soft, sticky stool which is hard to pass - any advice?
I feel embarrassed describing my poop but am at the end of my rope with my gut issues. I’ve had IBS for 25 years but the last 5 years have been non-stop, daily issues. Over the last 4 years I have had endless tests. A colonoscopy and gastroscope in 2019 which was clear, a clear ct scan later that year

Stopped taking Linaclotide (Constella/Linzess) for chronic (idiopathic) constipation, a new medicine for me to try.
So I finally had my consult ('second opinion') in Leuven (Belgium) at the gastroenterology unit of the university hospital, after I did see a specialist at the gastroenterology unit of the university hospital in Groningen (The Netherlands) beginning this year. The specialist I spoke with also doesn't

Buserelin rash
hi all, hope everyone is ok. QQ, I have started round 3 and am taking Buserelin for the first time - I have a pretty large rash on my stomach which hasn’t gone down and it’s been 4 hours since I injected, infact the rash is now worse. I always had a small rash with other drugs which usually went

Endoscope..functional dyspepsia and Prilosec
Finally had endoscope which shows not much of anything that one takes Prilosec for....been taking for well over a year....I think it is actually causing my stomach issues. Anyone else had this experience? Will be meeting with GI and want to get off of this. Looking for input from those with similar experience

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

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
