New to this group and hoping for thoughts
Hi, My local hospital are struggling and I am stuck in a round of catch 22 so hoping that there may be someone who can point me in a better direction! I have had asthma since childhood, generally only exacerbated by virus or allergies. 9 years ago everything went haywire and I ended up having very frequent

CKD SYMPTOMS
A year ago I was told my creatine level was showing signs of CKD was put on very restrictive diet low potassium sodium and phosphorous also reduced protein. Having heart palpitations and short breath. Is this a result of CKD.

Severe flare up - 9th day
Hi everyone, I hope someone can help I have recently been diagnosed with IBS-D and currently on the 9th day of a flare up. I had a rather spicy curry which has triggered this (though I’m usually fine with spicy food). I have severe diarrhoea and cramps. I have been sticking to low FODMAP foods and even

Thyroid ultra vit check results - I would be so grateful of any help or advice
I am really hoping that someone can help me and advise me as I am very unwell more than I am well-ish. I do understand that sufferers of Hashimotos will never feel as well as they used to, but my life is so dominated by symptoms that make leading a normal life impossible. I have had an all too common

What Should I Do??? So Upset!
I just found out that my eGFR is 59 (down from 61 three months ago) And I am in panic mode! Dr. isn't concerned...my blood protein, sodium, albumin are normal. My creatinine is upper limits of normal at.97 (normal up to 1.0) I have no symptoms. I also have borderline osteoporosis and was told by my doctor

Aloflorex - Does it work?
Hi guys. I wrote a post a few weeks ago about my ibs and how bad it gets when I’m stressed and how I have had a flare up since I moved house last year and now I have started a new job. Two of the most stressful things in life so I guess it’s no surprise my ibs has reared it’s ugly head. Anyway, someone

Hackney Half Event report.
It is the day after my HM. I usually write a report on how it went, this year is no different in some ways but in others ways there is a massive difference. It was my last HM for a couple of years. My physio and doctor have advised me to take a break from distances as my body needs to fully adjust

Gout and CKD

5 year old, no longer constipated, but is scared to poo and withholds it
Hello all. Our 5 year old son was constipated 10 days ago but we gave him movicol and suppositories and got all the backlog out. However, he is now refusing to let his soft poo come out. He is shouting from pain and is in a very bad mood and is unpleasant to be with (very different from his regular character

Why won't the NHS give me an iron infusion?
Had anybody managed to get an iron infusion on the NHS? My ferritin level is 6. The GP had requested an infusion from haematology. They have denied it saying that it is inherently dangerous and I just have to take tablets. Problem is, I've taken 200mg x 3 /day of ferrous sulphate previously for months

I might not be fine on T4 only after all
This is a post I did not expect to be writing, but I may be about to join the T3 crowd for good. This post is mostly descriptive, and is intended as an update, given my previous assertions that I am well on T4 alone. Latest blood test showed a drop in fT3 to 5.1 pmol/L (3.1 - 6.8). This is despite my

As you can see from the title what this post is about... I have a holiday booked at the end of July and another holiday mid September, both occasions I will need to fly. The last flight I went on the Imodium I took didn’t work and I found myself sat in the airport awaiting my delayed flight absolutely
