Thinking about giving up on diagnosis
Hi everyone. I finally had my first consultation at an endometriosis specialist centre. I saw a female doctor for the first time ever since my problems started a few years ago, which was nice. She couldn't believe that my GP surgery wouldn't let me continue with the combined pill and said I would HAVE

Methylation to feel good
Hi Folks, Thank you for all the advice and words of encouragement.

Period 4 months on Zoladex, and pain returned
I went onto the implant

after giving birth as I was told I can't have any more children and I would die if I had another. So no periods, and one appears when I am supposed to be in medical pause and causes my horrible endometriosis pain to return.

Dealing with an AFib episode without meds.
I was diagnosed with Paroxysmal AFib by an Energency Dept Consultant who ordered certain tests to be done in the future and sent me home with Anticoagulants. I wasn’t given any advice on how to manage an AFib episode or a follow up consultation just a letter to say my test results were OK.A year later

Gabapentin pharmacy change
is it possible that the same medication received from two different providers would not be the same? I have recently returned from a 3 month stay in the southern United States and received my 300 mg Gabapentin from a provider there. I have now returned north and requested a script sent to my usual provider

Pain outside period back again, 4th month on BC
It’s the 4th month I’ve been on the birth control patch, I’ve been doing the 3 weeks on, one week off like my gp told me I had to do. The third month it finally started helping and I wasn’t getting pain outside my period and on my period the pain didn’t get worse until later in the day on the first day
