy. Everything

Virus affecting IBS-D
I recently had a mild virus (headache, stomach pains and bad taste in mouth), which made me feel very tired. However, I was still able to go about my daily life whilst taking paracetamol to keep me going. The virus also affected my stomach causing loose bowel movements and occasional diarrhoea after

Don't know What's happening to me!!
Doc recommended 2 x Amytryptyline in Feb., after it was discovered I had 2 x damaged discs in my lower back. Referred me to Physio, (appt. on 22nd!)I was OK for a couple of months, then started to feel dizzy, lost my appetite and taste, everything tastes sweet!, even a roast dinner. Went to see ACP

Laxido - diarrhoea
hi there, I was suffering with constipation so my doctor prescribed Laxido. The label from the pharmacy said take one twice a day generally but if constipated you can take 6 in 1 hour. I took 5 in 1 hour last Saturday. Since then, I have loose stools/diarrhoea. I have bloating and cramps also. I thought

Steroids and Radium 223
Hi Hopefully my husband will start Radium 223 in 4-6 weeks. He recently stopped abiraterone after 5 months as his PSA was doubling every month. While he was on abiraterone he was taking 2mgs of dexamethasone, although 1mg for the last month. He’s currently taking 6mgs of prednisilone but our question

I have had diarrhea most of my life and have used Imodium for the most part. Have been working with GI specialist but no help so far. Taking Colestipol which at least usually keeps me from having an accident but goes not help the symptoms of needing to go. They seem to want to find right pills to help

I was just trawling over my last very full blood results to see what I could learn. Again! All this towards taking T3 which appears to be my very necessary direction. Really there were no surprises. Vit D low, minor so far knock on effect to bone tests etc etc. However, for thoroughness and making

Order of treatment?
My husband has been on Abiraterone for 5 months during which time his PSA has risen,. Before that he had had 6 rounds of Docetaxel which also saw his PSA rise. Having waited for 6 weeks to have a biopsy and get the results for neuroendocrine PC (he didn’t have it) his oncologist has said he can either

Dad with Stage 4 PCa - Need some words of wisdom...again please!
Hi everyone. Just got back from appointment with Dad's oncologist. To keep you up to speed - 3 months ago, his ADT injections stopped working and his PSA started to climb up slowly. Oncologist put Dad on Enzalutamide - been on it for 6 cycles - tolerated well but his PSA has gone from 76 to 87 in one

Letting people down because of IBS
I'd made arrangements to go on a 250 mile train ride to help family members with a really difficult family problem. I knew it was a risk booking tickets and making commitments, but I gambled on it. The stress has been awful the past 3 weeks to a month now. I kept "positive-talking" myself and saying
