Cystitis post endometriosis surgery
Hi, I had stage 3 endometriosis surgery just over 4 months ago. Endo was removed from bowel, bladder, ovaries etc. Prior to my surgery I used to get cystitis only after intercourse which would go away after a course of antibiotics. However, since my surgery I keep on getting cystitis(mostly constantly

MAJOR CANCER CURE! (yeah, I know it's not PD)
Somehow (and i watch, listen, and skim DOZENS of health videos weekly) i missed this one from a YEAR ago! Even though it is a miracle treatment for "cancer" and not "PD" -- the point is that SCIENCE is working VERY HARD to cure, stop, prevent, slow down ... PD! SO DON'T GIVE UP! ------------------

Is there necessarily any necessity for Omeprazole?
Hello, I switched from Lansoprazole to Omeprazole because the Lansoprazole was causing diarrhoea. Now I have stopped taking the Omeprazole because that too became a bit disruptive of my bowel movements, though in a different way. The absence of the Omeprazole seems to have had no adverse effect. I

UTI issues
Hi all, Is it quite common to see blood in the urine with a UTI? My doctor says so but Googling has me believe it’s a kidney infection and I’m on the wrong antibiotics. I’ve had a UTI in the past and had the burning and pain but no visible blood? Thanks

Nearly 14 years on - time has flown.
On Friday 16th April 2010 I joined the Pernicious Anaemia Society and posted the following: “I was diagnosed with PA back in 1972 consequent upon having had surgery for a peptic ulcer in April 1959 at the tender age of 17. In those days I was not many years from having to be put on a diet of raw liver

Hyperhomocysteinemia or lack of vitamin 12
has anyone suffered from inability to absorb vitamin B12 due to either the Lupus or Methotrexate injections? I’m really struggling with pins and needs and total exhaustion and I’m wondering if this is my problem. It’s impossible getting to speak to dr or rheumy or nurse so could do with advice please

Warm sensation in anus
After some bowel movements I'll feel a warm sensation afterwards in the anus. No diarrhea, no straining, no hemorrhoids, no bleeding. Just a warmth in the anus and feels like it isn't relaxing perhaps Anyone else have this? What causes it?

How effective is fenofibrate for itch?
My doctor suggested a few different drugs, like rifampricin, naltrexone, and fenofibrate for my itch. He prescribed fenofibrate as he thinks it works best. Does anyone here take it and if so, has it helped? I'm worried about the warnings it comes with about severe liver damage.

Weight, bloating, and itchy arms
After a long, tortuous fight to get diagnosed and treated with/for hypothyroidism, which was achieved almost entirely with the help and info from this forum, I think that my meds are now very close to perfect and my blood test results are continuing to improve. So thank you again to everyone. But I

PiP - Aids being 'prescribed'
This appears to be coming up a few times from reading previous posts regarding PiP claims. People who have bought their own aids to facilitate an easier existence are being told they cannot count as proof of either disability/change in disability, because they have not been 'prescribed' by the GP. Yet

Tirosint
I am unable to take tablet form levothyroxine, I have a gene issue with metabolising some medications. I have started liquid thyroxine but I think the ingredients are affecting my stomach and I have been told to stop taking this to see if it is the cause. I see that Tirosint is quite pure but not sure

Ah...I am breathing easier
This is for everyone (though it is old news for most) but I haven't ordered Pan Pharma hydroxy for a year...in fact I believe I got the end of the lot and when it finally came it had a very short expiration. It also took 6 nail-biting weeks to get here. I was worried but have noticed the trend of it

Cataract removal
I had a cataract removed on Friday last and make the stupid mistake of putting the wrong post op drops in my eye. I had to ring the emergency services and between them and my daughter I managed to get to the emergency room. They sluiced my eye out after administering antiseptic and rang the consultant
