Who else waiting too long for time critical surgery?
Just lost our 29 year old daughter to an
aortic
dissection
. Surgeons that night did their best I am sure but she was awaiting aortic surgery delayed since March - too long! How many others are out there that are not getting their needed surgery?

Aortic dissection
Hello, My partner (32) underwent an emergency
aortic
dissection
7 weeks ago (16th March). The operation lasted 12 hours and was very complicated including being resuscitated twice and 2 blood diffusions. He left the operating theatre in a critical condition.

PKD diagnosis + aortic dissection
Has anyone any experience with
aortic
dissection
and PKD as I know an aneurysm of the brain/aorta is a linked complication? Any advice would be welcome. Given his age and what he has just been through, these complications are worrying.

I hate Anxiety
An
aortic
dissection
? A stroke? No Shutup brain. You’re gonna be ok. This will be over soon. Right? Right, sure, ok. Just don’t let anything bad happen to me. Please God. Deep slow breaths. Here comes the chest discomfort and bobble head feeling. Ok you can cry now it’s over.

Looking for correct group
Can anyone please advise if there is an HU group for my circumstances. I have SCC from parotid gland which has spread to neck lymph nodes. It's been removed by neck dissection and I'm on day 2 of Radio Therapy. Looking for support for the side effects of RT as well as recovery from the surgery. Thanks

Good news - Stage IIIB
Hi all, just wanted to share good news. I have had clear scan results today after being diagnosed with Stage IIIB, non small cell, adenocarcinoma in 2014, aged 43. My prognosis at the time was poor and I was told I was inoperable, terminal and treatable with palliative care. Discussions were around

Does being called for a flu jab every year (aged 62) make me an "at greater risk" person?
I am 62 years old and had CBGs, a Stent, an Aortic valve repair and repairs to my rising Aorta following an
Aortic
Dissection
. My question is am I a person with an underlying health condition, as far as Covid19 goes? I can't get a straight answer from anywhere else I have asked.

Aortic Dissection
Last year I had an
aortic
root
dissection
which subsequently dissected all the way down the aorta. The root was repaired . I just wondered if anyone else has this.

Type 2 Diabetes potential home remedy cure
Type 2 diabetes (also called diabetes mellitus) results from the perfect storm of not enough movement, too much of the wrong foods, emotional stress, lack of sleep, toxins, and genetics. More often than not, patients with type 2 diabetes look towards natural medicine in addition to their conventional

IBS basics for beginners
Dear all, I have recently been suffering from excess burping and stomach pains for which I became dependent on Nexium for a couple of weeks. I have recently found that this is due mainly to changing from almond milk to lactose free milk, and also because I have been drinking a lot of decaff tea and
