A very nice chap at one of the call centres (always cheers me up if I'm switched through to Preston, they seem to have some particularly helpful...
Me neither until it developed into actual incontinence, at which point they had to rule out bowel cancer. They seemed to regard really disruptive...
That was the doctor's diagnosis, both before and after the intolerances were discovered, so yes—for better or worse, it's the term I use. People...
For some people there are causes, it's just difficult to work them out. My IBS started almost overnight, but it turned out it was driven by losing...
You could if you had the right system, but I suppose the problem is that no one's sure what that is. PEG tubes seem a good option for people...

But did you need a physio to supervise it? Or would the effort of needing to attend an appointment consume all your spare energy (plus some you...
I think one of the differences might be sleep. I haven't many memories of this because I got ill in my teens, but I do remember a couple of...
