maybe I should make my conditions clearer. intussusception is when the lining of the bowel folds back on itself and makes an inverted U shape which then makes it very difficult for anything to pass through the bowel unless it is very soft, so making constipation or blockages , Like a tyre inner

Kidney update and possible gallstones
Hi everyone, it’s been a hot minute since I posted about my kidneys! A few weeks ago I found out I had leaky protein, but I saw the specialist (who was pretty thorough) and he’s not worried about it. And if he’s not worried, I’m not worried! We’re gonna review in 3 months’ time. I’m so glad it turned

deranged LFT and Gallbladder perforation
hi, hoping someone may have experience like mine. I had a perforated gallbladder whilst in hospital with Sepsis back in November. Because of my weight and existing issue the team didn’t want to operate as keyhole wasn’t an option so would have involved open surgery. So I was put on antibiotics for 6

ERCP - Failed
Anyone had a failed ERCP? The specialist did not manage to put in the stent and will try again later this week. The whole experience is like Mr Bean but that's another story. Summary - relative presented with high bilirubin - had 3/4 blood tests and still high (in a period of 3 weeks) - ERCP scheduled

pain upper right side
I started with a terrible pain in my upper right side into my back with a gnawing sensation to the upper right front about 4 weeks ago. Liver function tests were not normal but an ultrasound concluded no gallstones and liver, gallbladder, spleen all looked normal. Still in pain, which starts in the evening

I was staying in a hotel room and I awoke early hours in the morning with V&D , luckily I manage to drive home safely however nausea was terrible. I then had V&D for 10 days. At this

Ercp - upset stomach after eating four days later.
I had an ERCP procedure on Thursday to remove a stone from my bile duct. This was said to be successful and the consultant noticed they spotted very dark bile sludge draining away. Up until Thursday my bowel habits were normal. But since Friday lunch I have had an upset stomach after almost every

Gallstones
Hello again 👋 Well I didn't expect this! I'm just out of A&E after a gallstone attack. Excruciating, until the morphine kicked in. I've been given strong painkillers and antibiotics. I'm a bit miffed, as I've been following a Low Fodmap, anti- inflammatory, pescatarian diet for as long as I can remember

post cholecystectomy issues
I had my gallbladder out (gallstones) 10 years ago and for the first 5 or so years I had no problems whatsoever, life returned to normal. Then I started getting these weird night time vomiting events. Always seemed to be woken between 2 and 3am with a heavy pressure in my stomach/gut, not feeling nauseas

cholecystectomy and cirrhosis
I’ve been advised that I need a cholecystectomy due to a polyp (9 x 6.5 mm). I have cirrhosis, but am fully compensated. I have been told that this operation can be very dangerous for someone with cirrhosis. Any help or advice please?

Another round of Covid vaccine in UK …..
News of a new variant and adapted Covid vaccine is in the UK media to-day, raising the question for me whether to get it or not. I’m nervous as I recall my PMR starting 2 days after my very first jab (Pfizer) - my system was in a very stressed state at the time. I am currently half-way through 5-week
