Earlier Part of Morning in the Loo
Thanks for all your replies. Seems many of you have similar experience of being in and out of the loo for first part of the morning. I have an early morning meeting coming up next week. Plan to eat very little the night before, get up very early, then take an Imodium before I go out. Last year I gave

Leading the Troops by Example
Hey Troops, This is a challenging time of year for us with finicky livers so I thought I would post daily to show what I am doing to maintain a good state. The transplant doctor that has been monitoring me says I am nothing short of the poster girl for adherence to instruction as nobody ever does what

The Strengths and Keys of my Recovery
Hey Troops, Potty Mouth is back as several of you have messaged me to ask about what I have done to support such a great response to health so here it is. I began August 9, 2018 with decompensated stage 4 cirrhosis. I had ascites, HE, jaundice, crazy itching and liver values off the chart. I also had

5 day constipation - how to clear?
As I've complained many many times on here, I've had a storm of IBS D* since May but my problem has eased a little due to a starchy diet and a decrease in stress. However. Last Thursday was a MESS. Not only did I go back to my old city to meet a guy I'd been talking to for 5 weeks (we had mutual friends

Syncope diagnosis
I have always been prone to light headed ness and fainting but not that regularly until the last 18 months. I had brain surgery 12 months ago to remove benign tumour and now the symptoms are daily and I have been advised that brain surgery can exaggerate the condition. Initially I was told my first episode

I there a better diet tracker?
Does anyone know of a diet tracker other than the Davita one, that shows nutritional values for food by weight (ounces, grams, lb., etc.)? One thing that makes it difficult to be completely accurate with the Davita tracker, is that sometimes the measurements for a particular item are very difficult (

Not the most pleasant of questions
I have cirrhosis and along with a multitude of other medication I take lactulose daily. Now as you may be aware one of the nice side effects of lactulose is flatulence, and I mean pretty much none stop. This is both embarrassing to me and irritating to my family, is there anything I can do? is it ok

Extreme fatigue. Could it be the trileptal? Low sodium?
My soon to be 9 year old son has been on Guanfacine for 1.5 years. We are on 3mg. Once a day. Started having more issues at home and the school too. Psychiatrist added trileptal - 75mg am, and 75 mg after school. It’s been 3 weeks and 2 days since we started. If anything, his moods have gotten worse

Levo and Sodium
Hi everyone it’s been awhile since I’ve been here. So I have a question I’ve taken the RAI pill two years ago and I’m on 112 mg of my Levo it has Sodium in it. I also have early stages of Cirrhosis and I don’t have any trace of Hep-c so I been reading up on my meds and noticed it will make my liver worse

FDA investigating Metformin for Carcinogens
The investigation by the FDA of Metformin (probably the most investigated drug of all time given its long history for use with Type 2 diabetes) for the carcinogen NMDA is of some concern given the plethora of generic manufacturers of this drug, especially from India and China. NDMA or NMN is usually

IBS-C & low sodium levels in blood test
Hi all Does anyone else have low sodium levels in their bloods? If so, did you experience any adverse effects? I think mine is low because I drink about 4 litres of water a day (I came out of the womb thirsty :) - however i think being low in blood sodium could be contributing to my IBS-C. The reason

**UPDATE** Bloods: consistent low sodium levels (Bit freaked out!)
**Update:
I just spoke with my Dr - my urine sample came back normal - no Addison's or anything else! Wow, what a massive relief. Thanks to all who have contributed and offered support. I am on day three of cutting back water and adding salt back into my diet.
All the best

Vitex and Myo inositol
Hi I have SLE over the past 9 years. I have PCOD and hormonal imbalance. I am trying to conceive for the past 3 years. But all the treatments failed. I tried IUI also. Now I am planning to take vitex and Myo Inositol supplements to cure hormonal imbalance. Is it good or bad to try them with lupus?
