Really constipated
I have lately been going 4-5 days without a BM. Today is day 5. My wife wanted to go to the beach, so I took her. Around 1pm I told her I needed to get back to our unit to take care of business. She knows it's day 5. I tried to dissuade her, but she insisted on coming back. I took a TBSP of castor oil

Coconut Oil for Coronavirus - Anti Viral Strategy?
Hi I'm w&w diagnosed 18 months ago, I'm using coconut oil due to its strong anti virus abilities. Coconut oil contains medium chain triglycerides that have strong antiviral, antifungal, and antibiotic properties, all of which can promote healing and help prevent secondary infections in wounds caused

I have prostate cancer which started over 3 years ago, I did chemo and lupron which seemed to work great for couple of years then PSA started going up like to 122. I must mention that I have the BRCA 2 gene which makes my cancer somewhat aggressive. My onc put me on Xtandi which worked for 7-8 mos but

vitamin b12 supplement
Hi, I'm new here & need some help. I think I'm still stage 3 CKD & have been watching sodium, potassium, phosphorus & protein. I am concerned that I'm not getting enough vitamins. I already had multiple food allergies before CKD but my B-12 levels had been normal. Can anyone suggest a brand of supplements

Can both t4 and t3 be used in treatment for hypothyroid.
Yesterday and today I've taken one and a half grains of armour and 25 of levo sodium. Probably silly but I feel like I have more energy. Is it ok to take both meds???

Can Sodium Lauryl Sulfate cause similar reaction as PG?
My son is allergic is PG - confirmed through patch testing. I've been VERY careful to avoid any medications that include PG as ingredient (which is challenging!). I'm noticing that my son's face is frequently red and splotchy (a reaction he used to get when he took medication that had PG in it). In playing

Is this just bad constipation?
Hi Guys, I need your advice here. Male 53, good diet, non smoker, walk daily with dogs, on feet at work, been on Lansoprazole for 8 years struggling with full rectum high up. I go for BM every morning without fail and seem to do plenty then may do more an hour later but much softer. By early afternoon
