tricuspid and mitral
I had my TOE yesterday and it was painless although a little uncomfortable but I did have sedation and was pleased that I had. The nurses and doctors were very sweet and informative without being alarmist. It turns out that I have two moderately severe leaky valves, mitral and tricuspid, both parachute

Fears confirmed
I posted previously on this long and tortuous journey to ( almost) a diagnosis. Almost because my concierge PCP gave me a heads up on the biopsy report which hasn’t been posted on my digital chart and I haven’t yet heard from my Urologist/ Onocologist. It’s been 4 mos since my annual checkup said my

Confused
Just had a message from my GP surgery and as my TSH is 0.13 they want to lower my dose from 75 to 50. What do I do?

Worsening Stress Incontinence 20 Months After Surgery?
I had my Robotic Prostatectomy 20 months ago at age 54 and everything went really well. Good post surgery pathology (no positive margins or extracapular extension). I didn't need pads about 5 months after surgery. I of course experienced stress incontinence after but at 1 year it was virtually non-existent

31 year old female Hi everyone I am due to have a diagnostic laparoscopy in 2.5 weeks. I am so nervous about the procedure and unsure whether to go ahead. My pain over the last few months has been manageable and my periods are ok. I don’t know whether I’m getting used to the pain. I have changed my

Had appt with urologist, although already stated no surgery
Had appt and the urologist seemed to he trying to persuade me to have prostatectomy although I was clear at diagnosis no surgery primarily due to incontinence issues.He said permanent incontinence occurred in less than 5% of cases, I disagreed and said 10/15% is nearer the mark am I correct?

painful cramping when urinating
Hey guys! I had a diagnostic laparoscopy a week ago and I keep experiencing pain in my bladder and sharp cramping when trying to wee. Is this a normal thing for after surgery? This is my op so I’m just unsure.

Surgery for fallopian tubes removal
Hi Has anyone had fallopian tubes removed but ovaries and uterus left intact? I've been advised to have this surgery through keyhole , ct scan shows abscesses in tubes. Although six months ago another scN showed abscess near uterus and one doctor mentioned hysterectomy. The doctor I saw this morning

Endo in Csection scar
Hi all, I've finally been put onto the waiting list for surgery!! I could not be happier, it's been a long fight to finally get this cut out of me..

Early embryo transfer (Day 1 transfer) 2WW
Hi everyone, I don’t hear a lot online about embryo transfers that are done early on. So it’s hard to know whether I should be expecting an early pregnancy test to work or not. This round of IVF I ended up with 1 embryo so my clinic put it straight back in the day it fertilised. The cycle before

Flare Strategy?
After having a flare 4 months ago and going from 4.5 mg to 10 for a week, then dropping back to 5.5 for 5 weeks, I have now tapered down to 5mg, where I have been for 10 weeks. My doctor seems fine with my staying at 5 for awhile longer. Three days ago and coinciding with much colder weather, I experienced

Tummy pain after laparoscopy
Hi. I had a laparoscopy after finding out that I had a large ovarian cyst on my left ovary. It measured 10cm (the size of a grapefruit!) I had my surgery last Tuesday so 1 week today! When they went in for the surgery the cyst was gone (I couldn’t believe it when she told me!) It had burst & dispersed

Help!
I'm at the end of my tether. I'm 74 and have had UTIs since 16 - usually 1-2 a year, easily treated. A couple of years ago they were getting more frequent and GP gave me standby px for Macrobid and with this I've managed to self treat at the 1st symptom. 5 months ago I had a bad flare up which took several
