3 days no sleep
since a very young child after losing 1 parent with other in ICU with what drs said .01 % survival chance I’ve struggled beyond what words can describe with insomnia. The thought of going to bed sleep even when exhausted brings on a physical discomfort that I cannot get away from. Drs can’t find anything

sorry for all questions
I’m going to see my consultant following my recent ultrasound and due a blood test next week that hopefully won’t have changed much fingers crossed.

Loose Stools & Chronic Bleeding
For an extended period, I've been grappling with the challenge of loose stools, often accompanied by substantial bright red bleeding, despite this not meeting the definition of diarrhea. This issue has persisted for several years. However, during a stay in Nepal last year, my home country, I experienced

Anniversary of varices bleed
Up until 23rd December 2022 I thought I was quite well and healthy and rarely needed to visit our GP. Out of the blue on the 23rd December 2022, I started to vomit up approx. 3 - 4 pints of blood, as you can imagine my wife and I were in shock from the whole episode. Following an emergency admission

Suggestions for questions for gastroenterologist?
Good evening all. Hope you’re as well as can be. Following 4 - 5 months of nausea, epigastric pain, chest pain and palpitations etc I recently underwent an endoscopy. The consultant’s initial report stated ‘diffuse erosive gastritis’ and ‘generalised ulcerated mucosa’. I have some photos and have to

Ovarian cancer recurrence
Firstly, hi to anyone who may stumble across my post. Long story short, I was diagnosed with stage 4 ovarian cancer back in 2020. I had an ultra radical debulking surgery in August that year, followed by 6 rounds of carbo/taxol and maintenance via olaparib. I had a CT scan back in August which highlighted

Any advice for gastro symptoms which respond to steroids, but no diagnosis? Does normal colonoscopy cover the small bowel?
hi all, I hope it's ok to post here - I don't have a diagnosis of crohn's or colitis but am looking for information. I'm diagnosed coeliac (6+ years ago) and autoimmune hypothyroid, with ongoing and increasing gastro symptoms - the main problem being that I feel extremely unwell like I've got flu
