What caused yours? Do you notice more on one side of your face than the other? And how's your neck?
Lol my neck is fine, no nose picking over here. Just general getting older
the worst part is they wearnt there two years ago, they seemed to have popped up over the last year. So frustrating. 0 -

Sucks doesn't it? Seems whatever it is I eat I just bloat up straight away. I'm staying away from wheat and spicy foods which seems to help a little but I can't remember the last time I've had a day without discomfort to some extent. 0 -

Does the way you sleep against your pillow seem to bring any lines on?0 -

yes, tried a number of them, cheap, expensive, from the pharmacy, health store....
They help to an extent which is good I guess, but nothing close to a cure or 'normal' situation 0 -

Another sufferer here. With me there seems to be no food in particular that triggers a bout but there are foods which certainly exacerbate things if I'm going through a bad patch.
I mean I could have a pizza today and be fine but a dinner of spuds, veg, and maybe chicken the next day and be in bits. Or it could easily be the other way around.
It starts with cramps which are worse when I lie flat, bloating, and just general horribleness. Acidophilus kind of helps and Colfac tabs. Then there's this thing that happens when I eat a big dinner say and I'm feeling ok after but look 12 months pregnant.

What was the cause of it?
Ive had it and I still lift weights. Cant squat cos the knees though.
I think it might have been from doing one armed shoulder presses this time. €360 in consultant fees and €760 in deep cortisone injections finally sorted it out. I'm just too terrified to lift weights anymore now I spent 2 months in chronic pain. 0 -

Although I'm taking it more for the brain than the gut. Been taking it for about 2 weeks and I think there's some improvement, even if only a little.
Don't think you need to worry about anybody rushing out to get mood stabilisers, they're not all that easy to come by

that's what bother me most nearly, that there doesn't seem to be anything in particular. I'd quite happily spend the rest of my life eating just beansprouts and sardines if that's what it took to sort my gut out but there's just no rhyme or reason to it.
I think for me stress is a big part of it as well (I'm pretty sure that was the 'cause' if any)
Going on holidays in 2 weeks and I have to say I'm somewhat concerned that I might end up the 'fartguy' on the campground 0 -

I've actually been casually looking for that product. The same company makes a product called alflorex to improve digestion (which is widely available). I've been taking it for a couple of months and have noticed a great improvement in my digestion... I probably have the 'messier' form of ibsAnd very poorly understood as well.

Well, it's hard to be sure what exactly I was doing at the time, all those years ago, but once the Doc told me it was part of my femoral nerve that was affected, I read up on it and saw that sudden weakness of the knee - exactly as described by Graces7 - is one of the fairly common signs. And also a pain on the inside of the knee, which I'd noticed on and off, especially on long drives, but thought it was some kind of strain ...
Don't know what I did back in February that suddenly crippled me, but ever since, I can feel my vertebrae clicking and clunking when I'm walking on uneven ground. 0
