Inverted Appendix and Stage 4 Endo
Hi all, I hoping someone has been through similar so I can connect with someone who has similar feelings. I've just been diagnosed with stage 4 endo. My womb, ovaries, tubes and appendix have all stuck to my bowels. I am in terrible pain when passing my bowels on a daily basis so I had a colonscopy

Diverticulitis
I am 75 years old. On Thursday morning I awoke with terrible abdominal pain and diarrhoea followed by heavy blood loss. I was very frightened. I went to A and E where I was looked after really well. They gave me painkillers and X-rays and a CT scan. I had diverticulitis and inflammation of sigmoid colon

IBD and RA
Hi, I’m going through some investigations for IBD atm - the gastroenterologist is being very thorough and linked the inflammatory markers to my RA quite quickly. Does anyone else have any experience of living with both conditions? What sort of things should I be asking and looking for? Thank you in advance

Gas in CT Simulation
Did anyone have trouble getting good imagery in CT simulation or have advice? Went on a low residue diet to prepare for CT simulation. Both times too much gas for imaging despite cutting out so much fiber and plants from diet. I read that about a practice in Austin, TX suggesting Gas-X (simethicone)

can fibroscan tell more than just stiffness
Please does anyone know if a fibroscan shows other things other than stiffness……my Dr has scared the life out of me, I asked her if the report said cirrohsis, she said no it says severe liver impairment, I looked this up ( stupid I know) and it translates as acute liver failure, they make it sound like

Ascites drain
Good morning. My husband was taken in for an ascetic drain in November and was found to have Peritonitis which was treated before the drain. He is now on a daily oral antibiotic.

more bleeding and pain after Colonoscopy 2 weeks ago
Hi all, Wondering whether anyone else has experienced worse symptoms (particularly more bleeding) following colonoscopy? it’s nearly 3 weeks later and bleeding worse than before the procedure. Gastro refuses to acknowledge this - she says I’m just in a bad flare. I can’t understand why it is worse

The Effect of Intranasal Oxytocin in Patients With Functional Motor Symptoms: A Preliminary Open-Label Case Series
I think I may have FND. I have these jerks and subtle lurches that would not fall under PD (and I have not been diagnosed with PD). I have been diagnosed with REM Sleep Behavior Disorder, which is likely a sign of something not good coming, but I am working on heading that not good thing off at the pass

omeprazole long term
Hello, advice please on long term use of Omeprazole, one 20mgs a day. I've been on Omeprazole for years now as I suffer from GERD. I recently asked my consultant about coming off Omeprazole but he stated as it is such a low dosage, to keep taking. There is so much on the internet about this medication

Repeat Lutetium/ Pluvicto treatment
Hello all, I am just curious if anyone has experience doing additional lutetium treatments. I did three lutetium treatments from September 2021 to January 2022. My Denver oncologist is concerned about bone marrow toxicity , but he does not have enough experience with this treatment to say for sure.

Knowledge is Power
Becoming informed is so important. The more you know the more confidence you have to advocate for yourself. When we come up against arrogant or prejudiced professionals it gives us confidence to stand our ground. However, no matter how much we read as lay people we have to recognise that we don't have

Blood thinner options...
Diagnosed earlier this year. Working my way through due to uncomfortable physical side effects.... (Done edoxaban, rivaroxaban) on 5mg 2 x daily now. Does it follow that Apixaban if twice daily , is a lower dose therefore, more gentle on your stomach and your system? Wondering if there is ever truly

Hearing loss and tinnitus and driving
Hi everyone, I am new to this forum so would just like to relate my journey. I started in June with sudden unilateral hearing loss, vertigo and terrible tinnitus.The first couple of months have been horrendous, not helped by the fact that I could not be seen in a timely manner by the NHS. I eventually
