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,

Hi, I've been suffering from long covid for quite a few months now and I had an ECG a couple of weeks ago also saw the Cardiologist who said L. C has caused my heart problems again. I've been getting prep fainting spells every day and breathlessness. I received a letter today saying I have right bundle

Not A lot Been Posted About Tooth Extraction.... TIPS? Thanks so much!
Dad is 78, probably Stage 4-ish with Parkinson's. His family and his neurologist are still working on relieving the psychosis symptoms which began after an unplanned-for, emergency surgery on his broken ankle (fell while gardening). We now have printed handouts to give every doctor, nurse, or surgeon

Bronchiectasis and unrelated antibiotics
Yesterday I had dental surgery to extract a molar because it was fractured ( could that be due to many many events with prednison???), and now I am on antibiotics amoxicilin. Dentist says 6 days or so. In general my peak flow always increases with antibiotics for other reasons (dental, urinary), but

24 hrs Holster test results
So, having had this test done on the last day of November and heard nothing back from my GP I decided to ring the surgery this morning.They told me it is usually around a 5 week wait before they get the results but perhaps ring the hospital. I did this and was then told by the cardio respiratory department

Trigeminal Neuralgia
some few months ago, I wrote about random short head aches last perhaps just a few seconds with many every hour. After many months of trials with corticosteroid, assuming this might be sinus related, the latest MRI shows that a year after surgery (Gamma Knife), the tumour has been pressing on the Trigeminal

Steroid card
I've just received a message from my surgery asking me to download a steroid card to keep on me at all times. I guess this is common practice now. Does this mean no more blue cards?

First consultant’s appointment - any tips?
Hi everyone, After a 5 month wait, I finally have my first (telephone) gynaecologist appointment tomorrow since 2019 for suspected endometriosis. I have never had any surgery or anything to properly prove this yet. I have had 3 ultrasounds this year between February and June, which showed one of my

Multiple fibroids and endometriosis
Hi ladies, I’m in tears right now typing this message, I was recently diagnosed with multiple large fibroids, I also had a surgery for appendicitis but I was diagnosed with endometriosis after the surgery. The pain in my abdomen is excruciating, I feel alone, I am afraid to loose my job if I keep calling

Constipation post C-section - how much prune juice?!
I had my little boy on Monday by CS. I have now not managed to poop since Sunday 🙈 (being a new mum is so glamorous). Likely a combo of opiates during surgery, inactivity etc. Anyway, was prescribed lactulose in hospital and to take at home (home for 24h now) but no dice. Today I added in (what I consider

husband : more surgery
My husband is still in unconcious after a TBI. He has been responding to pain but today starting responding abnormally. They took him for a brain scan and found fluid (not sure if blood or csf) and now want to take him to theatre again and do a procedure to alleviate the pressure. This will hopefully

Shaking and 'nervy'
I've experienced shaking quite a lot since taking steroids for about eighteen months but now I seem to be in a constant nervous state, not "me" at all. I wake up by 5.00 every morning with my heart thumping and feeling shaky. I've tried the usual Rescue Remedy etc. ( but that just makes me cough) I've

endo in mid 40s and questions…
I’m sorry I’ve not posted for so long. I’ve had two surgeries before on my endometriosis and I’m now mid 40s. The last surgery was a good 5 years ago now and I just know it (or something) is back. The old tell tale signs are so frequent. But I wanted to know if any of you lovelies have ever had any
