B12 deficiency and gastrointestinal (GI) upset
Many people with B12 deficiency mention gastrointestinal (GI) upset. I came across a brief article that discusses some aspects of this relationship. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/34454714/ The article introduction includes the following statement: "To date, clinical guidance for best practices related

I have suffered with severe RLS for over 30 years. At first with no sign of treatment I used strong pain meds which I regularly took too much of just trying to calm my legs down enough to sleep, that didn’t work. In 2005 I saw a right up in a Sunday news paper about a treatment called adartrel, this

prucalopride - Tips
Hi Have been suffering with chronic constipation for that last 2 years, plus pain in the pelvic floor area & rectum. Mixture of pressure & burning pain. My NHS Gastro & physio appointments are currently 3/4mths apart so if I make any kind of improvement it is diminished by the time I get back to them

Hearing Aids?
Hi, My mum had brain surgery back in 1991 for a schwannoma/acoustic neuroma. Her hearing was affected but as she's got older her hearing in that ear has significantly deteriorated. Mum is sure that she cannot have a hearing aid due to the surgery but I'm wondering if technology has advanced and if

Worried about taking Provera for late period
At the start of the year I was diagnosed with PCOS. I have very long cycles as a result. This cycle I'm on has been really long and I've been getting pms symptoms for a while because of the length of the cycle. I'm going on holiday in less than a week and would like to have a period before I go, to

Hope this helps!
Hi everyone, I do not have CLL but I do have the itchy, pins and needles prickly feeling on my upper arms at night when I cover up. Once it starts it's relentless. I spoke to my Dermatologist about it and she said it sounded like a nerve problem. She prescribed me Fluocinonide cream 0.05 percent. I rub

Do I declare Esophageal varices (no longer found) on travel insurance?
Hi All, I've booked a holiday for April next year and I'm looking for a bit of advice regarding my travel insurance. Due to having a blood clot in my portal vein because of my MPN I was diagnosed with having Esophageal varices (bloated blood vessels). However, I recently had an endoscopic examination

Physical (not behavioural) causes for constipation?
I honestly thought constipation and soiling was in our past but sadly it’s become an issue again for my 7 year old. 😕 My daughter’s movicol dose has rapidly doubled, we’re back to toilet sits after breakfast and dinner yet she’s started to soil again, and we just seem to be swinging between big piles

Krebs Cycle
Has anyone’s heard of the Krebs Cycle, also known as the Citric Acid Cycle? It’s a series of biochemical reactions that happen in the mitochondria and is critical for the formation of energy. Krebs has a book called “The Principles and Applications of Ozone Therapy”. The cycle converts NADH to NAD

Colonoscopy
I had a very stressful colonoscopy last Thursday. Stressful in itself but rendered more so by the Practice Nurse who fasttracked me, saying, ‘Good luck, I hope I’m wrong.’ I defy anyone to not think the worst after that! Anyway, the scope was clear of cancer, or polyps but confirmed what I already knew

Bowel inflammation - any link to PMR/GCA?
I have had problems with diarrhoea for several years now. I have had bad reactions in the past to sertraline (antidepressant) and amoxillin, with constant diarrhoea for several months. However my calprotectin levels (measuring gut inflammation) were normal. Since diagnosis I have been getting frequent

Prostate Cancer and Statins
My overall cholesterol has recently increased (9.2 mmol/L), although my HDL remains high at 2.88 mmol/L. The jury seems to be out on whether high HDL levels are of benefit in combatting high LDL levels. My GP wants me to go on statins. I had hoped to continue trying to mitigate the high overall and LDL

Tinnitus and hearing loss in one ear - not sure what to do next
Hi, Looking for a bit more information on my own case of tinnitus and hearing loss - and to see if anyone has had any similar experiences. I'm 37 btw - so unlikely to be related to age. Basically this is what's happened below: April 2023 - ear wax blockage in both ears - so used olive oil drops (as

Movicol
Hi everyone I've recently been prescribed this medication due to severe constipation as a side effect of chemotherapy and all the associated drugs that go with it. I already suffer with chronic constipation so I take prucalopride , which now isn't effective alone 😔 my question is how many sachets do

positive occult blood test but no parasites ?
I'm a mid-sixties female with R.A. Constipated until a year ago. Oftentimes in the last year (but not always) my poop looked well-formed but had something that looked like a string coming out the end, up to an inch long. My bowel habits changed a lot a few months ago/much less constipated. A couple
