View 24 Repliesi've had severe kidney stone pain recently and already had two water infections as a result, I don't have my CT scan till next week so I will have to wait to see where they are and whether they are small or big etc and how to move forward.
The question I have is what is most likely triggering them?
Last week I spent 5 days with no pain I felt on top of the world, I returned to work and after doing my shift all hell broke loose and my pains were severe enough for me to go to A&e. i again got an infection which meant i've been bedridden for the last 5 days.
I'm terrified of what to eat and drink.
the only thing i can say i've been drinking a lot of recently is diet cokes and plenty of coffee.
if someone can tell me that these types of drinks or caffeine is general can be a trigger i will have to give them up as i cannot just have one or two a day.
Can someone who has maybe been through my kind of circumstances give me advice on foods or drinks which may cause these triggers?
Baffled my GP, but eventually I found that the cause of my itchy legs (mainly around the joints) was when I changed employer, and started drinking instant coffee all day instead of filter coffee.
I 'cured' myself by going onto green tea for a few weeks, then changed to filter coffee - and hey presto, no itchy legs any more, and have been fine now for 11 years.
when i drink alcohol or coffee my throats starts to have mucus frequently

Could this be the reason for my acne problem or would my acne go away if I stop eating this c**p. What do you think? Im really tired of this acne problem, its really affecting me.

View 8 RepliesI know with Peri and menopause sugar isn't good...neck it's not good in general for anyone and you always hear watch your caffeine (because of hormones) So, which is better...dark chocolate or milk chocolate if you had to choose one. I know a lot of women have fibrocystic breasts so I'm asking this question to try and get a better understanding just how much chocolate affects the breasts and hormones if really at all. What do you think?
