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

Bowel changes and pain. Positive faecal calprotectin, negative CT
Hello!

Mebeverine
Has anyone else found that their symptoms of IBS increase after taking mebervive. I was prescribed it, and when I have taken it my stomach flares up, I get major bloating and really sharp stomach pains? Has anyone else had this or is it just me?

IBS struggle
Hi. I've been struggling with IBS for a few years now. I am also allergic to dairy products. I try and have a healthy diet but it is very difficult. I eat low FODMAP dinners most days and have low FODMAP lunches when I'm at work. I take biomel powder in my banana and peanut butter smoothie twice a day

High calprotectin
hi everyone, I’m going for a colonoscopy/endoscopy next week and I’m feeling really worried for the procedure and results. I’ve had coeliac disease for 10 years, but recently have been experiencing a lot of acid reflux and mucus in my stool. My calprotectin was 295, which I understand is quite high.

cisplatin
Hi, I was on Carboplatin, Avastin and Zem, but I got an allergic reaction from Carboplatin. My oncologist told me he will replace Carboplatin with Cisplarin for my 5 session. I am wondering if someone has been on Cisplatin and what’s yours experience with Cisplatin?

Does endoscopy replace colonoscopy?
Hello beautiful PA fam, I wanted to know if any of you guys with PA also have gastritis from it and therefore have to get upper endoscopy and colonoscopy periodically. The reason I'm asking, my doctor did a upper endoscopy on me and told me I didn't need a colonoscopy for the next 10 years and it

barium swallow
hello I had an endoscopy done today as I have near enough constant nausea it’s been going on for 5 months and I’m also suffering from constipation. Nothing was found today anyway and have been told it would be good to get a barium swallow. I’m just extremely worried about side effects I have very bad

Rejected by NHS again
Hi everyone. After being diagnosed with gastritis (cause unknown) in December I took the advice of the gastroenterologist and started Omeprazole treatment. I’ve been having stomach issues for at least 7 years. After four months of treatment I was experiencing breakthrough symptoms so decided to taper

Do PPIs affect absorption of thyroid meds?
Hi, quick question - I've got acute gastritis at the moment. I'm taking 15mg lansoprazole. I also take Armour. I'm worried the lansoprazole is going to affect how my Armour is absorbed. Has anyone had this problem? GP told me to take them at different times of day, but I hardly think that will help

Headed for PTN? Mysterious high volume bulky stools daily following infectious colitis
Rather worried. A bit of a long story. Part 2 was some infectious agent that caused. 39.7 degrees fever followed by severe diarrhea. CT scan found it caused proctocolitis. Now it gets strange (?) Immediately following diarrhea cessation was abnormal bulky high volume stools. A few times a day for first
