Wrong diagnosis
Hi all, I’ve recently finally seen the consultant who advised that she doesn’t think I have endometriosis, but instead have IBS. This is due to when I have a “flare up” the pains come in bursts, and then go - I often describe as what I’d think a contraction to feel like. She has told me to follow a

mum is on large doses of lactulose and diuretics and has been feeling very unwell all day. She hasn’t been able to open her Bowles at all, and seems very confused. is this an A&E job?

Recommendations on places for a Hysteroscopy
I told myself I wouldn’t test and yet I have been testing since 3dp5dt, now 5dp5dt and negative again . My symptoms have been so severe from the oestrogen and the progesterone . I have been pregnant before and it makes you feel pregnant . I have upmost respect and compassion for women that have multiple

Anyone for elective c section?
Hiya. Just wondering if anyone has opted for an elective c section and the reason behind it? I personally would love to give birth by a vaginal delivery, but being a first timer (and probably because of IVF as well), I just don't expect my body to go into labour on its own.I have therefore opted for

Some good news
I was told on the fifth of December that my ultrasound scan had picked up three small suspicious lesions, and that what they saw was suggestive of cirrhosis, portal vein hypertension and varices. I immediately quit alcohol, eating cannabis and otc sleeping remedies. I radically changed my diet and began

cirrhosis analogy
Happy New Year to all! I saw my primary care doc yesterday for my annual exam, after seeing my Hepatologist in August. Both said all of my bloodwork is normal, albeit slightly low platelets. 130’s-140’s. I asked my primary care about 1) possible worsening, 2) measurement of fibrosis (fibroscan)

Extreme fatigue. Any solution?
This is wiping me out. Honestly. It tends to start at about 5 pm and lasts for about 2/3 hours. I used to take Whey protein to counter it but this appears to not hit the spot. I’m utterly exhausted when this phenomenon strikes and am wondering if anyone has any ideas? I take B1 daily (Superior Source

How quickly can cirrhosis worsen.
Hi allI was diagnosed 2 years ago with compensated cirrhosis, portal hypertension, no ascites and 3 small varices that didn't need treatment. Everything was jogging along without change, no worse, no better. But, here it comes, I've had a bad time just lately, my husbands dementia is worsening and I'm

Hi, I've got osteoarthritis and it's getting to the point where the can't enjoy everyday things. I can't walk far without both hips burning. My ankles aching.

I stupidly took to many over the counter tablets over a course of a month ( paracetamol) , I ended up in ANE but blood work come back ok and wasn’t ever treated however I’m worried I left it to long to go to the hospital

Coronary calcium channel score
Is statin prescribing linked to Coronary Calcium score? In late 60's my recent Angiogram was fine but had a CCS score of 25. From what I've read, Statins do not eliminate existing plaque, but stop it getting worse. Always ate healthy, since a child being faddy, cut off every bit fat from meat, wouldn'teat

My friend was diagnosed two years ago and has been relatively healthy since. Losing a lot of weight, eating healthy and rarely drinking. He has been feeling sick lately and feeling bloated.

Anniversary of varices bleed
Up until 23rd December 2022 I thought I was quite well and healthy and rarely needed to visit our GP. Out of the blue on the 23rd December 2022, I started to vomit up approx. 3 - 4 pints of blood, as you can imagine my wife and I were in shock from the whole episode. Following an emergency admission
