Any advice - could this be endo?
Good afternoon. This may be a long post but I am hoping if I put everything out there someone may be able to tell me if anything I have sounds like Endo. I am being pushed from pillar to post by the hospital and am getting desperate. Here goes the life story! October 2012 saw me have some serious

Pains - could it be iron suplements?
For the last week I've been getting increasing aches and pains. First in my hands and feet, then my arms and legs too, now all over. I've been taking 600mg of Ferrous Sulphate a day for a month now. Could it be that or just worse hypo symptoms?

Good news and bad news. Anyone else with P.O.T.S.?
Well, I had good news in that the biopsy on my nodules showed them not to be cancerous and although they still can't find out WHY I constantly cough when eating (they say nodules are too small at around 2cms, to cause the problem) my ultrasounds, barium swallow and endoscopes all show nothing. They

Very weak after losing a lot of blood
Following heart surgery five months ago (two more stents fitted to coronary arteries) l was prescribed a very strong anti platelet drug called Ticagrelor. The alarming side effects to this drug put me in hospital and I lost a lot of blood from both my prostate and a pierced bladder which was damaged
