Hyperthyroidism but have no appetite and feeling tired and cold.I’m new here.
Hi, I do not have my blood test results to hand yet, but I know that I have hyperthyroidism and I am slightly anaemic. I saw a consultant a few years ago who prescribed carbimazole. I became really unwell and literally poured with sweat permanently. The consultant took me off and left me with a go to

Cancelled gastroscopy
I was summoned for yet another gastroscopy on Saturday morning ( my 3rd in 5 months) I took my completed medical questionnaire with me and gave it to the nurse. She asked me all the usual questions, checked my blood sugar and INR which were fine. I was canullated and went into theatre. Once I was on

Had my first Gastroscopy
So, finally got a gastroscopy done. The hardest part was waiting to go in. I opted for sedation. So I was wanting them to hurry up and get on with it as once the sedation was in I knew I wouldn't care about anything at all. And this proved to be very true as I don't really remember too much about that

Another gastroscopy
I got a letter today with an appointment for yet another gastroscopy this Saturday morning. This will be my third since july last year. That's on top of 2 CT'S with contrast, an MRI, a capsule endoscopy, a colonoscopy and a liver biopsy. I'm sick of constantly being at the hospital. I've got two appointments

How my AF started...
Question for all the very knowledgeable people on here: Background: I had a Sleeve Gastrectomy (weight loss surgery) in 2012. Extremely successful up until 3 years ago when I began to gain weight but I wasn’t eating more. Then I started having to force myself to be sick after eating just a tiny bit

Back pain after eating
Hi Wondering if anyone can offer advice? I had a total gastrectomy 3 weeks ago, so I’m aware it’s very early days and everything is probably working really hard. I’ve been doing ok, I was having a few hard days over the weekend, bloating and uncomfortable and diarrhoea. I’ve been given digestive enzymes

What a day
I saw my EP this morning and he’s taken me off Amiodarone (yay!). I’m not sure how I’ll go when it eventually gets out of my system. I’m still on Digoxin and Atenolol but even the 3 drugs together weren’t controlling things fully. He was discussing the prospect of another ablation. This will be number

Gall Bladder Removal
Hi all. I have Hashi' s and PA. A recent Gastroscopy revealed stomach erosion and inflammation. I had my gallbladder removed several years ago and wondered if that had any effect on the acid balance in the stomach. Any information please.

Left sided pain and blockage feeling
TL;DR – Have painful left sided tummy cramps, feeling of stool blockage at the same site. Very soft stools, all tests and scopes return normal. Tried IBS supplements, diet change, painkillers, fibre supplements. This is something which has been bugging me for the better part of a couple of months now

Sleep, Nausea Headaches and AF
