Sjogrens anyone?
I've just been to the optician as I have had really sore gritty eyes for a few weeks. He says I'm not making enough tears and the normal time for a tear smear on the eyeball to last is about 16 seconds and mine is only lasting half that. He's given me a letter to take to my gp to get eye gel for through

Abolish screening programmes for the worried well and start treating the sick
I would like to abolish quotas and targets for the
cervical
screening
programme. Forcing 80% of women to undergo this procedure is an infringement of our civil rights.

Wasting my time getting a lap?
Hi everyone, I am 24 and having my first lap on Monday. I have had really pad periods since my first at 11, they have made me throw up, faint and at times black out from pain. My first gynae dissuaded me from getting a lap at 17 and just changed my pill as she felt I was too young it it was unlikely

Hi All, to keep a short version, I haven’t been feeling well since June this year and I also had the same symptoms towards the end of 2012 followed by a Sinus Infection in Dec 2012. I’ve experienced palpitations for 4/5 years now on and off but these seem to have been a regular occurrence since June

Second lap found no endo but some adhesions. Need some advice please!! Sorry it's so long!!
I was diagnosed with endo 2001 by a lap with also a fluid sac within my tubes & poss pcos. Afterwards I was put on Zoladex injections for 6 months and then had Ivf in 2004 which helped me to have my twin boys who are now 9. My pain was a lot better initially but my cycle was anything between 21 & 60

What are the real risks of having treatment for abnormal cells on the cervix?
I've had countless problems with pain/periods for years and was finally diagnosed with endo last year. I recently had a colposcopy where they found abnormal cells on my cervix. I had no treatment at the time as I had never had a smear test before and the nurse wanted to do one and get the results back

Heavy periods and bleeding between periods on the mirena coil and the combined pill.
Hi everyone, I had the mirena coil fitted in December 2011 due to heavy irregular periods I was told to expect it to take 3-6 months to take full effect. After 6 months there wasn't any improvement so I went to see my gp who prescribed me the combined pill to take as well as having the coil. My gp said

Any advice please: Could I possibly have endo?
Hi, I haven't been getting anywhere with this so thought it might be a good idea to ask some people that have experience first hand themselves. I have pains in my left side, I've been getting them for so long, they increase towards my period where I am in so much pain I can hardly move, I couldn't stand

Smear test came back "unable to process results"
So I went and made sure I had every possible test before my gyne appointment comes through, so that things wont be dragged out there with tests, however my smear has come back "unable to process results" and I cant have another before december. Anyone else experienced this? xxx

CA-125 test
Hi everyone, I'm new to this site but I am eating myself up with worry about some tests I am currently going through. I visited my doctors 2 months ago, with complaints of pain during and after sexual intercourse, abdominal pain, sharp pains in my ovaries, and pains down my legs, hips and my lower back

Mini Pill Problems?
I'm meant to have a
cervical
screening
and ultra sound this week. I am taking mefenamic acid and tranexamic acid to stop the bleeding, which seems to be working, and co-codamol for the pain (although I hate how ill they make me feel).

Abnormal period/bleeding (sorry if too descriptive/disgusting)
Hi everyone, I asked a question a week ago as I started having PMS symptoms and then started bleeding, even though I still had three contraceptive pills to take. I convinced myself that it was just a period, and continued to take my another pack of pills as soon as finishing the last pack (as advised

Extreme Pelvic Pain - no diagnosis can be found. Ideas?
When I first got my period at about the age of thirteen, it was relatively light and pain-free. Only at about the age of sixteen or so did I start to get cramps. By about eighteen they were out of control - I would be in so much pain I would end up on the bathroom floor crying and I was taking three
