urethral constriction
Had chemo and then cystectomy 10 years ago. Last few years, kidney stones then UTIs, until lithotripsy for the stones. But have urethral constriction, so every 4 month I have stents put through my stoma. Has anyone heard of, or had the procedure done for the constriction using Optilume? Supposedly

I have numerous complicating issues related

14 year old son with tight foreskin, will he need surgery
My son recently told his dad that his foreskin doesn't retract. I think he was to embarrassed to talk to me. Took him to the doctors and was told to apply steroid cream and was told try gentle stretching. Went back a month later, and although the foreskin is less tight and now retracting it's not fully

Epilepsy resulting from surgery to temporal lobe
Tests revealed unknown type of brain tumours - gliomas or cysts . Surgery in 1989 showed they were benign epidermoid cysts which were removed. However, the craniotomy triggered epilepsy.... infrequent daytime absences and regular nocturnal seizures. Absences were quickly controlled with AED medication

Hi everyone, sorry this is long, I hope you are all having a ‘low pain’ day. I was just wondering, out of curiosity, if anyone else has suffered from abdominal infections caused by endo. I am just getting over my third this year and have trouble identifying when the pain is infection as I’m sure you

private consultation
hi , I have just received my date for a consultation with the surgeon for 15th Jan which seems such a wait … my cardiologist did mention it might be worth paying for a private c appointment to speed things up , has anyone done this and found it beneficial? It is a lot of money to pay if it will not
