Struggling with disimpaction regime
Hello, really hoping someone has some advice as I’m at the end of my tether! My son is 5, he has struggled with constipation since he was 6 months old. He went onto Movicol (just x1 sachet a day) which was working fine to keep his stools soft and passable however when he began potty training at 3y/o

What can cause permanent tinnitus?
I have been suffering from tinnitus for nearly 2 months now due to using cotton buds and bobby pins, which damaged my ears and gave me tinnitus. The assault to my ears caused me to get an outer ear infection along with tinnitus. The ear infection has healed, but the tinnitus has not. The process of healing

Soiling Issue
After 2 years of chronic constipation I disimpacted my 6 year old last October which resulted in less soiling. My son was even getting the sensation of needing to go again maybe 3-4 times per week. We managed to wean him off Senna (started to give him tummy cramps) and have stayed on a maintenance dose

Never give up .
Hi all I just want to say what a brilliant site this is and seeing all the different posts with information and experiences people have had is really helpful. I had sort of given up hope of my vision returning in my left eye due to cornea damage after many procedures due to Glaucoma and Uveitis and

Should I apply sick day rules following a foot operation?
I had an operation yesterday to remove osteophyte ring from around my big toe. I’m home now and it’s very painful despite taking the codeine 30mg they prescribed. My PMR is no different and I’m on 6mg prednisolone but am I supposed to apply sick day rules or do I only do that if PMR gets worse?

weaning off Fentanyl patches
I am on 25mcg Fentanyl patches for pain caused by a compression fracture on my T10 vertebrae due to radiation treatment for metastatic prostate cancer. I have been on painkillers for about 12 months now, beginning with morphine etc which caused intense constipation. I began about 9 months ago on 12 mcg

Stress--patience--tapering going well...
I've been reading the forum almost daily but haven't posted, so I thought I'd update. After getting down to 1 mg after four years, in the fall of 2023, I had to go back to 60 mg...mostly other health issues and not really a typical GCA flare. Now, after just three months, I am at 4mg, along with my weekly

Help! Prostate cancer spread to bladder.
Diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer in 2017, confined to bones and lymph nodes. After chemotherapy, have had a great run on drugs, but a bladder neck incision last June confirmed that it had spread to my bladder, about 1cm poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma on the left side. The urologist seemed

QoL: Moonrise at a liminal place No. 2
I painted three versions of this mixed media work, being drawn repeatedly to the reference photograph. It is a place called Cwmtudu (pronounced Coom-ti-di to my American and, I imagine, most of my English friends here), and here we are looking down jnto the valley from a rocky outcrop on some clifftops

Advice on where to get blood tests done privately
Hi all, I hope you can help with my query. I've always had issues with T4 but after a good few years of a boost on dessicated thyroid (Erfa) the weight is piling on again. My private doctor has recommended I get the following tested but I'm struggling to find a company that can test my fasting glucose
