Endoscopy & diverticulitis
Dr wants to do endoscopy in 8 weeks time to see if infection has gone. Won't blood tests, and lack of pain tell him that? What are the benefits of an endoscopy?

IBS stomach issues
For years we have experienced stomach issues and pain while eating pretty much anything. We have tried the fodmap diet, and medications. We have now done a colonoscopy and are on prescription medication. We are very concerned that these meds are not helping after 3 months of taking them. Has anyone else

Bad Diarrhoea & Gas
I’m sorry if this post sounds quite rank, but I just wondered if anyone else is experiencing this. For the last 4 days I have been getting stomach cramps, and my stomach has been doing a lot of churning noises, which lead to really really bad gas and diarrhoea! It’s been 4 days in a row now, at night

Looking for advice for my newly diagnosed dad
Hello, I was wondering if you can offer some thoughts on my dad’s situation. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer in February after a week in hospital with urine retention. A Ct scan he had in hospital showed 2 small mets in pelvic area. He’s had a biopsy which showed Gleason 4 +5 and his PSA in hospital
