Spike
So my Christmas present was a spike in my Tinnitus. It seem to lower then spike again until New Year when the spike has remained. Its driving me nuts. I had made an appt with Audiology dept but to be honest what can they do? I find reading about Tinnitus & people's experience quite overwhelming.

Prostap injections?? Does anyone have any tips pls.
The consultant has just prescribed Prostap injections, whilst I'm on the waiting list for a hysterectomy through endometriosis. Has anyone used Prostap? And what were/ are your experiences?

Surgery Cancelled .. because I look to fit and well!
I had to post this due to how utterly ridiculous my day was yesterday. After 2 years of scans and appointments and 6 months of prostap. My doctor cancelled my surgery to remove endo and adhesions and also confirm the 6cm growth on my uterus is not suspicious because .. I quote .. you look fit and well

Tinnitus louder than usual
I had inflammation in my right ear with headache, doctor gave me Otomize, but the headache was still there, went back to the doctor told me to see a pharmacist, they gave me nurofen, didn’t help, went back to the doctor again, they gave me antibiotics and codeine, this seemed to make my headaches worse

Prostap help!
I wondered if anyone else experienced this and if so how they managed it. Since the birth of my second child 9 months ago I have continuously bled and have had constant period pain! I’ve had normal ultrasound scans, laparoscopy, hysteroscopy. My gynaecologist cannot find what’s going on. The only

Period after Prostap
I had prostap for 7 months for endometriosis and stopped as I developed high blood pressure. My last injection was due 3rd Jan which I declined and my periods still haven’t returned (6 months since last injection was due). How long have people waited for their periods to return? I have gained a stone

A few surgeries, 1 ectopic pregnancy and 2 children later have had very few symptoms (yeyy). After I had a coil fitted

Finger misbehaving (!) ...Ulnar Deviation
Hello, I recently noticed my middle finger has gone bent towards the pinky finger. I couldn't believe my eyes and did internet search. It happens to people with RA and Lupus. A bit shocking. I have been doing mild squeezing exercise daily to help increase my hand strength. I think it may be due to

I have pectus carinatum/pigeon chest from when aged 10 left over from meningitis, I also have Juvenile Myoclonic Epilepsy, not a good mixture, as such have probably broken every rib in my already weakened chest? I was diagnosed with Prostate Cancer in 2022, but the Decapeptyl SR injections considerably

Finally got a diagnosis of Endometriosis today
I've been on such a journey with my pelvic pain. I'm 50 and I had a hysterectomy 4 months ago for fibroids. A laparoscopy ruled out Endo last year. I was pain free for the first time in months. I started hrt and my original pains 6 weeks ago came back with a vengeance just like they did last year when
