Chronic constipation and no definitive diagnosis
Hi all, I've had problems with constipation ever since I was a child. I'm now in my mid 20s and have been to the doctors countless times regarding my constipation. My latest appointment, the doctor said I have slow bowels because my stools are always on the severely constipated end of the stool chart

Diverticulitis diet stages
I've read that a liquid diet should be followed when there's a flare up. Should you wait til pain has gone before moving on to soft diet? When should you resume fibre diet?

New member - symptoms??
I'm new here but would like to know if anyone has similar symptoms... I have been diagnosed with probable IBS (D but sometimes C) by my GP (exclusion diagnosis after various tests). My main symptom is discomfort in the upper right abdomen which is just about always present. Occasionally it is more painful

Post Colonoscopy Result - what could it be?
Hi all, I posted previously about stomach issues I was experiencing. What I could only describe as flare ups - stomach pain, inflamed feeling and sometimes vomiting. Had a stool test done and the calprotectin levels were 500+ I had my colonoscopy today and was so sure they’d say that I had very obvious

Left side new pain
I've got a new symptom lol. Pain at waist level about 3 inches to the left of my navel. It comes and goes and moving around sometimes helps. I do have diverticular in the left sigmoid colon but this is higher up in my abdomen. It's not like a normal churning IBS flare up - bowels relatively normal

Two positive IFA tests, one negative. But positives were all about an hour after receiving b12 injections?
I had low b12, at 156. They gave me the injection. About an hour later they drew my blood and I was pos for IFA but neg for PA. I had an endoscopy and had no atrophic gastritis, so was given another IF test and this time was neg. Went to a new Dr and she gave me a b12 shot, and about 45 minutes later

Bloat?????
I have PD and my only sign is a left hand tremor. But when I eat a small meal I feel bloated all day. Today I woke at 6AM and found a tray of donuts. I ate one and am still bloated at 3PM. I know I must eat to be able to have a BM and if I don't eat my stomach growls while I'm constipated.

Why still low Iron
Hi everyone, Firstly, I wanted to mention that I'm trying my best to remain resilient through this rollercoaster of hormonal fluctuations, but I must admit, I do falter at times. Today, I find myself confined to bed, feeling rather overwhelmed. However, knowing that there are others who can relate keeps

Irritable Bowel
Is IBS a common side effect of Prednisolone? I am really struggling to control bowel movements. I have also had three or four really unpleasant bouts of sudden sickness and diahorrea this year. I do eat quite a lot of fruit and have been trying to cut back but keep wondering, is it me or the drugs

C15 again…
People with PD often lose weight quickly. I wonder if the body is burning fat looking for c15? Wild thought. Here is some more from chatgpt: C15:0 (pentadecanoic acid), like other fatty acids, is both used by the body and accumulated in various tissues, depending on several factors, including

NHS Guidelines 2-monthly injections for B12 deficiency patients with neurological symptoms
Hello All, Browsing the internet (as you do!) and have come across two NHS-issued documents, stating those of us with neurological symptoms should be having 2- and not 3-monthly injections (and should be referred to a haematologist, apparently - personally I've never seen one after over 20 years of
