Is it still stress?
I had been going through a period of stress last year and found it very difficult to sleep – both getting to sleep and sleep quality – tossing and turning and staying asleep.

Bloating

I was very careful in what I ate and then slowly the bloating stopped and all was fine which was great! However, in recent...

Bladder problems
I have had bladder problems since before I even had my son; he is now 32! I keep getting palmed off, I have tried every medicine available, plus all the pelvic floor exercises. My appointment has now been put back until near the end of the year, which is even more annoying. I know that I am 63, but ...

Interstitial cystitis
I have interstitial cystitis (possibly as a result of Fibromyalgia). I have to omit many fruits, caffeine, coffee and probiotics from my diet as they all inflame it. Is there anything natural I can take to help with the symptoms or for the health of my bladder? I'm not keen on taking prescribed medi...

Stomas - fluid leaking
I have two stomas. A Urostomy and A high output one, officially a colostomy but I have 1.2 m of small bowel only. I have a clear liquid which constantly leaks from my vagina so I have to wear pads as well as having two bags. Any idea what this fluid is and where it comes from? (Bobbie)
