chronic diarrhoea
I reduced to 5mg from 5.5 on 25/06. After about a week had intense nausea, headache for 2 days. From last week I’ve had chronic diarrhoea and stomach cramps. Literally as soon as I eat they come on and I go again. Gp has said it would be nothing to do with tapering. Also said I didn’t need to add more

diverticulosis
well after 10 months of many laxatives for chronic constipation, 8 months since an X-ray showed considerable faecal loading, I finally had a colonoscopy! The diagnosis is Diverticulosis. Fantastic that the diagnosis wasn’t cancerous, nevertheless, it doesn’t help the abdominal and back pain that

Why taking anti-inflammatories including Pred could lead to a stomach ulcer
Dr Mark Porter who is a working GP writes most weeks in The Times. The link to today's article is below because he mentions steroids as well. I hope it opens. If it doesn't I can cut a paste the parts of interest. https://www.thetimes.com/article/184977ba-beb6-4db5-ad10-62e8fbb57add?shareToken=caa43823ee68fa182865e92faa5502b2

Upper left pain …gastro update
Just a quick update which hopefully helps others. I’ve just had an upper endoscopy and this showed mild gastritis. I’m very fortunate to have a great NHS doctor who listened to my concerns and supported me gaining assurances that there is nothing seriously wrong. I’ve still got the upper left quarter

Adenmyosis and Constipation
I found out recently that adenmyosis can cause bad bouts of constipation, which explains a lot for me. However all the dr’s do is plug me with laxitives and tell me to eat prunes (which I have explained doesn’t help) because (and I apologise if this is TMI) my stools aren’t hard, it’s not a fibre intake

Post laparotomy
Hello dear ladies, I am 5 days post my debulking surgery which went quite well. So far I have not had major issues… except bowel problems. Now they are talking about post op ileus or intestinal paralysis. Has anyone experienced this complication? What was done to treat it

Flagyl ( Metronidazole) Side Effects
Hi my friends, I was given Flagyl to treat my digestive system after an episode of food poisoning but this medicine caused a lot of annoying side effects like heartburn and bloating. Did any one had this medicine and how did you feel. Many thanks

Terrible stomach pain with Adrenavive I
I swapped to Adrenavive I from Adrenavive II at the beginning of June. Since starting the new product I've found it gives me horrible stomach pains, last week to the point of vomiting. The pains eventually subside but it takes around 4-5 hours. I get these pains despite eating before taking the product

Creating a Framework for Treating Autoimmune Gastritis—The Case for Replacing Lost Acid
A paper from Bruce Wolffenbuttel and colleagues, released last February https://www.mdpi.com/2072-6643/16/5/662 Conclusion: [i]"Autoimmune gastritis is not a gastritis that needs acid suppression; rather, it may benefit from acid supplementation. The loss of stomach acid in AIG precedes nutrient deficiencies

low stomach acid
Post from lady on here earlier caught my attention and I wonder if any of you knowledgable people can throw some light on this? I done the home test - some baking soda & water first thing and no burp at all which indicates low stomach acid. Thankfully I do not have discomfort but I’m concerned about

Varying results on FIT tests
I have had IBS for decades so thought I had just been having a bad flare up of that for the past month. Stools were very dark but no visible red blood. I took a home FIT test one day to make myself feel better (it didn’t) and it quickly came up positive. Hoping it was faulty test, I repeated the next
