Physical (not behavioural) causes for constipation?
I honestly thought constipation and soiling was in our past but sadly it’s become an issue again for my 7 year old. 😕 My daughter’s movicol dose has rapidly doubled, we’re back to toilet sits after breakfast and dinner yet she’s started to soil again, and we just seem to be swinging between big piles

Reflux and Omeprazole
After being in recession from PMR/GCA for 7 months but still battling with Acid reflux, with the local surgery only interested in upping or lowering my Omeprazole depending on whether I had a sore throat or not and not interested in trying anything else. I also following Dr Jonathan Aviv's Acid

Colonoscopy
I had a very stressful colonoscopy last Thursday. Stressful in itself but rendered more so by the Practice Nurse who fasttracked me, saying, ‘Good luck, I hope I’m wrong.’ I defy anyone to not think the worst after that! Anyway, the scope was clear of cancer, or polyps but confirmed what I already knew

Bowel inflammation - any link to PMR/GCA?
I have had problems with diarrhoea for several years now. I have had bad reactions in the past to sertraline (antidepressant) and amoxillin, with constant diarrhoea for several months. However my calprotectin levels (measuring gut inflammation) were normal. Since diagnosis I have been getting frequent

Upcoming Birth with Tinnitus
So I've suffered with Tinnitus (Pulsatile) since 2019. Although never formally diagnosed all specialists I have spoken with have pointed towards this.

Unaware of own self
My pop, in a resthome, now seems very unaware of his own self. Biggest indicator is when he is put on the toilet seat by resthome staff which is a big event in itself. Once hes on, he is not aware and is still 'holding it in' so to speak. If we are there visiting, he will say something like "am

Movicol
Hi everyone I've recently been prescribed this medication due to severe constipation as a side effect of chemotherapy and all the associated drugs that go with it. I already suffer with chronic constipation so I take prucalopride , which now isn't effective alone 😔 my question is how many sachets do

positive occult blood test but no parasites ?
I'm a mid-sixties female with R.A. Constipated until a year ago. Oftentimes in the last year (but not always) my poop looked well-formed but had something that looked like a string coming out the end, up to an inch long. My bowel habits changed a lot a few months ago/much less constipated. A couple

Swollen painful hand
I've had PMR for 2 years. Was started on 40 mg of prednisone. I have slowly gotten down to 13 mg. Recently I tapered to 12 mg but have not felt very well & suddenly my right hand fingers are swollen & very painful. This has never happened before. Is this some kind of flare?

cataracts, glaucoma and astigmatism
I was diagnosed with glaucoma last year and had laser surgery which didn’t work. I now have cataracts which are causing me blurred vision. On my last visit to the glaucoma hospital the ophthalmologist said “you have cataracts” but he didn’t say anything else about it or whether I needed to get them done

Where does the blood come from?
Hi, I have endometriosis and with it I get bowel symptoms. The most prevalent is pain but I also get cyclical rectal bleeding. I had a colonoscopy and it was all clear they took some biopsies but results i probably wont get this year. I know this is common with endometriosis, but where does the blood

Complementary therapies?
I have just come to the end of the chemo radiation and seemingly I now wait about three months before having a PET scan and a fibroscopy to see how effective the treatment has been and what might be the next steps. Just for my own sense of well being I am thinking about trying some complementary therapies
