PiP
thank you guys who responded to my message. I have been in touch with CAB today and they inform me im not intitle to any pip at all. But they are raising the issue higher up as they deem it so unfair that post covid and especially those who were in ICU with covid aren't getting the right help financially

Overcoming chronic depression/ anxiety
Hi guys, I have struggled with mental health issues since childhood, I can go through months of struggling or months of success but so far, it ALWAYS comes back. I’m 32 now and was wondering if anyone else has experienced long term recurring depression/anxiety like that and has anyone managed to permanently

Can you get impacted again even when on a movicol maintenance dose?
My daughter has been suffering from constipation for a year. In May we went through our third disimpaction routine. As part of it we kept her on a very high dose of movicol as well as Senna for a month. Then slowly slowly we brought it down to 4 sachets daily. In the last week or so, she’s been unable

Toilet training resources
Hi there, we recently toilet trained my son (he was 3 at the time but has just turned 4) but he is still struggling with doing a poo on the toilet. He has managed to do this twice but has had many accidents. When it’s obvious he needs to go you can almost see a look of panic come over him and he’ll disappear

Muscle Twitching
Hi, Just a quick question. I am 5 months into recovering from a brain abscess which required a burr hole aspiration. I have a number of ongoing symptoms, although most are not debilitating. A new thing that seems to have sprung up over the last few days is muscle twitching around my eye area, particularly

Hemodialysis safely
Hello my name is Briana and I am considering doing
hemodialysis
at
home
. I live in a apartment and l hear that after your done with your treatment there is trash which may contain blood. How do you dispose of a bag with blood if you live in an apartment. Is there a specific way of doing this?

Plasma donation.
Sharon has just gone off to the Blood donation center to donate plasma, for therapeutic purposes towards Covid. She has also taken my all my details along with her. Unfortunately, having cancer means my blood cannot be used in a transfusion, but I am prepared to donate for research purposes. To perhaps

Colonoscopy with AF and ICD?
I've had several colonoscopies with AF and sedation, with no problems at all. But now - I have an ICD. Is an EP by protocol required to be present to switch it on and off before and after? If so, that must mess up their schedules badly.

Tyramine, MAO A and MAO B has any one tried a tyramine reduced diet?
I was reading up on MAO inhibitors as the question was asked which is best, an MAO inhibitor or C/L. My husband has had a genetic test and his results say he has lower expression of MAO A and B so I imagine inhibiting it further is probably not a good thing. But reading this it looks like reducing

Olaparib question - temperature and feeling rubbish.
Hello ladies. Hope you're all having a good weekend. Looking for a bit of advice. I've been on Olaparib now for five months. For the last two weeks I've felt exhausted, tired and 'not quite right' which I put down to side effects of the tablets. About five days ago I woke in the night shivering and

Agitated when waking up from induced coma
My boyfriend has been in an induced coma following a severe head injury for over 3 weeks. Every time they try to wake him they say he gets “agitated” but surely this is normal? How are they ever going to bring him around if he gets agitated every time? I feel like we are getting no where, and then they

My child is suffering
My 9 year old daughter woke up one day back in May wet and said she can’t hold her urine anymore. Since then it seems like she lost her ability to control urination completely. We checked and re checked, I was told that her guts are blocked. She’s always been constipated but now it’s on a diff level

Dad has been bedridden for 2 months Post-Covid
Hi all, my father has been in a wonderful rehab center since 5/23. He is slowly, very slowly, regaining certain muscles. For example, the nurses sit him up and he can hold the seated position on his own for 1-2 minutes, and can sway his body left and right. He could only hold the position for 8 seconds
