Made to feel ashamed
I'm sorry if this is insignificant but I have just had a 'health review ' at my local doctors and made to feel ashamed and embarrassed and absolutely awful about myself.I have liver cirrhosis, I was ill November 2022 and had numerous scans and it was confirmed by a fibro scan. It scared the hell out

Grumpy Old Lady in Pain - am I being too cynical?
I had an unpleasant experience at my very recently previous practice. I’ve been back in the UK for five years and only used the practice a handful of times. I had emergency surgery recently and have just had a crash course in how the NHS operates.! Am I being too cynical? and have I got most of the

lowering prednisolone
I have had pmg since last September and have very gradually lowered my dose from 15mg to 1mg. which I have been on for the last six weeks. I decided to try to go without steroids for the last two days and apart from the usual shoulder ach when getting up, so far so good, I am now worried about getting

Propanolol Tolerance
I have mixed tremor (PD plus ET). For my tremor, I find that CD/LD plus propanolol works really well to manage my tremor symptoms. At least that was true until last week when I suddenly stopped getting any effect from the propanolol. No reduction in tremor and no lowering of BP as I have come to expect

CATCH-up-CORNER. NOVEMBER Week 1... Come on in and rest awhile...
November's a time made for fresh air and fun. For kicking up leaves, as we head out and run.. For dodging the raindrops and beating the cold For showing the wind that we're brave and we're bold. **** November's a time for a bit more warm gear To stay warm and dry, that's perfectly clear. For

When to take Carvedilol?
Hi there, I haven't posted anything for here for a while - but do read other's stories and experiences which is often very helpful - so thank you! I am now taking 12.5mg of carvedilol per day - taking one in the morning and one at night before going to bed - I often feel the morning dose leaves me

is anyone else’s toddler like mine?
I feel alone and like my son is different to others, and I don’t know how to deal with it as everyone else’s child is outgoing and doesn’t act like he does. My three and a half year old is extremely stubborn and does not like trying new things, and is very shy around new people. I have spoken to

Bisacodyl
Taken Senna, Fybogel and Laxido and haven’t had any bowel movements. I’ve seen people say to take Bisacodyl as this is quite strong. What are people’s experiences with this? Does it work? When is the best time to take it?

Fibrosis?
Hi there. Continuing my journey to recovery, I was today told by my doctor that I need to have a blood test to see if I have any scarring of the liver. My LFT’s are better than they were in June last year. An ultrasound in August 23 noticed a fatty liver. So, can you still get scarring of the liver

Help with steroid induced hyperglycaemia
My story is in my bio as it’s rather long! Is there anyone out there managing Steroid Induced Hyperglycaemia? As I started on 70mg and had to stay on it for 6 weeks after diagnosis, I quickly developed SIH and have found it a daily battle to control it despite being on a very low Carb diet indeed! Diabetic

Lines not progressing- any success stories 🙏
I had spotting on days 6 and 8 post 5dt at the same time as a vomiting stomach bug 😢. The spotting stopped on day 8 in the afternoon and when I tested to confirm I was out, it surprised me with a BFP! But, then since then the line has not got darker. This happened to me last cycle and the pregnancy

Apomorphine
Has anyone here, particularly with drug resistant tremor, been put on apomorphine? It sounds like a nightmare; a drug that has no relation to morphine, that's meant for dogs, makes you incredibly nauseous and sick, needs to be administered via a pump or injection and would be given during off periods

Antihistamines and NAFLD
Hi! I was recently diagnosed with non alcoholic liver disease a few months ago. I’ve been suffering really badly with my hay fever this year. I’m currently on 120mg Fexofenadine, I have been for several years, and Dymista nasal spray. I was just wondering what antihistamines others with liver disease

In 19 days its a year later....
In 19 days time it will be a year ago my accident happened. I still ask myself what's wrong with me but I know what happened, I know what I have came through and I know the person I am today. I have made, in my opinion, a decent recovery but still working on it. I am a different person for my family

Contrast ultrasound for liver hemangioma?
Hi me again. I had a normal ultrasound which detected a possible liver hemangioma. The hospital are sending me for a contrast ultrasound to confirm. Online it looks like an MRI is the usual way to confirm this. Is a contrast dye ultrasound as effective? Thanks.

advice on bisoporol
Does anyone else get memory problems from bisoporol, I was fine on it but this past 4/5 months I’m having really bad memory problems and bouts of tearfulness and it’s very upsetting. Is there and alternative beta blocker that does not affect memory or would calcium channel blockers be better and what
