I have spoken to a Senior Partner at my practice this morning and he has asked me to try Fybagel again. The last trial had disastrous and embarrassing consequences. So I will take it twice daily until Thursday and see what happens. Friday I have to travel down the country for a family wedding on...

That's interesting as lots of sites suggest avoiding seeds, even fruit with seeds. I guess all I can do is try them and see. Hospital suggested Fybagel, but one dose was disastrous. Thanks for passing that on.

Thanks for that. As I'm staying off carbs, I have substituted quinoa, so maybe.

Sorry for my ignorance, but what is the difference between C and D?

Thank you so much for taking the time to reply. I have read everything I can find and tried every suggestion. Lived on nothing but water for 24 hours. Cut everything out and introduced one at a time, but can't find my triggers. I usually eat lots of veg and have cut out some fibres, like...

Thank you for your reply. It is horrendous. I look and feel nine months pregnant, and despite eating very little, and no carbs, I'm actually gaining weight. Can't bear any clothes on, so housebound until something 'moves' BTW, can I ask how you get your IBS diagnosis? I'm being told it must be...

Hi all. Does any one juggle Type 2 and IBS? I'm struggling with extreme bowel issues and trying to follow a low carb diet for my Type 2. Hba1c was up after lockdown and the death of my mother, so horrible Diabetes Nurse wanted me on Metformin and Gliclazide, though didn't explain properly...

Not been on here for a long time, but came back for advice. Trying to lose weight and lower my HbA1c. After watching the MM programme, I bought the 8 Week Blood Sugar Diet book and have been following the recipes. Blood sugar has improved, though erratic, but my IBS symptoms are chronic and I am...

Thanks everyone - I have said no. I'm now hoping that more people will take this seriously

Thank you so much for your reply. I really wish that my son had not put me in this position, because I feel as though I'm between a rock and a hard place.

Certainly not all day every day. But this is part of the problem. He will spend some time at home with parents, and some time with a friend of my DIL, and with me for potentially two days. This surely gives more opportunity to spread the infection?

I am type 2 and at the moment my HbA1c is higher than normal as my mother died just before Christmas, which obviously raised my stress levels. Almost 5 years ago, I had Bilateral Pulmonary Embolisms, but this is not classed as a vulnerability, though I easily get breathless, according to my DN...

Thanks - used Homehealth with the codes.

Thanks - just paid £25.99 for 250 at Homehealth using the codes.

Advice please on cheapest place to buy testing strips for SD Codefree meter?

I'm on standard Metformin - 4 tablets daily and my main problem is uncontrollable wind. I know it sounds funny, but some days I daren't go out. It is load and smelly and I have absolutely no control. Even bending over makes me pass wind. After reading this, I think I'll speak to my GP about a...

Thank you - it was from your blog, but I think someone else has C & Pd it and transposed g for ml. However it doesn't mention whipping the cream, so at least I know now.

Help please. A few weeks ago someone posted this recipe and I printed it off as I intend to make this for Christmas. I can't remember who posted it and can't find it again, so I'm hoping someone can help with a couple of questions? For the mousse, it states 350g of whipping cream. Whipping...

Thanks for all the replies. Was feeling very down last night, but you are all right - I'm in control and I am the only one who knows how I feel.
