  1. [quote user="mint"]That can't be right because I thought a lowered immune system makes you liable to all sorts of infections and could be responsible for leaving you predisposed to all manner of nasties, including cancer (so I understand!)

    On a side track but maybe related to the flu vaccine, I had a tuberculin test recently and I had no reaction to the jab, none whatsoever.  So, is that good or bad?

    It may mean you're not immune to TB , I had my vaccine as a school child ,but didn't scar so twice I've had to have skin tests to prove my immunity ( I need to have this for work) I have had positive reactions both these times so the fact you aren't reacting is worrying
  2. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news but there is a post on another forum , from JR s wife . Sadly he died the day after his operation which itself was a success , but other complications followed
  3. Sweet 17 the best thing I did for my tooth abcess was to have the tooth removed.Years ago when I had dental surgery they told me to use hot salty mouth washes to keep everything clean
  4. Before you look at possible remedies, you need a definate diagnosis, get everything else ruled out and then, and only then ,treat it as irritable bowel. Return to your doctor and tell him you want to be investigated .Often the diagnosis of IBS is made because every other potential cause has been eliminated .One bout of pain may not merit investigation but more than once certainly does
