The end of the second week of HHD training
Wow, it is a lot. I will not sugar coat this experience at all. This week, at my Monday appointment I had a conversation with my Nurse. Couple of things needed to change. One was dialysis four times a week was too much. Next, I did not need more than 2 hours a day. AND.....I went home Thursday of week

Sick day rules after having IV cortisol?
On holiday in Majorca with family and had been fine although probably not pacing so much with increased activity compared to home in the UK. During the night developed severe d & v and did not realise it was an adrenal crisis, just thought I had a bug. Luckily I had told husband and daughter about

fluticasone propionate
I was diagnosed a month ago with Bronchiectasis after a Ct scan for my stage 4 breast cancer. I was referred to a pulmonologist who said I had asthma as well as Bronchiectasis and prescribed a nebulizer with abuterol/ventolin and fluticasone propionate He did a bronchoscopy and also found MAC. I will

Penile Implants
Here in the U.S. there are two penile implants for E. D. They are the Coloplast Titan and the AMS 700. Both are internal with a saline water bulb hidden in the scrotum. When an erection is needed it is pumped up. Afterwards a click and the thing puts the fluid back in the bulb. Surgery looks barbaric

What to do with cramps?
I am just going to post a quick question..... what do you do about the friggin' cramps? I have had only three dialysis treatments and by the second one, I had cramps in my legs and feet. Yesterday, I administered saline back into my system and the cramps stopped at the treatment center. However, later

As I promised, I am going to document my journey as I have done before. Now it is hemodialysis. Holy mackerel.

You are all babies so far that I have read. My tumor was removed by surgery AN and they called it a schwannoma. But who knew from what I was told I don't think they knew much. It was taken in 1990, a large bugger that left me deaf, palsied, tinnitus, open eyed, and short of balance., Neeedless

Small uterine polyp 6.5mm and continuing with FET? Any success stories
Hi all, My main question is has anyone gone ahead with a FET when they have had a small polyp on their lining and what was the outcome? If positive outcome was there any problems later down the line with the polyp. Being offered 3 options, continue with the FET as it's smaller than the NICE guidelines

CUT PRE-SURGERY - MURPHY'S LAW?
Well this happened Tuesday morning. The two bottles fell off the rollator seat and one, although plastic) cut the skin through to the shin. The skin flap is intact. Immediately started to cry. It didn't hurt at all. I was thinking they would postpone my surgery which is tomorrow morning. Immediately

Day 2 Enhertu infusion
The first day the infusion protocols went very smoothly. Received saline fluids first, 3 premeds for nausea etc. then the Enhertu. No pain no side effects. My infusion nurse suggested a port for me. My vein in my arm is scarred. So port it is. I am drinking 💦 and eating light carrots 🥕 🍦 🥗! No nausea

BRONCHIECTASIS….PLUS Allergic to medical face mask…any non polypropylene/TPE ones available?
Hi I’m having a nightmare with my bronchiectasis, I’ve had numerous exacerbations this year, use my rescue pack and prednisone when needed…cant remember being well in all honesty. I had HIB in April and given Levofloxacin as Doxycycline won’t shift my HIB. Think I had HIB in 2015, 2016, 2018 and 2023

Tezepelumab/Spirometry with Reversibility
Hi, hope everyone is managing well. I’m just looking to hear others experiences if possible. I’m quite complex and don’t show a high FeNO and spirometry is normal and my asthma is driven by neutrophils for inflammation. Best peak flow is 440, hovering around 220-350 - 220 is pre meds in the morning
