Thanks HB.  Not TMI at all.  My bowels are pretty regular but I do get horrible bloating and pain :(

It is probably the refined sugars - I find if I have junk days, i.e. cakes, biscuits, crisps - rather than 'proper' food - I feel bloated, as I do if I have too many canned soups during the week  :-\

Just going back to the original post, I personally love this programme, in fact I love all things medical. Plus it's how I learn not just for me but one day I may be able to help anther person.
I think really the name is wrong now as it I no longer just people with an embarrassing problem. Many many have been through the NHS mill for years and got nowhere but this programme gets results in return for a person agreeing to appear.
I remember well the case of a child with masses of varrucas who docs had given up on, the doc on the show diagnosed a rare disorder and she needed chemotherapy to save her. Left to the NHS she was likely to have died.

I can never understand why consultants don't follow up their patients via the NHS - i.e. people who have lost HUGE amoutns of weight but can't get the flabby remaining skin removed: that they need to go onto a programme in order to get the treatment 'finished' as it were  ::).  There are various conditions where the NHS seems to have given up on patients  >:(

A friend of mine went privately for stomach banding.
She then had a tummy tuck and a boon job on the NHS to get rid of excess skin. She had at that point kept the weight off for 3years.

We kind of lost touch.....Just recently I heard she had thyroid cancer but is doing ok.

Wonder if there is a link to obesity.
