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.

Update and advice please - new blood results
Given I have congenital heart defects, had two open heart surgeries and have an
ICD
in situ the cholesterol level scares me even more so than it ever did, even though it was already cause for concern. My endo has suggested more vit D, and increasing my Levo to 75mg.

Don’t know anymore
I just don’t know what’s wrong with me. I just feel so unstable. I’m waiting on a call from a mental health team that I’ve been waiting on since the 8th of December. I have severe anxiety and panic disorder. I now struggle with what I think is major depressive disorder. I also have ocd and obsessive

Discomfort from ICD fitted five months ago
Hi Has anyone here had to have the
ICD
refitted? DH says he is in constant pain from the implant site and it is stopping him from taking walksoutside the house since he gsts random shooting pains - not at every step, but bad enough to make him want to avoid it.

Visanne - where do I buy it?
Hi all, I was recently diagnosed via lap in Oct (Stage 2). I can't handle Progesterone-only or the combined pill because I have had migraines with both, so bizarrely; my consultant has prescribed Visanne (another progesterone?!) as a last option as I won't get the coil. She told me that the NHS won't

Lost and with little hope
I have been bleeding for 14 days. I was diagnosed with endometriosis after having a laparoscopy for a cyst on the 19th of September. They found widespread endometriosis and the 30 mins intended for the surgery lasted 3 and a half hours. Since then I have been put on the pill. It worked until 14 days

Am I imagining things?
Does anyone else get flu like symptoms before your period is due to start? I have a coil but it's not working too well now and so get a few symptoms again now and getting a drs appointment due to covid is nigh on impossible. I have been doing lateral flow and pcr tests to check symptoms recently but

Coil removal
I’m looking at getting the coil removed soon to try to get pregnant. I’m anxious about this as I’ve had to go to the hospital for a ultrasound as the nurse couldn’t see the strings during a recent check up. All is fine with the coil but I’m wondering if anyone can reassure me?! Also, any advice for trying

Heart Failure diagnosis and pacemaker/ICD
As of 3 days ago, it was 20 and was therefore yesterday given a pacemaker and
ICD
. Does anyone have any experience of this. Ideally with heart failure and a similar EF since I understand that heart failure will only get worst. Thank you

Endo pain with mirena 12 months on
Hi, I was diagnosed with stage 2 endometriosis November 2020 with a laproscopy. The endometrial tissue was removed, and I was placed on the Mirena coil to reduce my estrogen production. The first 6 months of the mirena coil was not nice, the pain was so bad we worried it was leftover endometrial tissue
