Ovaries- stay or go?
Hi everyone. After over 30 years of pain and extreme bloating over the last two years, I’ve sadly no other option than to have a hysterectomy, I’ve been told. I’ve only ever had two laparoscopies in 2012. They’re reluctant to remove my ovaries, stating all the health related issues it can cause,

prolaspe
I have been told I have uterine and bladder prolaspe with anterior and postier repair. I have had a shelf pessary but had it in and out several times as it is uncomfortable and makes me sore.

vasospastic angina
Hi, I had a radical hysterectomy one month ago. Since then vasospastic angina has got worse. Can this kind of surgery and drop in hormones cause issues. I am told it will settle but to date it hasn’t and resulted in two trips to A&E. Grateful for advice. Many thanks

Slowly does it!
9 years ago I joined this group for support in losing some weight. I didn’t succeed. I only put on more weight, an extra 5kg. But in August 2020, my 58th birthday, I had an appointment at the hospital. It was a follow up after finding cancerous cells during a hysterectomy. I weighed 87.7kg, which for

Hello & help! Tocilizumab or Baricitinib?
hello, I’ve had RA for 10yrs, I’m 47 and this is the first forum I’ve joined, I’m battle weary, in a lot of pain, frightened and feeling the least optimistic I’ve ever felt since diagnosis. I know everyone reacts differently to each drug but I’m just looking for some hope… Had Etanercept circa 8yrs

After your diagnosis of uterine cancer, how was your experience with the healthcare system?
I was diagnosed in 2015 with Stage 1A, serous endometrial cancer. My gynecologist made the diagnosis after a suspected diagnosis of endometrial polyps. She performed a D&C with biopsy and made the diagnosis. Fortunately, she was on staff at a highly ranked university medical center and was able to arrange

living with endo
Hi all - first time poster I have stage 4 endometriosis with adhesions to bowel and fibroids. I am due a hysterectomy but have been told by consultant that 20% chance it won’t help with the pain, that the endometriosis on bowel will likely remain and there are other risks generally with the surgery.

Tapering after surgery
Hi I have been on prednisolone since 2015 when I was on 60mg and also methotrexate and it has taken me till now to reduce to 3mg a day. On the 14th March I had a hysterectomy and pelvic floor repair. I was told to stop methotrexate for a while before surgery because it increases the risk of infection

Hi everyone - meeting my oncologist today
I had an
abdominal
hysterectomy
in July and it went well, the surgeon seemed pretty confident it wasn’t cancer at the time and then it hit me pretty hard when he told me 3 weeks later that the results showed cancer had started in my womb and moved to my ovary.
