Mother of 12 year old son who is soiling regularly
Hi there,we have been battling this for a year now,the first sign I knew there was a problem was when my son started to soil and then his bowel movements were so big he would block the toilet!!!he then told me he was only opening his bowels once a week.I think it has happened from starting secondary

8 Year-old Can't Get Bottom Clean
Hello, I'm new. I don't know if anyone can help with this one - I've been looking at posts and can't see anything on this. My son (just turned 8) is having real difficulty in getting his bottom clean after a poo. It started in January - he was getting very upset at school and telling us he was afraid

2 1/2 year old constipation help!
Hello, Mu daughter has suffered from constipation for over a year now. I think the problem started when she had trouble with a difficult poo that hurt her. She would hold it in for anything up to 9 days. The Gp prescribed movicol initially at a high dose that we then dropped down (think it was 6 per

Taking child off long term senna
Hi, my 9 boy had non-withholding constipation and has been on 17.5ml of Senna for the past 5 years. (As an aside I've just seen other posts and I wish someone had told me at the beginning of this journey to relax because its takes years and years for the bowels to mend. Find a dose that works and stop

Daughter's results
Hi, I'm new here and after some opinions. My daughter is 15 and has been suffering with chronic heartburn/ indigestion for which she is seeing a consultant, at her first appointment he did her TSH as she also has irregular periods. Her results were 4.89 top of the range being 4.2 so he said he'd repeat

Movicol problems
Hi, I'd really appreciate any advice as finding things really stressful. My daughter is 4 1/2 and having problems with soiling. Started last summer and saw specialist after a few months who prescribed picolax and senna to disimpact in December. This seemed to work and she had almost no soiling for 2

Ongoing Witholding issues and tummy bugs
Hi, My daughter is five and a half, has had poo withholding issues since potty training at two and a half. After a lot of battles with Health visitors and the GP, she was eventually referred to the hospital where the paediatric consultant started her on a disimpaction regime. To cut a long story short

Update on VSL#3 after three weeks - warning, toilet talk!
Just wanted to give an update on how I've been feeling on this probiotic product. I got a 30 day amount of sachets and take one sachet a day as I was hoping it might address some bowel issues I've been having as well as digestion problems. I will admit this will have a lot of discussions of inner digestive

Two weeks on
So I have been taking the trametinib for two weeks now and I thought I would post a little update. The first couple of days I felt really sick shortly after taking it. I have to take it at the same time every day on an empty stomach with a full glass of water. The sickness has settled down but I have

What questions should I ask?
My husband is 64 and an alcoholic who was diagnosed last year with cirrhosis. We have been living apart for over a year now but I still do what I can to support him. My husband now lives in Scotland whilst I am in London. During the 12 months we have been apart he has been in and out of hospital several

Movicol
Just a quick note for anyone just starting with the delights of movicol. Docusate didn't do anything for me to 'get things moving more quickly' in the battle with sluggish food transit but Movicol has. Unfortunately as someone who has had the delight of a pre op bowel cleanse (such a polite description

Just been told to stop my topiramate after managing to get to 75mg after a hospital admission as I may have RAYNAUDS?!
What do I do ?! Do I annoy my neurologist by stopping my topiramate? (It has done nothing for me by the way as nelly the elephant is still sat on my head - pressure) and my eye sight is still blurry.. but if I stop the medication it's like I've failed myself ! I am currently on 75mg and needed to get

Prescribed Docusate Sodium...thanks for all your advice
After hitting rock bottom this week with post-surgery pain, low mood & debilitating constipation, a chat with the Doc at today's chemo session & I have these babies. Finally I might be able to sort out my bowel movements once & for all. It has become my priority (well for now anyway...) Thank you for

Long term Zoladex use
Hello folks, I was diagnosed at 21 with endo and went through all the usual treatments such as being on the pill without a break, coil, etc etc. None of them helped and the situation just got worse and worse and the GP just wasn't listening. I started having problems with chronic constipation and after

Chronic Constipation.
I have ms and suffer from chronic fatigue and constipation. Apartfrom this I am quite active and healthy. I take Laxido and Senna twice daily to help. I am seeing a dietician who suggests Fodmap. I will try this, as nothing else helps. Any suggestions gratefully received.

Distasteful taste after eating sweet things
I have been taking 25gc levothyroxine at 5 am and Omaprazole now before lunch, it recently when I eat anything sweet I get a horrid taste I. My mouth..as this seems to ha e happened fairly recently I now wonder if it's these two tablets interacting... I think the Levi needs an acid stomach and the Omaprazole
