Desperate & fearful.
hi all I have quite a few health problems which would take to long to go into. But recently as well as IBS I’ve been diagnosed with Diverticulosis,now this is all new to me and I just don’t know how to handle it. Because I suffer with chronic stomach pain,I can’t tell when it becomes Diverticulitis

Laxatives for constipation
What do you use? The gp has just changed me from laxido to fybogel mebeverine. I've taken half a sachet and the pain is horrendous. It is causing awful cramps. I'm not sure what to do as I can't carry on with the constipation. I tried upping the fibre and that did the same and aggrevated the symptoms

strategies
hi everyone. I’m new to this forum. I’m wondering if anyone has some coping strategies for tinnitus? Since COVID I’ve had it severe and it’s taken over my life I’ve seen an audiologist who has given me hearing aids to mask abit of it. It does help a tiny bit but all depends on how loud it is at

Movicol help (again!)
I have taken a sachet of Movicol every night for the past 7 years after a rectocele repair and hysterectomy. On top of the IBS I've suffered from for 30 years, the need to take Movicol is the bane of my life because it exacerbates the IBS symptoms. I've recently had to increase the Movicol to 1.5 sachets

Best natural anti anxiety remedy
Hi, I was wondering what natural treatments people are taking to help with the anxiety that a lot of us with T have to deal with every day ? Does 5-htp work ? How about St Johns wort and L Theanine ? Which seems to work best for you ?

Is this level of pain normal for 'just' constipation
Hi everyone As a group of parents with constipation experience, I would love to get your thoughts on the level and type of pain your children have experienced due to constipation. We have been through a long journey of investigation of my daughter's abdominal pain, and although found to have 'hidden

Macular Degeneration and PMR
Hi, Several months ago, my mum was diagnosed with PMR and has been taking Prednisolone (initially 15 mg, now 10 mg after a taper). Unfortunately, her vision is deteriorating rapidly, and she has only partial sight in one eye. She has dry macular degeneration and likely glaucoma too. I want to do everything

Has anyone experienced a trabeculectomy in their only sighted eye? I lost sight in my right eye in 1998 due to a brain haemorrhage. The left eye is a lazy eye but I have 20/20 vision with variafocals. I'm concerned if I take the recommended op I might end up with no sight if there are complications?

high Bilirubin - worried
recently been going to the dr regarding stomach pain and change in bowel movements so they ran some blood tests which shown elevated Bilirubin level which came back as 38. I was then sent for another test 2 weeks later and the results came back the same. So now the dr wants me to have a full liver panel

Finally makes sense
I started Firmagon about a year ago with great results for 5 months and then added Xtandi....Side effects from both were minimal due to weight training in gym 3x a week and aerobic running off days. I began researching the relatively newly FDA approved Orgovyx and it made sense to me to ask my MO to

androgen receptor inhibitor for nmCRPC
So if you become castration resistant. Your PCa will grow without androgen. Your MO will recommend an androgen receptor inhibitor. Why bother inhibiting PCa androgen receptors if it can survive without androgen?? Confused.

As most of you can relate to, I have given up so much in my life due to RLS. Every possible RLS trigger is in fact a trigger for me. I have given up HRT, SSRIs, statins, caffeine, alcohol, spicy foods (I used to put fresh jalapeno peppers on EVERYTHING), sugar, all processed foods, most carbs, and the

Follow Up
Hi guys, I know you will remember the farce that was my treatment - so no no need to do 10 A4 worth of words. Just say last year I never got a follow up - until almost a year later. This time I had my BCG treatment for BC and a week Wednesday I have a Cystoscopy to see if the treatment has worked

Diarrhoea saga continued
I've had diarrhoea on and off for over a year. It started after breakfast and stopped around lunch time, not every day, but about 3 days a week. It's been slowly getting more frequent. A month or so ago I spoke to the GP who first diagnosed me with PMR/GCA. She tested me for coeliac and cancer, both
