Sigmoiditis
I had a colonoscopy years ago - as I had a positive screening for blood (because I had a haemorrhoid). Years later these sent me another bowel screening kit - and I thought that it would be another false-negative, so I did not bother sampling or sending. Years after that (two years ago) I had lower abdominal

What is the maximum time you can be on prostap 3 injections?
I have been on prostap 3 since October 2020, with add-back HRT, Tibolone, since January 2021, almost 8 months. I'm due to have the next prostap 3 injection next month. I'm on the waiting list for an "urgent" (been waiting almost 9 months); hysterectomy, cyst and ovary removal, with bowel involvement

Could this be Lupus? A very long journey...
Hello all! I've been suffering for 30 or so years with many symptoms. Since puberty I have suffered with absent seizures, hand shakes, joint pain so bad I can't walk, stiff hands in the mornings (my little fingers get locked and need to be manipulated), stuttering (when I'm not feeling good), rashes

Letter from Hep Consultant PBC
Hi received my letter from the consultant - Primary Biliary Cirrosis! instead of Primary Biliary Cholangitis. I was horrified to find the name changed in 2016 and not sure I have much faith in his approach. At no point does it mention Cholangitis, I have a Fib4 score of 5.34 no idea what that means.

Worrying
Hi I have been having multiple tests since having elevated liver enzymes GGT was >400 and ALT>200. I found out today that I also have smooth muscle antibodies does this mean it’s AIH? I’m waiting for a fibro scan appointment and also more blood results. I did phone the helpline and the lady was so helpful

New Mitochondrial enzyme target, and a chance for Oligometastatic patients to step up--MetaCure trial-some information

Hi there, I have stage 4 endo, a tumour on my left ovary and I’m currently on the list to have an oophorectomy. In the meantime I have been having decapeptyl injections with addback hrt. Im guessing the backlog for ops due to covid is going to be at least a year. I have other conditions too, ibs, anxiety

Hysterectomy & ovary removal - what do you wish you'd known first?
Hi, Thinking about surgery, the consultant explained to me that my options might range from removing the endo lesions and restoring of anatomy position, to total hysterectomy with bilateral salpingo-oophorectomy (removal of the uterus, cervix, fallopian tubes and ovaries). I still need an MRI scan to

Normal ALP at time of Diagnosis
Hello. I have had PBC for just over 3 years. I have always had a very normal ALP. I've read that one of the hallmarks of PBC is an elevated ALP. I have positive AMA and other elevated liver enzymes, now normal with urso. Can you explain why my ALP is normal? What does that indicate?

Full Hysterectomy with Ovary Removal and Stoma
Hi everyone, I was diagnosed with Endo after failed fertility treatment three years ago at the age of 39. After numerous scans, laparoscopy, MRI and sigmoidoscopy, the option suggested is a full hysterectomy with ovary removal and sigmoid colon resection due to scar tissue thickening a portion of it.

Fibro, Buprenorphine Patches and CBD Oil
Is there anyone that can give me any good advice. Over a good many years I was on a cocktail of pain medications. In the last couple I have managed to take myself off the pills but still remain on the Buprenorphine patch and anti-depressants. Because of being unsure if the patch was actually working

TEST results from Gallbladder.
I had a Hipa test for gallbladder squeeze and it showed I have 18% function. Supposed to have 40-100%... BUT I now am wondering if anyone did a "cleanse" for sludge etc. I have not had an ultrasound for stones but in 2019 I did and there were none. No more attacks. and I am hoping to keep it that way

Fatty liver and gallstone 😳
Hi everyone I hope someone can give me some helpful advice as I am not getting it from my doctor or the hospital. I had a scan on my stomach as I was feeling nauseous every time I eaten anything so they found I had a fatty liver and a gallstone stuck at the top of my gallbladder but the surgeon said

Exercise with Gallstones

Kidney stones and ibs
I believe there’s a link between kidney stones and ibs and other troubles in this area. Over the last 18 months I’ve had 6 treatments of lithotripsy. Finally my last scan said they were clear. Hooray I thought, it was short lived as the rest of the letter informs me, “ we have noticed a little deterioration

Surgical Menopause - Estradiol gel dose???
Hi all, Anyone who takes estradiol gel for menopause, please may I ask how many pumps you apply each day? I had a total hysterectomy a year ago (everything removed including tubes ovaries cervix) which of course meant I started surgical menopause straight away. After 6 weeks I was prescribed Estradiol

Bowel prep for colonoscopy - long post. Sorry.
Hi. I thought I would kick off with the dreaded bowel preparation (clearing) required prior to having bowel examinations or surgery. There are a number of products (some branding names vary between USA and UK). So, this is my journey this year: Needed a colonoscooy as well as Upper GI Endoscopy so appointment
