nexplanon implant removal
hi ladies, I’ve bled constantly since having my excision surgery in October. Been to my specialist who recommended that I have my implant out and reset my body completely then see about another form of contraceptive control in 3-6 months. Just had my implant removed today. Wondering how long it might

Advice about diarrhoea symptoms please
I have had very little assistance from my GP in relation to my Pernicious Anaemia with gastric parietal cell antibodies diagnosis earlier this year. GP reluctantly agreed 5 loading doses but no more than three monthly injections after that, even though I have neurological symptoms. I have been supplementing

Acid reflux
Anyone noticing difficulty swallowing along with acid reflux? I read that prednisone can cause this, causes the esophagus to not contract enough. I tried Pepcid but it's not helping.

IBS Colitis or what?
About a month ago I starting having a lot of cramping, loose stools, attributed it to my long standing IBS. I go for colonoscopies every 2 years after finding a cancerous small polyp (removed and resectioned with clips at Mayo, great hospital and doctors), and have had no problems in the past several

bowel movements
Does anyone else deal with a really sluggish bowel? I feel like the majority of the time, I struggle to empty my bowel and have really hard and slow bowel movements and it doesn’t matter what I eat (foods with lots of fibre etc), it doesn’t seem to make a difference, and then I get really stressed out

I was diagnosed with stage 2 endometrioid cancer five years ago. I went through chemo treatments: carboplatin and taxol. I even had IP belly washes of taxol.

pain in stomach and side
hey guys. I’ve had a pain in my left hand flank for about 5 months now that doesn’t seem to go away and also reverts to my stomach also on the left and also recently into my bum. I have lots of gas which feels weird to push out and also have had different bowl movements with the end of the stool sometimes

rectal bleeding
hello everyone! I am a 28 year old woman who recently started having some rectal bleeding. It is not in my stool (as my stool is completely normal colored, not black or tarry and normal shape) first day it started when I wiped. Next day there was nothing, the following day there was blood in the toilet

How to cancel social events
Hi ladies. Hope your flare free.I'm looking for advice on social events. I know this is so minor in comparison to other issues, but I'm really struggling. I'm currently waiting on my 3rd surgery for hysterectomy and bowel resection. My life is tough at the moment holding down a stressful full time job

Prednisolone and Omeprazole
I have had PMR and GCA for 7 Years and was told I had to take 10 mg daily of Omeprazole which I have been on for the 7 Years. I am now on 3mg steroids but have been getting a lot of tummy upsets and wondered if the long term use of Omeprazole is causing it. I have gone Lactose and Gluten free as well

Positive Cologuard
63 years old, never had colonoscopy and now feel I’m gonna pay the price. No cancer in family (yet), was having no symptoms, went with Cologuard which came back positive in June. Right after that developed extreme stress and anxiety due to mother passing and trouble in family. Then the next week symptoms

Pain relief for endo nightmare!
My very first time to ever post anything, anywhere so I hope I do it correctly! I had surgery 10 months ago for stage IV endometriosis (my ovaries were engulfed with big cysts & various sites scattered around pelvis). Unfortunately symptoms are back already and I'm truly suffering 😢 DESPERATE bloating
