Any suggestions please.
Hello. I wonder if you would be kind enough to give me your views on my latest results please. I currently take 100mcg thyroxine at bedtime. My GP withdrew my T3 ( 5mcg) around 5 years ago. Apparently it doesn't work and was too expensive. I feel dreadful. I'm underweight with a BMI of 18 and on top

Nailfold infection
I have my second nailfold infection in 2 months - it is proving difficult to resolve and a few days ago a telangectasia bled profusely for no reason. Is this connected to my Systemic Sclerosis or just a coincident. Thanks for any thoughts on this.

endometriosis on uterine artery.
I had my second surgery yesterday. Surgeon removed a lot of endo but was unable to remove it from my uterine artery due to the risk of hysterectomy and we would like to have another baby at some point before I go down this route. I was just wondering if anyone else has this? Were you able to conceive

Fibroscan
Hi, I've posted asking this before, but unfortunately didn't get any response. I'm wondering if anyone can tell me where I can get a private Fibroscan? I'm in the UK. I have been referred to Hepatology due to the surgeon seeing "extensive fibrotic changes" of my liver during gallbladder surgery back

hello, My mum sent me this information with the hopes that I can find support and information as I’m starting out my journey. I had been having irregular periods and lower back pain for a few months. I would take medication and just push on. In December, I had such severe pain I called my husband

Gastric endo - help!
I haven’t posted in the longest time but really need some help. I have extensive disease requiring surgery, thought to be bowel involvement. MRI due in the next week. I’ve been having dreadful constipation the last few weeks requiring manual evacuation (sorry TMI but it has been awful). Then two days

Which Brand B12 NHS injections please ?
My NHS surgery use Gerot Lannach and boy do they sting ! 😲 Had a conversation with the nurse doing the injection today, who is more than happy (.......to the point of being over excited ! ) to fight on our behalf to change to a different, non stinging brand, if I can give her some suggestions of what

Scan shows spreading despite chemo but surgery going ahead..confused 🤔
Hello alI I have stage 4 clear cell carcinoma, had a scan this week and got the results today. My gynae nurse said she could only tell me what was written on a scrap bit of paper which left me with more questions than answers (not impressed with this). I will call again next week but meantime wondered

Private surgery in North East
Hello, I had a ruptured cyst August 2023 while travelling abroad and got emergency surgery in a great hospital. They drained the cyst and while already in there diagnosed deep infiltrating endometriosis, but couldn't remove any of it right then, as none of it was planned. I come back to the UK, get

Omeprazole use
I am a long term user of Omeprazole along with a lot of other meds including aspirin. I had diarrhea at first but it did settle down. In the 80s I had serious ulcer issues resulting in major surgery and had Omeprazole been around then that would not of happened. Acid reflux can cause idiopathic pulmonary

Advice please
Hi everyone, I’m fairly new to this group and was worried about posting but I’m feeling so lost. I am waiting on a diagnostic laparoscopy for potential endo. Pelvic pain started around a year and a half ago. I have had an internal ultrasound which only showed a small intramural fibroid but I was told

my dad has had prostate cancer for a long time. He’s beeen on Lupron and xtandi and some other meds that gave him confusion. At this point he’s 83, it’s in a few ribs, hip (he had hip replacement a few years ago), clavicle, base of skull, spinal areas, spots on lung and liver. I think i covered it all

Holistic tips to alleviate pain
Hi, I would like to know if anyone has any holistic tips to help deal with endometriosis. I have just had an appointment with my gynaecologist, and they strongly recommend I have my second surgery in spring. However, I have asked if this could be delayed as im currently in my final year at university

Reoccurring pelvic pain
Has anyone had a tubo ovarian uterus abscess? I've had this for over a year and now it's causing issues with my bowels and bladder and it's interfering with work, worried about taking more time off. I've been hospitalised twice and put on iv drip. Had so many antibiotics this past year both by drip
