Struggling with disimpaction regime
Hello, really hoping someone has some advice as I’m at the end of my tether! My son is 5, he has struggled with constipation since he was 6 months old. He went onto Movicol (just x1 sachet a day) which was working fine to keep his stools soft and passable however when he began potty training at 3y/o

ATM gene mutation
I just received results from genetic testing that I have a ATM gene mutation. I am currently not on any meds and my last PSMA pet scan was negation. I am scheduled for a follow up PSA test mid march based on rising PSA after 5 years undetectable. Based on the ATM finding will this change any future therapy

Newly diagnosed. Looking for advice
Good morning. I've sadly recently been diagnosed with ulcerative colitis. I was suffering 5 years ago with calprotectin score 450 and had a urgent colonoscopy that found polyps and piles which were removed biopsied/ banded. Continued to have on off blood in stools for a few years each time I was blaming

Confused about potential ibs c with overflow diagnosis
So after having a constant list of other symptoms unrelated to bowels i have finally spoke to a gastro who is assuming i have ibs c with overflow. I am on the waiting list for a colonoscopy so this potential diagnosis has been made on a 5 min phone call not an in person appointment. My confusion comes

bowel blockage
Had bowel resection 6 years ago . Iliostomy bag and then successful reversal . Had an appendectomy about a year later, because my appendix were stuck to my ileostomy scar internally. I had pain and went to the hospital, but my surgery wasn’t emergency. I was scheduled about two weeks later for the appendectomy

Not about PCa but interesting: GLP-1 Receptor Agonists help with colorectal cancer
"A research letter recently published in JAMA Oncology has provided some promising insights into the potential of Glucagon-like peptide 1 receptor agonists (GLP-1 RAs) in lowering the risk of colorectal cancer (CRC) among patients with type 2 diabetes. The study involved a national retrospective analysis

pelvic pain
Has anyone tried MRI Defecography tests for rectum and anal pain? It’s a first suggested to me. Don’t know if this may help diagnose this pain.

heart palpitation from suboxome
Lately due to frequent cold I have to increase Buprenorphine and Naloxone to 1.5 mg sublingually (3 quarters of film (2 mg), then I have experienced horrendous heart palpitation and my heart rate goes down to 42 to 44 /minute. Even when I return to my previous dosage which is 1 mg (half film) sublingually

Will Existing Drugs Stop Cancer's Bone Spread? I don't know but it's driving me crazy!
Just because I cannot know which are the two repurposed drugs that seem to have such great results with metastasis. The chief researcher is Neta Erez who has great reputation in research about bone metastasis. I am inclined to think about Ivermectin as one of the possible components of the cocktail,
