constipation
hi guys so I have been severely constipated for the past 2 years. I get severely bloated looking like I’m pregnant ! I also have trapped gas. I don’t feel the poop in my stomach. I feel it in my rectum. It is soft stools when it does come out but has no form and I can never empty myself completely and

Stomach upset after treatment
There have been many posts about heartburn and indigestion when taking Venetoclax and I have perused those. But I am UMRD- after O+V and last week suddenly started to have acid indigestion and heartburn. In the morning I have a constant need to clear my throat as well. I have been taking Tums and

Weight loss due to Progynova?
I feel like it never rains but pours atm! I discovered today I have lost 1.5kg in the last month. Obviously will be making an appt with the doctor tomorrow. Weight loss is listed as a side effect of Progynova but just wondering how often it happens and to what degree; gain seems more common. Has anyone

I’m constantly ‘burping’ and feel quite sick a lot of

Cholestyramine
My husband has had explosive diarrhea since mid February. After blood tests, stool samples, colonoscopy, and more stool samples, they are not able to determine what is causing the diarrhea. The doctor has prescribed Cholestyramine. Has anyone had experience with this medication and did it help?

contact urticaria
hi, does anybody have any experience of contact urticaria or any effective treatment? I have PV and my symptoms are skin itchiness after shower but also when the skin is rubbed (contact urticaria ). Moisturiser tends to irritate it, and I have tried different antihistamines and they don’t seem to work

depression, anxiety and stress
I've had IBD for the past 4 years now, I was first diagnosed in 2019, at first I didn't think much of it but as I got older my symptoms seemed to get worse. I was never the "depressed stress or anxious" person but as life continued with this disease it has taken a huge toll on me. I really don't know

Stronger sense of taste on Urso
Has anyone here noticed a stronger sense of taste whilst taking Urso? Specifically sweet and salty tastes seem much stronger since I have been taking them.

Thyroid and Folate deficiency
I've been on Levothyroxine for many years (100mg). After contracting Covid last year and being unable to match previous physical performances, I was diagnosed with a folate deficiency. I was told this was common post Covid, was prescribed folic acid tablets and saw an immediate improvement. I was told

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

Should PPIs be stopped when stomach bugs get a grip?
Since increasing omeprazole by 10mg ( 30mg ttl ) have had mild diarrhoea the odd day or two, but now had explosive squits for 7 days. Stopped omeprazole about 5 days ago, not even getting acid reflux now, but also no appetite and whatever I eat turns to water and is expelled about 4 hours later. It's

weird mouth symptoms on Sulfasalazine
Has anyone experienced anything like the following? I’ve been on Sulf for 7 weeks, max dose from 4 weeks. In the last 3 days I’ve had a sore tongue which has now settled but I’ve completely lost my sense of taste. I’ve tested and am negative for covid. I can’t think what else it could be!

recurrence of diverticulitis after surgery?
Has anyone had a recurrence of diverticulitis after bowel resection. I feel like I’m having a diverticulitis attack but I can’t get into see my GP because it’s so difficult to get into see them at the moment. I’m very dismay because my operation was quite complex. Any answers very gratefully received
