    Some good resources for gut health?

    How to do fecal transplants at home. The author of the guide suffered from ulcerative colitis and claims to have cured himself with a fecal transplant. I should mention that I haven't tested this personally! http://fecaltransplant.org/how-to-diy-fecal-transplants-at-home/

    Thyroid, autoimmune thyroiditis, Hashimoto's

    There are several kinds of antibodies affecting the thyroid. In people with hypothyroidism (or who are heading for that condition), my understanding is that any of the following can be true : Both TPO antibodies + Tg antibodies can be negative. TPO antibodies can be positive and Tg antibodies...

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    @Liv aka Mrs Sowester :hug::hug::hug: My husband and I decided not to even attempt to adopt. The idea of having total strangers poking around our lives and judging us to decide if we could adopt a child just made both of us shudder. And we were also aware of some failed adoptions where the...

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    Five. I was utterly exhausted, demoralised and more depressed than I had ever been by the time I stopped. IVF completely dominated my life for about five years. I got pregnant three times and lost all three, so I'm childless. I was told by the IVF clinic that success rates for people with...

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    I forgot to say... I was given counselling while I was going through IVF. It helped at the time, but the effects didn't really last beyond the time the counselling was going on.

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    I've been through IVF, and I remember the horrors of egg collection while still being aware of what was happening and also being aware of the pain. When I still had an ovary I developed chocolate cysts galore as well as lots of functional cysts. Each time I did IVF the cysts got in the way and...

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    @Liv aka Mrs Sowester I can sympathise and empathise. My post about the ovarian torsion and its after-effects is only a tiny part of my gynaecological horror story - I've had rather a lot of surgeries. I have no reproductive organs left any more, and I find this extremely distressing. I...

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    @Jonathan Edwards Thank you for your reply. Sadly, it puts me back at square one, with no understanding of the causes and mechanism behind the pain I get, unless I go back to my previous theory of adhesions and scarring from surgery, post-operative infection, and endometriosis being the cause...

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    I find this subject very difficult, embarrassing and long-winded to discuss which is why I deleted the text of my earlier reply. I'll have another go, and try to summarise more. In my early teens I developed ovarian torsion. Very delayed diagnosis meant that the affected ovary became severely...

    Can bacterial infections last for several decades?

    Is it possible to get a bacterial infection as a young teenager and then never lose it during the next 40+ years? I'm not talking about Lyme, Candida or EBV, I'm talking about a group B streptococcus infection. I have no further medical details about the infection, other than the fact that it...

    BMJ best practise

    I thought that doctors were not obliged to follow NICE Guidelines or Clinical Knowledge Summaries for any medical condition, and so it was likely that most doctors wouldn't even read them. I also thought that these days the only guidelines they feel compelled to follow are the ones produced by...
