HNY!... and a warning for those who lead busy lives (aka all of us)
Firstly, I'm conscious I haven't posted in a while. 2023 has been a tumultuous and stressful year for me personally which involved a very close family member being diagnosed with cancer at the start of the year and much of my life for the next 6 months revolving around that. It's not why I'm here, but

Feeling scared and lost :(
Hi everyone! I write this post to seek some guidance/support/advice as I am terrified of what to expect. 😢 I have been feeling completely exhausted over the last few months, which I thought was due to stress and possibly burnout. That was until I found a lump on my neck, and found it difficult to

Hello to all Three years ago I was diagnosed with GCA and put on 75mg of Prednisilone tapering for 2 years till I finished. I managed to stay off Prednisone for 1 year. During that time I suffered many side effects, well that is what I thought was the case. I improved slowly but then went downhill

Karotyping blood test and utter despair
Hi all, I hope you're all managing through the holiday season ok. We got our pgt-a results back. We have 6 normal embryos and 6 abnormal embryos. However, the same chromosomal issues came up in 4 out of the 6 abnormal embryos so we have been recommended to have karotyping blood tests to see if either

Good wishes to everyone for a healthy new year
good morning everyone I’ve not been on here for some time, but just wanted to wish you all the very best for 2024. Let’s hope it’s a healthy and happy one. I’m still tripping along; apart from annoying arthritic issues with the strength of my hands. But my last blood tests were good and I’m currently
