Really depressed. New to this side.
**trigger warning** Hi, I joined this group to see if I can receive some help and try to help others if I can. I have social anxiety, GAD, OCD, TS and I'm feeling really depressed this past weeks... I'm taking 50mg of sertraline for OCD and it kinda help with the obsessive thinking. I really feel

Cyst pain - do i need to worry it’s ruptured?
Hey all, Had a laparoscopy in October removing endo from my pelvis and a coil fitted. A few weeks later I was having agonising pain so referred for an ultrasound to check my coil was in the right place, and it was but they found a 5cm cyst on my right ovary which had either grown super fast or been

How to decide whether to have a hysterectomy
Hi, I'm newly diagnosed with stage 4 endo including 6 cm cyst and endo on anterior rectal wall. I've seen a private Dr who has advised I'd need surgery rather than just trying hormone treatment and my options are either a lap to remove what they can or a full hysterectomy. I'm 45, so fertility isn't

Experience with the Mirena Coil for Endo
Hello, After not getting on with side effects of Prostap, my gynae is proposing to trial the Mirena Coil. I'm due to have it fitted at the end of this month. I've heard mixed reviews - from horror stories (re side effects) to success stories! I just wondered if anyone who's had the coil could share

Nadolol side effects
I had a total of 5 SCAs In June this year and now have an
ICD
fitted. My recovery was going slow but well on Propanolol 40mg TID until it was switched to Nadolol 80mg a week ago. Now I feel worse than when I left hospital! No energy, stomach issues, and very depressed.

Total hysterectomy without HRT?
Hi, I had a total hysterectomy three weeks ago for severe endometriosis and adenomyosis. I have been offered oestrogen HRT but I’m reluctant to use it because of the endometriosis and bad reactions to the pill and coil in the past. I am trying herbal remedies and don’t feel too bad. Can anyone tell

Newly diagnosed and needing help
Hi, I was diagnosed with a 6cm cyst which they thought might be cancer but now they're saying it's endometriosis. The gyne unit at the hospital have said they'll put me on the "very long" waiting list to see the endo team - in the meantime I should take paracetamol when the pain is bad and consider

Mini Pill vs Hormonal Coil
When will the mini pull become affective. I’ve been on the mini pill for about 3 1/2 months after being discharged from hospital and I’m bleeding everyday. I’ve been passing large clumps of tissue and clots the size of my hand. The pain is still there and I’m constantly exhausted as I’ve been bleeding

Anybody had an ICD removed for personal reasons?
I have had my
icd
for around 2.5 years now (I have inherited hypertrophic cardiomyopathy!) and really don’t get on with the
ICD
. I feel it is unnecessary as it has never administered any therapeutic shocks or picked anything up particularly shocking (pardon the pun!)

Coil
Hi all, just in two minds whether to have a coil fitted in. Can you tell me where you had yours done I.e sexual health clinic within the hospital or just a local gp/clinic. my specialist recommended to get it within the hospital as the nurses are better at inserting.
