Symptoms of Endo
When considering the symptoms of endo the first thing that springs to mind is that they are seemingly infinitely diverse such that no one woman experiences the same as another, and many peculiar symptoms that are clearly shared by members on groups such as this might not even be documented anywhere in

Should I go to the GP?
I was diagnosed with endometriosis on 10/10/19 via laparoscopy, and had an excision. I also had the Kyleena coil fitted whilst I was under general anaesthetic. Recovery was fine, the first week was very painful, but by the second it had calmed down and I was just tired. Itās now been just over 4 weeks

Driving License Revoked because of ICD implantation ... is that normal?
I had my CRT-D fitted 4 weeks ago. The ICD part as a precaution. No one in my medical team warned me that this could stop me driving - just that I had to inform DVLA. Imagine my shock this morning to receive a letter saying my licence has been revoked and I canāt reapply for at least 6 months!! Has

TAVI aortic valve replacement
My husband underwent a successful operation this week at the new Royal Papworth Hospital in Cambridge. I was amazed when he was allowed home 24 hrs after the op. Although he said it was an ordeal and he is now in some discomfort from the TAVI site in his groin, he is doing well. He had a triple bypass

They said to me if this doesn't work then I will have to consider the coil which I DO NOT want because it genuinely stresses me out and I really need method

Hormonal coil fitted - still getting abdominal cramps
Hi, I had the hormonal coil fitted 8 weeks ago and still getting abdominal cramps. Is this normal? It's the first time of having a coil and I'm struggling to get into the sexual health clinic to get it checked and my own doctors just say I need to go to the sexual health clinic! Thank you.

Unsure if I should have a laparoscopy
Hi, I have an operation date for a laparoscopy but I can't decide if this is something I should do or not. I have suffered from heavy bleeding and pain for 9 years since I had children. I am worried that they might damage my bladder or bowel and I will be worse off than I am now. I have endometriosis
