Ozurdex implant
Hi I have CRVO with macular oedema in my right eye, this happened when I was 46, it’s coming up to a year now and I’ve had 3 lucentis injections and 5 bouts of laser, I’ve recently had the ozurdex implant and i must say that it has improved my sight but I was just wandering if anyone else has had this

Cataract Operation / Lens Implant
Has anyone had a cataract operation, lens implant. I assume it’s ok to have this op while having an MPN, the eye surgeon didn’t know about MPNs. I have ET (MPL) and on Pegasys.

Annual update, DNA testing, Gastric Bypass, Fungal Skin Infection, Brittle Nails, Looking for GI doc
So almost a year has gone by, now I am headed into being 47, still struggling with Dupuytrens in my right hand, but had the cataract surgery and things are looking "brighter" LOL. I recently did my DNA through 23 and Me, did not tell me much healthwise, but I did find out that I am 83% Irish and English

Good news
Had my every 10 yr colonoscopy this AM and all good. Next one in 10 years. Yahoo. Back of ibrutinib that I held for 3+ days before. No lymph nodes bouncing up not that I thought there was much of a chance, but glad anyway. A bit out of it from the anesthesia so I will keep this short.

First post and I am a wife of a sufferer
Hi and thanks for even reading this. My husband was diagnosed beginning of Sept with alcoholic liver disease and had ascites, oedema, some jaundice, tiredness etc. Our GP has been amazing and he has had the ascites drained ( 8.75L) and condition is we think stable. I'm just finding it hard and ended

Suggestions for reducing spironolactone and furosemide without having a rebound
Anyone with experience or tips for reducing and coming off of diuretics. I have read about and experienced a rebound effect of putting on water weight quickly. My labs are great and my liver seems fine after 7 months of no alcohol, healthy living and some herbs my doctor approved I could take. I

Hi everybody! A few words and questions
Hi guys, I have been a member of this forum group since last month, and although this is my first post, I read the posts and responses on here often. I was discharged from Aintree hospital on November 28 this year, after being in hospital for 3 and a half months. I was first admitted to Oldham Royal

Low Fasting Gastrin.

Excruciating pain immediately after eylea injections - no betadyne
Nearly a year of Avastin injections and two years of Eylea injections, no betadyne being used the last two years because I could not tolerate. Now (the last 4 inections) I have excruciating eye pain after the injection and last time a few minutes of no vision at all in the eye. I take Tylenol immediately

Some really good news at last...
I finally have some good news that I hope one or two other people might hopefully find useful and even encouraging in some way. Following lots and lots of further scans and tests in x-rays during the last couple of months, and after a recent kind of 'summing up' appointment with my GP, I've now been

Hello again, and thank you for all your input re this process, now I have to decide, how much I have to pay for the 2 lenses suggested by surgeon, I am in ontario, and ohip benefits have apparently changed since a few years ago, so I am told by surgeon, the lowest out of pocket lens, at $225 would do
