Abdominal distension
I was diagnosed with HGSO grade 3 in 2021. Had 4 rounds carbo/plaxi/avastin, followed by debulking. Completed further 2 rounds of chemo. Cancer recurred within 6 months. So I was denied further surgery. I am BRACA-1. Avastin and PARP wasn't effective. Completed carbo/gem in July and subsequent PET scan

bile reflux
I thought I would bring you all up to speed on my endoscopy yesterday ( Friday 15 March ). I have to say I was surprised by the results, I have Bile reflux, something I didn’t even know existed. It was a bit of a shock if I am honet. So me being me , I read up about it when I got home, as most things

7 weeks and blood in stool
7 weeks of stomach discomfort which can be a little painful but consistently feels like a squeezing feeling and inflamed stool. Didn't have the bleeding but started noticing little blood in my stool. Can anyone take a look and see what they think. I have been referred to gastro but it's a long wait just

bowel obstruction
hello, my Mum is now in palliative care (12 days) for a total bowel obstruction because of a 6 sigmoid volvulus. At 92 an operation is not possible. Almost two weeks now and so far she is coping remarkably - her tummy is huge but otherwise only moderate pain now and then and a need to pee quite often

Has anyone found Mebeverine/Buscopan helpful?
Following a Laparoscopy, it is highly likely that I have Adenomyosis. One of the hardest symptoms is the uncomfortable bowel issues. I get bloating and constipation. I am wondering if it is worth trying Mebeverine or Buscopan. I've tried dietary and peppermint oil but neither really helped.Thank you

Probiotics
Hi I've had ibs c for so so long. Over the years I've learnt what does and doesn't suit me with my diet. I'm now mainly ok in comparison but also as I've got older I get bouts of diarrhea which I know are from eating foods that don't agree with me. I had a fair amount of cream cake over Christmas I'm

CT scan & Colonoscopy but no further on.
Both tests have not revealed (all organs firing OK) why I have had five weeks of bleed (not bright blood) and some dark stools meaning in upper digestive track somewhere. Bleeding stopped now but have very loose stools 2/3 times a day. Had this problem two years ago starting with dark stools and upsets
