Kirk to Enterprise - I have a communicator
I've just been back to Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital yesterday after having my
ICD
implanted on 19th August for an initial check to see that everything is OK and to be given my home monitor, which on the box declares itself to be a communicator, hence the title of this post.

Bio Oil
Just gone online to get some Bio Oil to put on my scar after having an
ICD
fitted. The product is on Limited Time Deal of £9.99 for 200 mls, normally over £20. I know we can't mention companies, but as a clue this company is named after a big river! Get yours now while stocks last!

I had a fall
Full length, battered and bruised but unbroken. Stripped pine floors are attractive but not cushioning. I’ve long determined to downsize when Blue shuffles off his doggy coil. There are many attractive apartments for independent over 60s close by. They have emergency alarm cords in case. My current

Pain with the coil
Ok so I have been on my period non stop for over a year, I am 20 years old with bo children and always had heavy periods. I had the coil fitted about a month ago as it's one of my last options to stop my periods as noone knows why its constant. However, the night I got my coil (marina) fitted, I was

Dating others with OCD?
My partner and I separated and she told me to leave our apt. over my OCD. Now I live alone and have been celibate for a few years. I want to first meet friends then maybe date but do not want to engage with those that don’t respect, believe, or accept my condition. Has anyone found luck dating another

Different pills! Help!
Going to the doctors Monday to try getting a different pill, can anyone advise me on what you found helped. When I was first diagnosed years ago I tried microgynon, the mini pill and cerazette. All of them sent me into an angry, emotional, depressed awful person. I went off hormones for a good few

Bleeding on mini pill
I was diagnosed with endometriosis at the beginning of this year and had a laparoscopy in July (had a large chocolate cyst on my right ovary drained). I didn’t want a coil fitted and opted to try out birth control. I was given Rivegidon which gave me heart palpitations, period pain for a whole month

Back to Cardio Rehab
The rehab staff knew I was having an
ICD
implanted in August and said I'd be referred back to rehab for some further sessions after the procedure. My
ICD
was implanted on 19th August in Liverpool Heart and Chest Hospital, and the rehab team made contact on 22nd August.

Constant pain but GP says live with it!
I’m sorry to post again but I’m at the end of my tether! I’m going to give a list of symptoms and please let me know what you think as GP has said investigations show nothing so live with the pain. I’ve always had had very heavy, painful periods but my mother told me not to be a baby so I thought it

I feel like I was on a rollercoaster trying to conceive, then
