Constant Lower Abdominal Pain But No Change in Bowels - Getting Desperate
I'm a 27-year-old otherwise healthy female from the UK and I've been unwell since August 2020. My main symptom is the feeling of trapped gas in the lower abdomen, more towards the pelvic area and next to the hip bone. The pain is worse on the left but sometimes spreads to the right. When I massage the

Blood tests
Hi folks. I was diagnosed coeliac about 5 years ago, following blood tests and endoscopy. I need to get some bloods done. What bloods should I ask for to check I am managing my diet well? I think it is IgA, and tTG? Next question is what should the results look like if I’m managing it well? I have no

Enlarged spleen
I have my first endoscopy scheduled for 19th Jan and l am terrified, both of the procedure and of what might be found. I am given to understand that it will be performed by the Hepatology Consultant whom l have not yet met. Since my cirrhosis diagnosis last month l am sick with worry the whole time

Stomach Pain, new here...
Hi, been watching this forum and would be great if anyone can shed some light on my issue..... I have had a dull stomach ache, middle, for over two months now. I have had an endoscopy, a ct scan with contrast, and neither had any issues. The consultant has said in a letter, no further tests required!

Pain under ribs on the right side.
Hi I'm new here and wanted to ask if anyone has ever been the the same thing. It felt like an ulcer at first. I've had it for over a month. I had my gallbladder taken out over a year ago. A gastroenterologist did an endoscopy and said I had gastritis and an inflamed colon but said nothing about what

Ascites: Weight vs litres>
Dear all I have cirrhosis- non alcohol related. Two years ago I developed bleeding varices, but when they did an endoscopy, they had stopped bleeding so no further action was taken. About 6-8 weeks ago, I developed ascites. I did not recognise it at first, I think I will if it happens again. I was

What to expect with an ERCP?
I had my gallbladder removed in November of last year but sadly my symptoms didn't improve at all. A recent endoscopic ultrasound confirmed a stone remains in my bile duct and this is to be removed by ERCP. I've not been able to find much online to explain what happens during the procedure, whether

My IBS symptoms- anyone similar?
I made some notes about what I’ve been experiencing this past year. In addition to what’s below I should add I never really have any pain and currently my main symptom is terrible, foul gas pretty much everyday which is embarrassing and uncomfortable. Dr suggests an endoscopy next so I’ll be scheduling

Beyond b12 Injections - What else can we do?
"The American Society for
Gastrointestinal
Endoscopy
also considers it a premalignant condition, they suggest that a single endoscopy be performed at diagnosis, noting that the risk of cancer appears to be greatest within a year of pernicious anemia diagnosis."

How long for colon cancer to develop?
I’m 60... had a colonoscopy 14 years ago. No polyps, normal colon except for internal hemorrhoids. 4 years ago had endoscopy for food stuck in throat. Esophagus, stomach and duodenum all examined after food removed and “no abnormalities were seen” other than irritation in esophagus from stuck food. Now

Coeliac blood test results
Has anyone had high test results for coeliac disease and an endoscopy come back as non coeliac? My blood results were 107 which is really high apparently. I’m due an endoscopy on Saturday and hoping it comes back intolerant rather than coeliac

High ggt and alp, scans clear, is it worth further investigation
Hi, my ggt been high (120 now was around 300) and alp just over the limit for the past couple of years. It’s not getting worse and has improved, but not come within the safe levels by giving up alcohol. I have now had ultrasound and Fibroscan done, both completely clear. Consultant has said nothing wrong
