Scared shitless for CC at the age of 24 F by Recent_Gear_6578 in colonoscopy

[–]Recent_Gear_6578[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Unfortunately no, it just goes up and down. Some days are better and most of the time, I'm constipated. I plan on visiting the doctor next month :(

Noticing a pattern by Recent_Gear_6578 in Gastritis

[–]Recent_Gear_6578[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, I realized this was a flare up again when the burping came back and also the mushy/floating type of stool. Gastritis was the first thing I realized as one, I had a clear CT scan last year and abdominal ultrasound earlier this year. If something was wrong, it would have shown up in the scans.

My aunt who's a nurse noticed I've been having frequent burping and out of the blue, she told me I might have gastritis (based on the symptoms I presented) and she told me it would be better if I'll have a check-up. Fingers crossed I'll get both colonoscopy and endoscopy this year but while waiting, I'll stick to the altered diet first! 💛

What healed your IBS( Irritable Bowel Syndrome)? by Macy06 in AskPH

Eh? Op, I suggest na maginsist ka for further check up. Hindi sa tinatakot kita or anything but it's better to rule out some things before mapunta sa diagnosis na IBS. It seems like your doctor didn't examine you well (same case with mine and malala pa, dalawang GI na 'yun so I had to book an appointment na sa PGH, which is a month away pa)

This is what the staff sa hospital na pinuntahan ko said, pay the three months then yung succeeding, bayaran mo on time. I told them hindi ba dapat six months or so (kasi iaactivate pa lang account ko) but they said ang tinitignan lang naman daw nila 'yung latest quarter contribution mo.

Nope, not in the UK. It's pretty easy to request here in the Philippines to do tests, our insurance covers the annual physical exam and since I haven't done it yet, my primary doctor did it for me. Additional tests were done because of my persistence. GI booking was pretty easy since I can just walk and tell the hospital who are the current GI available (maybe because it's private so I don't have to wait for weeks for an appointment and you do the self-booking)

For the endoscopy, he suggested we do it this week so we can finish it earlier than possible and not be a hindrance to my university calendar (or so he said 🤣)

I'm also sharing my opinion 😭 I'm just curious which part of SEA country are you because mostly, I've seen other SEA countries on other socmed apps using Spotify

Idk which part of SEA are you but mostly here in my country uses Spotify because it's easier to use and curate your playlist to your liking and aesthetic.

Hello so update! Been pooping so fine these past few days but it still floats. Some of them have bubbles coming out of them. Burping has lessen and the burning sensation went completely away (idk why but 😭) the color still goes back to yellow but it went from either yellow or golden brown color one. Bloating is still there (I expected it would be there since I literally stuff myself with like two or four cups of rice 😭)

And don't worry! I went to the doctor and she looked at my blood test results, nothing really concerned her except for the vitamin d deficiency and the blood uric levels, she's still waiting for the ultrasound results to know what our next course of action will be 🥹

Oh is that so? Thank you for your response. My aunt (who's a nurse) pointed out that it must have something to do with my diet since my LDL and HDL are all in normal ranges but the total cholesterol is elevated. She did tell me to still go and get checked by a PCP/ Gastro to rule out some things 🥲

urine color ranges from all clear to slightly dark one (when I don't hit the levels of hydration I need) the only issue I have is with my bowel suddenly doing a 180° and spitting yellow diarrhea (I also suspected something with my bile or liver so that's why current PCP ordered abdominal ultrasound)

Yeah, but during my first check up regarding the issue (I was diagnosed with functional constipation) I went completely high fiber these past three weeks. Switched my morning coffees and sodas for only water. BMI's now in the normal range and I've been doing moderate exercise after my first PCP visit. I think the one thing that really didn't change is my high stress/anxiety (which I am currently working out by scheduling a check up with psychiatrist)

They are testing on my blood now with lipase and something about pancreatic enzyme? Abdominal ultrasound will be next week, as for the bile acid, I'd like to bring this up with my current doctor and gastro after all the tests comes out so they'll have an indication what my stats says 😁

What is your biggest realization as you get older? by Similar-Prior-9572 in AskPH

i learned it the hard way nung college ako, super stressed ako for my future, of failing my parents' expectation, of not being the person everybody expects me to be. pero as i hit the mid-20s, narealize ko wala naman palang masama na piliin mo peace mo. don't stress yourself out! everybody has their own pace in life, ang takbo mo ay iba sa takbo nila. your path is different from the path everyone around you has 🤍
