Postive ANA?
Hi, I recently had a postive ANA result (1:160 speckled) alongside elevated CRP. Few years ago had tests that my GP said were indicative of lupus (abnormal urine sample, elevated serum creatine and elevated lupus anti coag) he said if I felt okay to just leave it there… Since 2020 I have felt gradually

Left side gut pain above and left of the belly button with belching and gas
I have a scope done by a gi doctor 2 years ago. Result was mild gastritis and biopsy came back fine. I fought pain, bloating, and belching for almost a year straight every day. Gi dr had me do a breathe test and i failed it for bacteria. I took meds every other 2 weeks for 2 months. Everything finally

low stomach acid
I believe that I have low stomach acid. I can’t find old posts about this, but I know it’s quite common among hypothyroid people. So I’m wondering if anyone has had this, and found a cure for it. I’m currently taking Betain HCL with pepsin, and it’s helping. However, I’m hoping I don’t have to take

Overdue Update
Hello everyone. I am not sure when I last posted my health situation but think it was mentioning abdominal pains and querying whether Hydroxycarbamide could be affecting my colon. I’ll try and keep this short. From midJune I suffered constant symptoms like IBS(D) . I already had been diagnosed with Diverticulosis

Omeprazole/Lansoprazole on methotrexate
Hi,I'm on 20mg mtx and 200mg hydroxy. I've been having some difficulties swallowing tablets the last 6 months or so plus acid reflux/ dyspepsia discomfort at night so saw GP recently. I've had an endoscopy today and have got a telephone call with said GP on Tuesday, although I doubt he'll have any results
