Salofalk foam enema - should I feel it?
Thanks in advance if anyone has experience using foam enemas - in particular, Salofalk. I just had colonoscopy and endoscopy 2 days ago after suffering a UC flare up as a result of COVID with intestinal symptoms in November. Was very shocked and disappointed to learn that my ulcerative proctitis has

Considering orchiectomy due to chronic constipation from Orgovyx
I've been on Orgovyx for 33 months for metastatic prostate cancer. Constipation is a known issue with Orgovyx and it has affected me to some degree most of the 33 months. Earlier this year it seem to get more chronic and intractable. I'm also currently using a 37.5mg weekly E2 patch, up from 0.025 twice

Tests
How do you all get these tests done. I've had IBS for over 10 years and no test has ever been offered to me . I suffer every other day . And even going to my GP all she said is take probiotics, mebeverine and cut down on fibre , as I have IBS (D) and sometimes mixed . Every morning is a battle going

Familial Polycythemia
Hi,I wondered if anyone could advise on what care we should be getting for familial polycythemia? my 2 children (age 24 & 27) and I were tested at Guys a few years ago for the Jak2 gene, it was negative & we were discharged. Our blood tests always show a red cell count around 5.6, Haemoglobin 160

anismus
I have chronic constipation. I think it is casued by various muscles not relaxing as the symptoms fit what I have read online. There are vaious names for this, anismus, dysssergenic defaecation and obstruced defaecation. I looked on this site and this is one of the groups that seems appropriate to post

probiotics stomach upset
Hi, I was interested in trying probiotics, namely Kefir to help restore gut microbiome since the Lanzoprazole destroys them. The dietitian recommended this too, as did my surgeon. I already eat lots of live yoghurt with no problems. However I’ve been getting a lot of wind and diarrhoea since I started

Ct scan with contrast
Just had a ct scan with contrast. It sent my heart into a really erratic state for 1/2 hrs afterwards . Should I take my thyroid s as normal or wait 24 hrs for the stuff to clear out of my system? Any help please.

radiation treatments led to perforated colon?
St. Patrick’s Day I collapsed in pain and was rushed to ER. A CT ABD PE revealed a perforated colon near my rectum, broad internal infection (sepsis) with kidneys and liver shutting down. A life flight, three surgeries later, 3 weeks sedated and immobile in an ICU, and seven weeks in hospital rehabs

Enemas
Wow 😯. That’s a title eh?! Straight to your imagination I reckon. DON’T read this post whilst having your dinner. I went to the gym this afternoon. I had very little energy and had a strong sense that my meds hadn’t really hit the spot? I reflected on this and observed that I hadn’t had a bowel movement
