Azoospermia straight to ICSI?
Hi, I hope everyone is doing okay with their fertility journeys. I wanted to ask if anyone has experience of fertility consultant moving straight to suggesting ICSI when azoospermia is not fully investigated? As soon as we had to sperm samples with zero sperm count, my husband and I went private for

Clarification please?
Hi. I am hoping someone can give me some clarification…my dad has been on the “watch and wonder” roller coaster for 5 years now. He has had multiple MRIs and biopsies in the past, genetic testing too, all came back negative. The only thing out of whack has been the PSA. He did a round of 4 weeks of antibiotics

Advice on choosing between Duloxetine and Paroxetine.
Dear Health Unlocked community, I am new to this forum and would appreciate some advice please. I am thinking of changing Fluoxetine which I am on now, to either Duloxetine or Paroxetine, with my psychiatrist’s help, but not sure which to take. It is to help me with depression and anxiety which I

Back to plan B - No longer chasing Lu177
Our next step is Xofigo. Hubby had been through 10 sessions of docetaxel in 2021 where PSA went down to 1.1 (previously 117 at start of chemo). He got a break from it for 2 months, but it climbed back up to 46.8 and had to go back on docetaxel again. It didn't work as well as last time - his PSA never

I’m on this site as I’m feeling stupid after an anxiety attack yesterday. I knew it was anxiety but just couldn’t stop it.
I’m 9 months post out of blue heart attack at 59yrs. I’d had no risks & I exercised 4 times a week. I was fit. It’s left me with heart muscle damage, reduced ejection fraction and abnormal heart rhythms. I’ve got medication galore. I’ve been doing well- some psychological bumps but had support and felt

Lupus, life, and counselling
Well fellow lupies, 😜 I've had my first appt with a psych today, bar neuropsych 😆, and have got it done privately. Costly, but if it's something I need then it's priceless to me. Well, you may ask why now? Why counselling? Well lupus can take your sense of identity and not only that but those who knew

Beginning to readjust to life with PMR
As you may know, I am fairly new on here. Diagnosed promptly at the beginning of March I am learning how to readjust and learning what I can and can't do. I did far too much on Friday so I know I will rest all day today . I have ordered some decent frozen meals from COOK for the days I'm too tired.

ALDH2 deficiency advice
I have had years of gut problems, partly, I’m sure, connected to my hypothyroidism, lactose intolerance and gluten intolerance, however I’m not sure if it’s all due to my thyroid. I am wondering whether I may also have ALDH2 deficiency. If you’re unfamiliar with this, it’s a common genetic mutation,

Hi! I suffered a broken jaw after an attack from my ex boyfriend nearly 8 years ago now. I’ve been left with an asymmetrical face on both sides and it really affects me day to day. Some times I’m better than Others but i think about it every single day and it makes me really depressed. Has anyone been

Do you have views on newborn genetic testing for the ataxias?
Do you have views on whether it's right to test for conditions that don't have cures, such as the ataxias? It's quite contraversial among some ataxia clincians. Genomics England has announced that in 2023 it will begin a research study to explore the potential of using whole genome sequencing to detect

Anyone with Exon 12 mutation out there?
Hi Everyone, I was diagnosed a year and a half ago with polycythemia vera with a negative v617f mutation and a positive Exon 12 mutation. The literature says that about 95% of the p-vera cases are positive for v617f while 3% have one of many Exon 12 mutations. The disease presents itself a little
