Dentists in times of Covid
He said that I should have it extracted at the Kings Hospital dental department as that was where I had my
ICD
/pacemaker inserted last November. He 'phoned me that night to say he had referred me. I didn't get an appointment before lockdown, in fact, no communication at all.

Intro to me
Ive had 2 cardiac arrests since then and have an implanted cardiac difibulator (
ICD
). Im only 34. I worry each day will be my last and that I will die in fear. I dont have a religion so Ive been told that people cease to exist when they die. This terrifies and depresses me.

Second opinion
Hello. I was diagnosed with stage 1 endo via Lap in Nov ‘18. Since then I’ve had the Depo injection and now the coil since August last year. Since December I’ve had regular bouts of severe pain, where it literally leaves me on the floor or unable to move. I have pain when I urinate and urinate frequently

Copper coil cause Thrush?
Has anyone experienced long term thrush with the copper coil? I did the 6 months treatment (one pill a week) and whilst on that I was fine, I finished a couple of weeks ago and it's back. It's not full on thrush but enough to be annoying and making me uncomfortable. Its got to be linked with this! The

Update after HF Nurse visit. Could do with a few thoughts if any from you wise people...
.🤷🏽♀️.Didn't seem to know about
ICD
/CRT-D. Instead i have been offered a Heart monitor in about 6 weeks? Shall I get a second opinion..? I don't want to waste money if there is nothing else they can offer. I was basically assessed as having high anxiety with a few palpitations.

Is the coil known to be more effective than the pill?
Hi all, I am a bit confused and wondered if anyone has had the same experience? Why is the Mirena pushed over the pill? My gynaecologist has put me on the Mirena coil that I’ve had now for about 4 months. I am not really enjoying it to be honest and have been having quite a sore stomach and I feel
