How long to wait for a tracheotomy
Hello. So my brother has been weaned off sedation abit. However he has been becoming distressed- not surprising as he has a tube down his throat and the nurses have told him where he is. He is still not fully unsedated - his partner is struggling as she showed him a picture of their daughter but he was

Brother due a tracheostomy
Hi. So update is that my brother is due a tracheostomy but will have to be last in theatre as he is in a covid ward. Apparently one of the nurses slightly reduced his sedation and he was following her around the room with his eyes. She then put his partner on the phone and she was talking to him and

Has anyone tried low dose naltrexone? How did it go for you?
Apparently it can lower TPO antibodies, which in my case, even after removing gluten, dairy and soy, are very high (960). Has anyone tried this?

Toilet training issues Vs constipation
Seriously at my wits end. We're waiting for a consultation with bladder and bowels service, but my four year old son's soiling is still happening multiple times a day and has been ever since we started toilet training over 18 months ago. Nothing works. He's on movicol twice a day, toilet routine etc

New to this and very anxious!
I am increasingly anxious about whether or not I have IBS (or something like IBD?). I have been struggling to register with a GP due to recently moving house and apparently they have too much work to get around to registering new patients, meaning I can only access healthcare via the emergency care routes

Filling in the blanks
Spoke to my mum again at length about my road accident and my injuries. She told me I were extremely lucky to survive as I needed urgent surgery after I'd been hit and I was unconscious throughout the ordeal they kept me in intensive care to monitor the bleed on my head..I knew none of this until today

have we tried everything ?
Hi new here, We no longer have a specialist service locally to support with enuresis. My son is 9, he is wet most nights. We have tried all sorts of things including food/drink management & vasopressin. He has had a bowel and bladder scan, all normal. He is dry during the day but has never been at

Slow transit constipation
Hi there, Calling all sufferers, and wanted to ask what works for you and if senna is the only thing that gets things moving for you? I have been suffering with slow transit constipation since having my daughter with a c-section. I’m pretty sure it was the stomach surgery that’s caused it. I’ve spent

Those taking LDN: how quickly did you increase your dose? Can you go from 0 to 4.5mg in 3 weeks?

Euthanasia and Echinacea
Garshe shared the story of the above and I now have to tell the tale of Princess Diana's funeral when a friend of mine's family gathered together to watch the ceremony live on TV with all the pomp and ceremonial grandeur. This is a large Essex family who often holiday together, aunts and uncles, nieces

Sigmoidoscopy
Anyone had a sigmoidoscopy? I believe it's not as bad as a colonoscopy. I'm having it this Saturday but am so scared. I've requested to be sedated but reading people's views on sedation for colonoscopy procedure it seems it's such a light sedation that it does nothing. I want to cancel but I've been

Home hemodialysis supplies
My hubby passed away and I have a months worth of supplies. Any ideas on who may be able to use them. My renal center said that must be thrown away. Considering the cost I am reluctant to do this
