Laxatives for constipation
What do you use? The gp has just changed me from laxido to fybogel mebeverine. I've taken half a sachet and the pain is horrendous. It is causing awful cramps. I'm not sure what to do as I can't carry on with the constipation. I tried upping the fibre and that did the same and aggrevated the symptoms

Hi everyone As a group of parents with constipation experience, I would love to get your thoughts on the level and type of pain your children have experienced due to constipation. We have been through a long journey of investigation of my daughter's abdominal pain, and although found to have 'hidden

Diarrhoea saga continued
I've had diarrhoea on and off for over a year. It started after breakfast and stopped around lunch time, not every day, but about 3 days a week. It's been slowly getting more frequent. A month or so ago I spoke to the GP who first diagnosed me with PMR/GCA. She tested me for coeliac and cancer, both

Ibs symptoms
I was told I had IBS 29 years ago after having an ultrasound. It all started just after I was diagnosed with thyroid problems. Not a day has gone by where my stomach doesn't bother me, it always feels as if full of wind, bloated, tight and I often have diarrhea especially in the mornings. Anyone else

Virus affecting IBS-D

Advice please
I am 68 years old, I have had ulcerative colitis for 45 years. It has been largely under control for the last 5 years, I believe as a result of taking probiotics and changed diet. 5 years ago I had a colonoscopy as a check up, under the NHS. They found a polyp and removed it. I was told I would have

Advise on these pictures please?
Hi everyone. I’m 25 years old and was a heavy drinker from 2018 - February this year. I’ve quite drinking vodka and other alcohol completely since then. Due to the alcohol my stools haven’t really been normal for years and I don’t particularly have a great diet either. At the moment I’m drinking too

Laxido - diarrhoea
hi there, I was suffering with constipation so my doctor prescribed Laxido. The label from the pharmacy said take one twice a day generally but if constipated you can take 6 in 1 hour. I took 5 in 1 hour last Saturday. Since then, I have loose stools/diarrhoea. I have bloating and cramps also. I thought
