Freckles 0 Posted August 17, 2009 No they dont have Iron in them Anita, but they do have Folic Acid, is that as bad? They're Berocca, the same as the Spire gave me when I had the op. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Freckles 0 Posted August 17, 2009 Thanx Anita, I was always so regular, its gotta be the lack of food hasnt it? This has been ongoing for over 5 weeks, maybe its time to get a scan of my bowels. I have to pluck up courage to see my GP, and arrange a scan at the Spire, with my private healthcare, cos there has gotta be a big waiting list for this stuff, on the NHS. Hubby says its my imagination, but i know its not. I will pluck up the courage soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I got it in the middle of my back too and couldn't bear to put my back against a chair or bed, keep taking the windeeze. You will improve...

Peppermint is good for wind and if you get the very strong peppermint oil you only need tiny amounts to really start to give you some comfort. Fennel tea also works.

jackiem 0 Posted August 18, 2009 Hi Westie Galatea and Freckles.......... Well I survived the worst night ever!!!! I eventually fell asleep about 3am after taking another windeze. OMG I have never experienced anything like that before (and I dont want to again). Taking Freckles advice and not eating late, although I had my tea at 6ish. 'm going to get a suppy of peppermint just incase. Strange though it didnt come on until I got into bed, then I felt a bit sick and the rest ishistory. One good thing has come out f it, its put me off of eating. Its gone now, I just feel shattered. Take Care Jackie Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
