Prostap

[Hutchy79]

Hi all hope everyone's doing well (as they can be)

I've posted about prostap before but this is a different question, I have my first appt with a new consultant on Thursday and I no this is going to be the stupidest question ever but do I tell him about everything my previous consultant said? Reason being she wanted to start me on prostap but I suffer with osteoarthritis of both knees and a hip and the more I look into this the more im thinking this really isn't a good idea especially suffering with OA, I'm just wondering whether anyone else has had this injection suffering with similar conditions, I'm writing down everything I want to ask the new consultant as I no once I get in there there will be things I forget x x

Hi Lindle

I'm finally seeing the consultant (or team member) that you advised me about at RVI so thank you very much you've been a great help, I've just rang the surgery to get a copy of the letter the were abit flabbergasted as to why I wanted a copy I just said it was my rite! Ive had every time if scan but never a DEXA Scan which when I think about it is pretty silly really considering the OA and the fact I've been having knee and hip operations for the last 15yrs, I'm writing everything down from start to finish I somehow don't think I'll be sleeping tonight and best buy a new notepad... I'm pleased it's not just me that thinks prostap is a no no for me one I always feel a second opinion makes you feel more certain that you were rite x
