#WellnessWednesday What's the deal with TMS for OCD?
Hey everyone, If there's one thing we get a lot of questions about, it's TMS. YES! Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation. If you haven't heard this term before, here is a quick explanation of what TMS is:
TMS is a non-invasive way of “stimulating” (or changing) activity in the brain using magnetic fields

Really need some opinions here...
Hi y'all hope you're having a great day!! So I went to a new psychiatrist (last one retired) to talk about starting on medication and since I was there, I decided to ask for a diagnosis (I have obsessive thoughts, tics, social anxiety...) Well... First of all she said she doesn't like to put "tags"

Mirena Coil flipped upside down & embedded
Hi, has anyone been through something similar? So it has now been 3 attempts to remove my coil. Today they tried as a hysteroscopy with local anaesthetic, 20 mins in and in so much pain they gave up. When they had one last look with the camera they noticed the coil and flipped upside down, strings wrapped

Missing Mirena coil
Hello I’m wondering if anyone can help. I had a procedure on Saturday to remove a fibroid and to remove my Mirena coil. After the procedure the nurse advised that the marina coil wasn’t there. Yesterday I received a letter to say that I’d been discharged from the gynaecologist. This morning I called

ICD implant does it impact other types of surgeries
My dad had an
ICD
implant last October and he’s awaiting a hip replacement operation, does anyone know if a cardiologist needs to be present during the op and or do they need to consider /prepare anything different when you have an
ICD
fitted and have other surgery procedures.

All of a sudden, a menstrual cycle after 10 years?
