waiting for surgery
Still waiting to hear if and when I will have surgery talked to the surgery by phone back in August. Who was very nice but it's all the waiting have lost my job as a train guard looking for new one in the company.

How To Request Cosmetic Surgery on NHS Due to Facial Different Caused By Illness?
Hi all, I have some questions regarding getting help and surgery due to the very negative facial and bodily differences I have had because of a serious illness. I suffered from severe toxicity which caused a loss of significant adipose tissue (fatty tissue) from my face and chest. It also caused a

incorrect dose of prednisolone?
Just less than a month ago, I reduced my first prednisolone dose from 15mg to 12.5mg. This was after a blood test. I wasn’t keen to reduce by more than ten percent, especially as I was going to be travelling a long way and be away for Xmas and new year, then home for two days and away again for eight

Ropinirole vs Buprenorphine!
I had a phone call from 1 Dr. who told me that Ropinirole would cure my RLS and was annoyed that I wouldn't take them. He decided to get the head of the Surgery to phone me to try to put pressure on me ! I did say that the 10 mcg had helped me a little bit but I would like a stronger patch . A few day's

Has anyone else struggled after catheter?
I had my endo and fibroids excised on Saturday. I'm hoping it's enough otherwise I'll be back for a hysterectomy to get rid of the adeno too. I found out the day before surgery I would be catheterised. This was fine until the catherer was removed a day later, when I really struggled to empty my bladder

Pregnancy and Endometriosis
Just reaching out to other ladies going through FETs with Endometriosis before lap surgery. does anyone have any positive stories? If IVF doesn’t work out this year was going to look into Lap surgery. I am on the waiting list to see a gynaecologist, but the waiting list is a year ! In my area.

Violent shaking
Hi, everybody. I was diagnosed November 2019 and have tapered to 3mgs a day. I was woken at 3.30 this morning by the badger eating the food we put out for it in the garden. The tin it's under makes a noise. I started to feel a bit strange with the familiar shoulder aches, but then gradually started

Looking for TKR advice
Hello everyone. I’m a 55 year old male who has had knee problems for the majority of my life. I think it originated from sports injuries as a schoolboy but I remember twisting it while at work when I was about 17 too. I have a long history of having treatment for knee problems including 2 or 3 arthroscopy

Pale skin during flare ups
Does anyone else get a really washed out, pale almost grey skin during flare ups? My Mum often comments on me looking very pale but I caught sight of myself in the mirror yesterday and my eyes were dark underneath (despite having had a long nap), skin so pale with an almost greenish grey tint. Not very

New to group
Good morning, I just found this group online while looking for a support group for my husband’s demyelinating syndrome. I have been through the wringer with chronic back pain due to degenerative disc disease since 1989. I try not to let my pain define me, though. My new pain specialist recommended

Denosumab vs Bisphosphonates
Dear all, I will keep this brief so that I don't bore anyone! I am 55 yr female, and to my horror, fractured T12 out of the blue one morning two and a half years ago. Little did I think it was a fracture, so I walked and went to the gym for 4 days. This is with evolving neurological signs. Anyway,

secondary hypo and doctor questioning diagnosis
Hello everyone, I moved to a new GP in the last few years (house move). When I moved, my doctor just continued prescribing levothyroxine because it was on my records and although he wasn't testing T3 he did look at T4 and seemed to listen to me when I explained the levels I needed to be at, in order

Most know the story. Something I can't figure out.
Most people here know my wife's story and went to the hospital with Eshauphageal erosion, but a typo on her Chart (Fibrosis vs Cirrhosis) had a dramatic impact. Doctors thought they were dealing with Cirrhosis vs NASH with Fibrosis. That was tracked down to a dictaphone error. In reality, two weeks

laparoscopy surgery
Hi, I had laparoscopy surgery earlier this week. I am terrified to be put asleep and all invasiveness of surgery. It was in all honesty fine, I just kept a clear mind. Explained to my anaesthetist i was very anxious, he made sure i was given a strong painkiller as soon as i was in the anaesthetic room
