care options for H.E and decompensated cirrhosis
Hey, hoping for some advice on care options for someone suffering with cirrhosis and H.E My dad was diagnosed this January, but clearly quite late on - he has since had 4 hospital admissions due to severe (stage 3) H.E and one time he went into coma (stage 4). This latest admission lasted 2 weeks

laxido IBS C. Intussusception, rectocoele and diverticulosis
hi all, I’d be grateful for anyone else’s experience with any of the above conditions. I take laxido every day and have taken them for about 2 years now. They make the stool softer to avoid diverticulitis but I still can’t have a BM by myself and need an enema. Does anyone else need these. along

prep for EBRT? Daily enema?
I’ve been getting some confusing, and contradictory info regarding what prep I’ll need when I start my EBRT next month, regarding enemas. I grasp that I’ll need to do one before my CT Sim Monday. But then on the instruction sheet Emory/Winship sent me, it said I would have to have one

wtf is this
I’m in so much pain these days and waiting to see the GI doctor to have a colonoscopy and a endoscopy done at the same time . Unfortunately Kaiser is such an amazing hospital that I can’t be seen till mid march since they have to make a bigger time slot for me to have both procedures at once. So he is

I feel like I’m dying.
After my first test today (anorecora manometry)…to see how my muscles are preventing me from pushing what’s inside to me - I got home and was hoping that I would not have the urge to go..but I did, when I tried, I got stuck as usual, and after TWO enemas - I’m finished.

Withholding, pain and severe difficulty with oral medication

constipation leading to Pelvic Floor dysfunction
I have IBS - C and over the years the medical fraternity have prescribed laxatives for me. I’m following a low fermentation & FODMAP diet which works well for me. However my constipation due to a lot of straining has turned into PFD which basically means my anal muscles are out of sync. Does anyone suffer

Barrigel is now preferred over "SpaceOAR" gel?
Consulted by video with the doctor who is supposed to install my SpaceOAR in preparation for my IMRT. His first words were "we don't use SpaceOAR gel anymore. We use Barrigel." He explains it has fewer side effects but the same radiation absorption characteristics. Here is what "UroToday" says:

Eczema around eyes - Any Treatment advice?
Hi! Several months ago I started noticing red marks on my eyelids and above my eyes. This was during an asthma flare up. The doctor has since confirmed it's eczema and it's the first time I've experienced this. I was given Hydrocortisone cream (1%) which I used for 2 courses and this has cleared it up

Salofalk foam enema - should I feel it?
Thanks in advance if anyone has experience using foam enemas - in particular, Salofalk.

Was very shocked and disappointed to learn that my ulcerative proctitis has

Why am I afraid to go to the bathroom?
I’ve been dealing with constipation issues for the past year. I can only attribute it to gettin older - never had any problems before that. I won’t go into the details of what I have tried - I’ve taken lots of great hints from videos and forums; a lot of it seems to work - and then it doesn’t.

Wow 😯. That’s a title eh?! Straight to your imagination I reckon. DON’T read this post whilst having your dinner. I went to the gym this afternoon. I had very little energy and had a strong sense that my meds hadn’t really hit the spot? I reflected on this and observed that I hadn’t had a bowel movement
