Surgery and AFIB
I'm due to have an open mesh hernia repair under general anaesthetic soon. Since organising it with the consultant I have gone back into AFIB. I was 13 months into NSR with ectopics after a previous cardioversion. My cardiologist gave the all clear but wanted me to increase bisoprolol from 2.5mg to 5mg

Not so great news for Matthew
Last time I posted, Thomas was at home and we were waiting for Matthew to follow. All Matthew needed to do was continue to feed and grow. The hospital were increasing his feeds more and more but quite aggressively and he began to not tolerate them. One Saturday morning in October, we received a phone

Vaginal prolapse and adhesions
I have a vaginal prolapse with cistocele and rectocle. I also suffer from pelvic adhesions which cause me a lot of pain. I have in addition a pelvic injury through childbirth 40 years ago. My appointment at a fracture clinic lead to the suggestion that I had the pelvic bone fused. My gyneacologist

Unauthorised procedure question
Hi folks, I'm having a bit of a dilemma at the moment and decided to see what others feel about this. I'm in the UK if that helps. The short of it is: If you went into hospital for planned surgery and awoke to find that an additional procedure had been carried out without your authorisation, would

Parastomal Hernia Repair
I have a medium to large parastomal hernia which has been causing partial blockages and pain. I have decided to have a parastomal hernia repair and booked a date for the operation. I just wish to know what the after effects are. Does the stoma get smaller and cause leakages. Do I get pain in the long

How I got here
Last year I had a pretty horrific midriff hernia repair and reconstruction from which it took months to recover. I had a ct scan done at that time and a couple of small nodules were found on my right lung. No one seemed concerned and I was told I would have a followup scan this summer. In the meantime

General Anaesthetic While Taking Prednisolone
I have been told I need a hernia repair operation involving general anaesthetic. I am presently taking 9mg Prednisolone daily and wonder if it is safe to have the operation. Has anyone had experience of this? I have had Temporal Arteritis since March 2016 and was down to 2mg Prednisolone daily when

Suspected Endometrioma could also be desmoid or Sarcoma??
Hi, I was wondering if anyone has a similar experience or could shed any light on this scary and confusing situation I’m in. It will be 2 years in March since a lump was found on my abdominal wall by ultrasound. The radiologist was unsure but suspected an endometrioma. I am now with a bsge consultant

Hiatus hernia and b12
Hi, has anyone else developed chronic lpr (silent reflux) since increasing their B12 levels? Since upping my b12 levels I thought all my stomach issues had disappeared because my stomach functioning (emptying) had returned to normal after 25 years but I did develope a progressively worsening sore throat

Groin and leg pain and mini stroke
Eight years ago I had a left orchiectomy, which seemed to go well, and the following year I had a bilateral inguinal hernia repair. The surgeon caught one of my nerves (I think it was the femoral nerve) but I’m not sure, and he told me that it would eventually release it’s self. Sadly that has never

It's not twins!!!
Hi there. I've now found out why my stomach keeps bloating so badly. I had a CT scan yesterday and when I saw my oncologist this morning she said that she could see that my incisional hernia was much bigger than on my last ct scan. This came as a great surprise to me since no one had mentioned a hernia

Big hello to Sunday weigh in peeps 🙋🏻
Hello, I'm new here! I'm currently recovering from hernia repair surgery which has helped me lose a brilliant 10lb in the last 4 weeks. I still weigh 14 st 13 lb so I still have around two and a half stone to lose to get to my target of 12 st 7 lb. However I'm really pleased to see a first number change

Chest pain 24/7
