This one's gonna be a long one..! - LPR: A chronic, troublesome puzzle
First of all I'd like to say that I have read the replies to my previous posts, and taken them to heart. I'd like to personally thank everyone who has offered their support so far. However I cannot take these replies to my head, as right now it is illogical to say that I have anything other than LPR,

Has the low fodmap diet helped anyone like me?
Hi there, is anyone finding the low fodmap diet is working for them? I've been on it for a week and I'm surprised at the difference it's having. I've suffered for 12 years with pain ranging from annoying to agonising, recently migraines have become common, bleeding, sickness, lack of energy, poor short-term

No hope, no cure, no future. Hit rock bottom ;(
Forgive me for this extra long post, but I'm honest and truly at the end of my rope. The "s" word has crossed my mind a lot in the last few days, and I was hoping a session of hypnotherapy would relieve it. It didn't, in fact only moments after leaving I fell to my knees in tears. I'll explain my story

Where are the hospital gowns?
Hi - I was very surprised yesterday that I didnt have to change into a hospital gown for the Gastroscopy! I kept all my ordinary clothes on. When I had a barium swallow recently, I had to change into a gown. I wonder if it's the new way of doing things? I would have thought a gown would have been appropriate

Barium was normal, why do I need Gastroscopy?
Hi - my barium swallow was normal, so I am just wondering why the consultant said I could have a motility problem caused by the Raynaud's, and have to have the camera down? Got my appt now, I go on Thurday. Will choose sedation. Thanks for all your previous replies, much appreciated.

My Neurology Appointment Didn't Go So Well This Week.
But I wasn't surprised, either. My existing symptoms seem to be escalating i.e. loss of balance and falls, and a few new ones that have snuck in there that concerned me. Such as the amount of times I've aspirated over the last several weeks. 1/2 a dozen maybe? Maybe it sounds like little to those

Coughing
Hi All you fellow survivors Ever since my op two and a half years ago I have had a dry persistent cough. At first I just put it down to having my lung deflated during surgery. But as time has gone on I got a little concerned that there was something else going on. It has taken nearly a year of

Ho hum. As my Onc said when I saw him last Monday, " Hello. You've been in the wars again, haven't you?"
Yep. That's me! Having got my strength more or less back after my life-threatening upper intestinal bleed last October I once again did a great family Christmas, with the same attitude I've had for the past few years i.e This'd better be good because it might be my last one. But as soon as the hoo-ha

Pain, pain, pain
Reading posts on this site has been illuminating. I have had IBS for as long as I can remember (I'm 66). Even as a small child I can remember saying I had a 'funny feeling and tummy ache' and doctors scratching their heads about the cause, which was never found. Over the years I've had barium meals

90 (plus) essential nutrients that we all need.
In Britain, we have beautiful, rich, soil varieties that contain all of the required life-giving nutrients that hold the magical 'pinch' of life's wealth and health. We only ever hear about a few of the minerals and vitamins that are required in our diet but I would like to share with you a little information
