Mirena coil hatred
Hi, I had a mirena coil in for 8 months since my c section....and it came out on sat. I was so happy because I hate it. I just rang the hospital department to ask about a different contraceptive and they said I have no choice but another coil. I cried on the phone to her. Is this definitely the only

Marijuana and mental disorders treatment
While the use of cannabis has been linked primarily to the cause of mental illnesses, particularly the cause of psychoses, the therapeutic potential for mental illnesses has long been hidden. That has changed significantly in recent years. Recent research shows the enormous potential of cannabinoids

Backpacking after ICD Fitted
After rehab etc, I would like to resume multi day hikes (Caminos) and wondered if anyone has any experience of wearing a backpack after having an
ICD
fitted. I'm thinking predominantly about location of shoulder strap being close to site of
ICD
. Any input gratefully received Frank

Here we go again... back to square one?
I have finally been referred to a Gynaecologist and after a few months on the waiting list, I was able to have my consultation in February this year. As my endo symptoms are under control (no coil, no hormones, just taking phototherapy), we agreed on just having regular ultrasound scans every 3 months

Hi. New to this group and so relieved to have somewhere to go for ppl who understand! I'm mid 40s and had a laparoscopy about 8 yrs ago. Drs made me feel I was overreacting but were surprised to find more endo than they thought. I never had heavy periods but v painful. Would wake at night in such pain

Useless Consultants
Has anyone else had a useless consultant? Had my telephone appointment told her all my 20 year history again( she hadnāt looked at my notes as she couldnāt find them) then proceeded to tell her that Iāve had a 6 week bleed, constant pain and now a throbbing/stabbing pain near my right ovary. The response

Am I giving a wrong self diagnosis or is this a genuine cause for concern?
Hi, Iāve always had really heavy, irregular and long periods that causes pain to the point where I am nearly passing out, but recently this has worsened. I have had an IUD put in which I know can cause heavier, longer and more painful periods, however I had this inserted a year and a half ago and I am

Copper coil fitted for 3 years now. Never any problems until now.
My period as never been more than 2 days late in the last 3 years. But I'm now 10 days late and no sign of it coming. Has this happened to anyone before??

Went to the gp and they removed it Had it taken out and started the pill but not doing much for my pain symptoms. Really stuck as to keep on

Cardiac MRI
Hello my fellow BHF friends Iāve just had a call from Guys and St Thomas hospital telling me I need to have a cardiac MRI scan tomorrow. Iāve read the notes attached to the email theyāve just sent.......š³ to say I am nervous is an understatement! 1 hour and 30 minutes in the scanner, cannula fitted
