I have lately been to the DRs with my open heart scar.. The top and bottom of the scar is oozing yellow pus, which has been dressed. Since noticing the oozing I have also noticed the left side of my breast, back and chest is very painful and uncomfortable especially in the morning and evenings. I don

Got some cholesterol readings, I don’t quite understand them.
Hi all, I had a blood test this week for liver function and the results included a cholesterol read out. The GP surgery sent me a text to say all the readings were normal. Trouble is I’m 4 months or so post quadruple CABG following Nstemi heart attack in July, am I considered normal on the same scale

Possible carotid artery problem discovered 3 weeks after double heart bypass surgery.
My hubby has been home for 2 weeks after his bypass surgery, and because of an ongoing vision problem, it's now suspected that his carotid artery also has blockage(s) and clots are happening. He's going to have an ultrasound urgently. Poor man, still very much recovering from surgery. Is this familiar

Will SE end?
I finished 9 weeks of RT 10 days ago. Stage 2-3 pc. On monthly Eligard. The SE have been on/off diarrhea, managed by immodium and on/off urination problems. I am recording the times of my nightime trips to monitor my sleep cycles. I get up about 6 times per night to pee - about every 100 minutes. I

Pelvic Congestion Syndrome
Hi, I had a laporoscopy on Saturday and despite all the symptoms I’ve had since I was 14 (I’m now 32), they found no endometriosis. I felt so emotional and confused at first when he told me because all the typical symptoms suggested endo and I thought not only would I finally have an answer but some

post period pain
hi all, I had laparoscopy last week and was recovering fine, just took some paracetamol for the first few days. Then my period came and it bam, it feels like someone is stabbing me in the ovary, waking me up at night. It’s so painful. I didn’t have severe pain before surgery, I was dianosed after years

Endometriosis surgery with pelvic floor dysfunction
Hello all, I’m writing to see if anyone here who has pelvic floor dysfunction has also had endometriosis surgery? I’ve been getting Botox injections every 6 months to my very tight pelvic floor muscles, which has helped with my chronic pelvic pain. But I’ve also been clinically diagnosed with endometriosis

Which option for surgery
My dad has been waiting for open heart surgery for a valve replacement for 2 years. He is now faced with a second option, TAVI, rather than open heart. Does anyone have any experience or helpful advice? We are researching for him so that he can make an informed decision. Any help would be greatly appreciated

PSA post Salvage Radiation
Prior post: My husband, at diagnosis had 3+4 on a couple of samples and chose to have surgery. He had clean margins and reached undetectable PSA after Prostatectomy. Near the end of 5th year after surgery his PSA became detectable. He did salvage radiation at .09 PSA. His PSA went down to .08 after

Family struggles and my mental health
I feel overwhelmed because I am currently in college and unfortunately have to return home for the holidays. I am also having surgery during the holidays. I don't want to go back home. Living with my family is not safe for me. I need to feel like I can get through living with them for those few weeks

Foraminotomy
has anybody had a posterior endoscopic foraminotomy? In particular for bone spurs. I could be looking at this surgery once injections have been exhausted. Would be interested in hearing from people about how they found it, did it work, and crucially what was your post op experience like, pain levels,
