The place for easily readable info on problems of the digestive system.
We discuss gastro symptoms and conditions such as Anaemia, Irritable Bowel, Coeliac, Constipation, Crohn's Disease, Ulcerative Colitis, Polyps, Bowel Cancer, to name a few... all in a no-nonsense way, avoiding the jargon where possible so you get the answers you need.
What's your symptom?
A low blood count or anaemia can lead to tiredness and breathlessness. This is may be due to loss of blood from the gut (especially if there is evidence of low body iron stores)...
