Does anyone know if there are any brain injury groups either in Weston-super-mare or nearby?
Hi, I'm trying to find out if anyone knows of a brain injury group in Weston-super-mare or nearby. It's for my friend Andy who has a traumatic brain injury after collapsing into the road in April this year. After 6 months I have got some help through Curo and he has a carer to take him to the shops

world mental health day
World Mental Health Day Today I received my new medicine for my hidden illness. I decided I’ll be brave and do what the doctor ordered- take my medicine as prescribed. I’m sure you’re thinking that sounds simple and pretty straight forward. You may have followed those very instructions, for whatever

mesothelioma - anyone tried Opdivo or Yervoy?
Hello I am looking for some advice on mesothelioma, I know there is no hope, but maybe I can at least alleviate my dad's condition - he is short of breath, extremely weak and has chest and arm pain. I read about Opdivo/ Yervoy immune therapy (I believe nivolumab and ipilimumab are the exact drug names

Really emotional
My son just came in from work and said a boy has started from miles away and walks to work and home, taking two hours each way, been offered a lift but says no....I feel sick to my stomach with worry, I’m trying hard not to cry. I just think it’s so sad, my son is really shy and doesn’t mix and that’

More Laura & the DICE TRIAL
Well, turned out to be a hellish week. Lowering the Taxol did help the first two days, but now I realise how much the TAK228 is affecting me the rest of the week. I had awful unrelenting diarrhoea, and no matter how much Ondansetron and Loperamide I took, it was unstoppable. I nearly fainted before

Copper/zinc and the Thyroid
On a recent medichecks test it's transpired that my zinc levels are ABOVE range: 19.76umol/L (range 10.7 - 17.5) This is the first time I have ever had my Zinc levels checked so no way of knowing how long this has been the case but it's very odd since I do not supplement with zinc at all and from what

Neurology update
Good morning all. Yesterday I saw a very nice neurologist who gave me a full neurological exam (including sticking pins into me) . His conclusion was that a) I'm not a witch, and, b) I have no discernable neurological problems. He was somewhat surprised to hear that the rheum had diagnosed fibromyalgia

Thursday W9R3 Sunday 5K race with 1600 others
So pleased with myself. 9 weeks ago the closest I got to running was walking on a treadmill for 10 mins. At W5 of this plan I got an email saying there were still places in the River Ness 5K race which is part of the Baxters Loch Ness marathon weekend. I worked out this would be around graduation day

Stool withholding, laxido and accidents. How do I get the dose right?
My daughter is 3 in December . She's been potty training for 7 months and has been stool withholding most of the time or just pooing in her knickers. After months of trying behavioural interventions my daughter started long term laxatives last Sunday after an awful weekend of constipation and stool withholding

A traumatic event yesterday 💔🇺🇸
Tuesday there was a world war II exhibit at Bradley International Airport in Windsor Locks, CT that my Grandpa attended. He took pictures with it and was so excited! Im sure many of you saw it in the news yesterday (next day) that about 13 people went up in the plane and it crashed. 7 people died, 6

Visit to Nutritionist and Gut Biome Test
Hi All I promised Philbs1980 that I would report back following a Gut Biome Test I had back in late August, the results take a few weeks. Firstly, I saw a Nutritionist back on 17 July 2019 as I was suffering with the after effects of food poisoning which had started on 22 November 2018 and to which

Symptom Free
Everyone is different, and what works for one may not for another. I suffered with RLS for so long, I can’t even remember how long. However in the past 5 years it had become unbearable. I wouldn’t sleep for days on end. I was depressed, tired, and thoughts of suicide starting dancing around in my pea

Wheezing at night
If you are kept awake at night by wheezing, I've found that a dose of Benylin Mucus Max just before bedtime seems to settle the wheezing down for long enough to get to sleep. I don't take it for the rest of the day. It's non drowsy and doesn't seem to interact with any of my other meds - Flutiform, Salbutimol

RLS MEDICATION ADVICE + SHARE OTHERS EXPERIENCE
Had rls for 2 or 3 years now. Refuse to use prescription drugs after reading extreme side effects enclosed in the pack. A friend recently recommended taking A.Vogel horse chestnut drops. Some nights they work, others not. Bought Restiffic foot clamps which also work well sometimes, but not always. On

Is It Time for a Nursing Home?
Hi all Its been a long time since I have been here, I am sorry about that. I have just been in headless chicken mode. My most lovely Mother is in the advanced stages of CBD. She cannot move, communicates mainly with her eyes, has great difficulty swallowing, has skin pressure sores, double incontinence

Another running goal ticked off
Today, wearing my new and improved footwear, I ventured into my first Parkrun. Having not run for over a week, and never in my new trainers, I was feeling very nervous. However, there were lots of lovely, supportive people there that helped with the nerves! My major worry of 'Please don't let me be last

Update on Transplant
Hi all Just a quick update, hubby is now making progress, still in intensive care, but they have removed the ventilator. On kidney dialysis but hopefully that will come good too. I know we have a long road ahead of us but I honestly was scared we might not even get the chance to go on it!!! The staff
