Hi all I have taken iron tablets prescribed by my GP for over 15 years. My Ferritin levels were low when I was in my 20s and have taken iron tablets since then. I was really unwell last year with an unrelated illness and I haven’t taken my iron tablets for a few months. My results; Serum Iron levels

more bleeding and pain after Colonoscopy 2 weeks ago
Hi all, Wondering whether anyone else has experienced worse symptoms (particularly more bleeding) following colonoscopy? it’s nearly 3 weeks later and bleeding worse than before the procedure. Gastro refuses to acknowledge this - she says I’m just in a bad flare. I can’t understand why it is worse

The Effect of Intranasal Oxytocin in Patients With Functional Motor Symptoms: A Preliminary Open-Label Case Series
I think I may have FND. I have these jerks and subtle lurches that would not fall under PD (and I have not been diagnosed with PD).

Knowledge is Power
Becoming informed is so important. The more you know the more confidence you have to advocate for yourself. When we come up against arrogant or prejudiced professionals it gives us confidence to stand our ground. However, no matter how much we read as lay people we have to recognise that we don't have

Indeterminate liver lesion
I had an MRI 3 months ago that showed a 6cmx5cm lesion. I had a follow up 3 months later with eovist that showed same size, heterogenous "indeterminate lesion, possible adenoma". No one seems to know what this is and I am freaking out. Does anyone have any experience with this? Do I do a biopsy? Straight

Second opinion required
Had a lot of dental work done last year and kind of still going through recovery. I had two extracts, three temp bridges one perm bridge that was fitted in July, four composite fillings, cap then ended up with a root filling through the cap. My bridge is so uncomfortable still unable to eat properly
