Travellers Diarrhea
Has anyone ever been abroad before and came back with diarrhea? I actually managed to get through 12 hour flights and 3 weeks in Brazil with only a couple of bad episodes .. thanks to Imodium helping me through. The day we were due to fly my stomach was so bad which was not unusual for me with anxiety

chronic diarrhoea 4 days.
I honestly feel like just stopping the prednisolone. It’s one thing after another. Nothing is staying in my stomach and I feel so weak. Any advice appreciated. Do I take Imodium? 🙏

Will lower dose of Nintedanib stop the terrible side effects?
After a long wait, a bronchoscopy and endless CT scans and lung function tests, I finally started on the standard dose of 2 x 150 mg Nintedanib at the end of February. The first few weeks weren’t too bad, my gut was unhappy and I experienced the expected diarrhoea. Took Imodium as advised. But then

Why do we have mutations?
Why do we all have these bone marrow mutations? It cannot all be due to family DNA bad luck. My haemo told me that he is certain that my mutation is due to exposure to Benzene in petroleum products. In effect I have been poisoned by products which were supposed to be safe. Benzene compounds are still

Should PPIs be stopped when stomach bugs get a grip?
Since increasing omeprazole by 10mg ( 30mg ttl ) have had mild diarrhoea the odd day or two, but now had explosive squits for 7 days. Stopped omeprazole about 5 days ago, not even getting acid reflux now, but also no appetite and whatever I eat turns to water and is expelled about 4 hours later. It's

Radium 223 Xofigo Treatment
I have considerable pain in my hips and tale bone 3 days after first injection of Xofigo. The Radiologists mentioned I could get pain flare a few days after the injection. Is there anyone familiar with Radium 223 side effects.

8 year old constipated for 5 weeks
Hello everyone, I'm hoping you can all offer some advise etc...My 8 year old boy has been suffering with constipation for several years and I would give him lactulose to help him when he was backed up and he would pass a stool once a week. Lately it is getting harder to unblock him, the last time he

Low sodium diet
Hi everyone!I am here, on this forum for my husband's CKD/proteinuria (all unexplained- kidney biopsy was "normal" as well as his genetic test). Anyway, his Nephrologist put him on low sodium November 30th. I went on it with him and haven't had a migraine since! So for those of you who are supporting

Post exertion fatigue
I'm like a zombie today - over the past 2 days, I did quite a bit of heavy gardening as the weather was so good. I had muscle aches and felt a bit wiped out at the end of the day yesterday so took a long Epsom salts bath, and today, wham! it's like a truck has hit me, but with extra brain fog added.

Thyroid Panel Questions
Hi! I have been perusing the posts here, you seem to be a knowledgable group, I am hoping you might be able to help shed some light on what my hormones and endocrine system is UP to! I don't want to overwhelm with too much history, so I will try and cut to the chase. For a number of years I took a T3

Confusion
At the moment I am taking Pregabalin, magnesium and ferrous sulphate. I know that some time needs to be left between these things but am confused as to how long. I take the Pregabalin around 8 o/clock. Should I be taking the ferrous sulphate in the morning as I think that's what the doctor said

Thyroid or Pituitary Problem?
Sorry in advance for the long essay! Desperatly hoping for some advice. I am a 30-year-old female suffering fatigue, brain fog & migraine with visual disturbances since July 2020, therefore I stopped the COCP after a 10-year use (which was prescribed for the management of menorrhagia). Since stopping

MCT Oil
in another thread someone posted today about MCT oil. I hadn’t heard of this and have tried to research it. It seems to be useful in a variety of situations and claims include support in weight gain, increased energy, constipation t and pain relief. Really it sounds a bit of a ‘cure all’. I’m wondering
