Rectovaginal and rectal endometriosis having hysterectomy in 8 days. They said I may wake with a colostomy bag??
So 14 months ago I had surgery, excision surgery. Four hours in operation. Rectovaginal, rectal, on side walls, and pelvic floor they found ‘superficial ‘ endometriosis. Had my tubes from kidney to bladder ( forget their name) moved as they had endometriosis on/around them. My uterus was noted as ‘bulky

Can antihistamines help during an asthma flare up ?
Hi everyone! As I am still struggling to bring my asthma under control, I was wondering if antihistamines (desloratadine) could potentially ease the symptoms or stop an ongoing attack that has been lasting for hours if not days ? I am very concerned about my asthma right now because I am going through

Caught between consultants & GP
I was referred to royal Brompton cons' he suggested not all symptoms were asthma so had a challenge test - said I have hypersensitive airways (which I knew). Was then asked to have a Mannitol test - reacted to first dose, needing x3 nebilising to sort asthma attack out! Now stuck between cons' and local

Allergy Testing
I went for a private allergy test and was told I had sensitivity to yeast and cows milk. I've eliminated these from my diet and after 6 weeks my asthma has improved a lot. I was prescribed Pred, Fostair, Montelukast and Avamys and am on a waiting list for an injection. Now I just have a puff or two

Do you use any medical apps?
If you do and are willing to spare an hour of your time, there is currently a study going on looking at asthma apps, how we use them and what we want from them. I learned about this as am an Asthma UK volunteer, but I know the study is looking for more participants. Let me know if you are interested

Mild COPD with Seretide 125
So things are getting confusing. My FEV1 is 70% which by any UK guidelines I have read is moderate. However my patient notes state all the spirometry results and declare that I have mild copd (which I am happy to accept!). I have been put on Seretide 125 twice a day and Salamol. I spoke to the BLF

Stomach acid-reducing drugs may raise risk of future allergies
I really don't feel the need to say much as an introduction after all the PPI posts here. However, I shall take one sentence from the paper:
We report an epidemiologic relationship between gastric acid-suppression and development of allergic symptoms.
And then suggest, while PPIs might have their

Does anyone have any advice about helping someone to come to terms with an asthma diagnosis?
Hi. My younger brother (10 years old) just got diagnosed with asthma and is having a hard time coping with it. He doesn't like having something wrong with him. My mom asked me to talk to him because I have asthma and know what it is like. I don't know what to say to him to make him feel better and not

Just been diagnosed with Asthma, even though have not had the results of the Chest X Ray back yet. Doctor is fairly certain it's Asthma. My lung function was pretty dire - scored 130 and should be around 400 :/ Just wanted to introduce myself as I can see myself coming here often, having been diagnosed

Laproscopy for endo and possible stoma
Hey ladies, so I've been in a lot of pain and discomfort for a year or so. Finally had ultrasounds then had an mri which has found endo on/in my bowel.
