what to do when all medications for my illness are withdrawn
I have a rare illness that makes my bowel paralysed, and the only 2 meds to treat it have been withdrawn from NHS last month. Is there anything I can do to appeal this? I refuse to have an ileostomy back as it was utterly horrific, when there are drugs out there that work. I would buy them from USA but I'm scared of fake…

Primark False Nails
I usually don't mind the Primark false nails, but I put some new ones on last night and they are awful! Complete waste of money. They are so flimsy, my thumb nail was bent just trying to get the last toothpaste out of the tube! I've bent a couple of other this morning just getting ready. Gutted as usually they are fine and…

Anyone know anything about dental records?
Hi all, Does anyone know if hospital recorded data, like height and weight, gets passed on to NHS dentists in anyway? Are they able to access that kind of information if you've had a recent (non-dental) hospital investigation? Like would it pop up on your file to say Patient X is 100kg and 180cm or would the dentist be…

Stay away from Shake-That-Weight!
There's a budget VLCD company out there called Shake-That-Weight and I just wanted to warn people that I had a really bad experience with them. Customer service is beyond awful - rude, sarcastic and unhelpful and I ended up losing a lot of money. It's obvious they are not interested in customer satisfaction. So please stay…

Is there a different way to have ones eyes tested other than the machine with the black dots? I had awful trouble taking the test last time as I couldn't distinguish which dots were clearer or sharper.
