Fibrotic Endometriosis
I have had an absolute joke of an endo journey. To cut a long story short - after years of scans, a coil for 'treatment', pain etc... I finally had a lap 1.5 yrs ago and was told i didn't have it - I had an mri a few months after the lap. The consultant wouldn't show me the report, even though I asked

So at 6 weeks I posted about pain to one side, I was finally send to SAU yesterday for bloods and an ultrasound, my back is so tender to touch and they have found a dark spot in my kidney area? They don't know what it is but sent me home with a lot of pain killers and the promise of a CT scan to take

MRI result: no appointment set to discuss my results over two months later. Looking for private consultant recommendations in Surrey area
Hi everyone, It has been two months since I was emailed a very brief description of my MRI results. I have yet to be given an appointment to discuss them. Everytime I ring the gynecologist I am told an appointment has been "requested", which is what I was also told two months ago. The MRI has shown that

Zoladex wearing off??
Hi all, I've been on Zoladex since march last year , last week I had my 16th and final jab. Since January I've been getting alot of the Endo flare ups but they haven't been as intense as previous. So whilst painful I could still function to some degree. Last night however I had some spotting and pain

Walking Munro's with an ICD
Hi, Last year I was given an
ICD
implant and wondering how far I can go with exercise. I have tried to get back running, but struggling a bit. My daughter and I used to walk the Munro's in Scotland, but not sure if the distance or altitude is something a bit too much of a challenge.

Potential ICD
The letter has stated that he's being considered for an
ICD
and he's very stressed about this. Firstly, is there anything he could be doing to improve his ejection fraction or is this something that just reduces in time?

What would you do?
Hi everyone I'm just hoping for some advice. I have a lap booked in June with a general gynaecologist. It is purely diagnostic and won't be doing any excision so I would need another OP down the line. I've just had a long conversation with my GP who has endo herself. She is very firm on me getting the

returning to exercise after recent ICD placement
Good morning Following a VF arrest about 4 weeks ago I’ve now got an
ICD
fitted. Before the arrest I was running 10km every day and going to various exercise classes at our local Sports Centre Being active was sort of my thing.

DOES MEDICARE COVER DEXA SCANS FOR MEN WITH PROSTATE CANCER
I have been searching the internet for the proper
ICD
codes to use for a DEXA scan for males with prostate cancer but can't find any. Has anybody else had a DEXA scan that was paid for by Medicare?

Hysterectomy at 40 no endometriosis
I had my hysterectomy 2 days ago and although I am in pain I'm feeling relieved 😌. My consultant has told me he has found no signs of endometriosis and that my uterus was severely scarred from my 3 c-sections and my coil that had been embedded in my uterus. My bladder was stuck to my uterus and that
