Surgery recovery whilst having a physical job
Hi all, I was after some advice regarding surgery recovery. Obviously we all recover differently from surgery, but I was wondering if anyone had any advice who has a physical job. I'm a gardener and I work on an estate, so I do have a HR department etc. just a lot of the advice says you can go back to

Abnormal ECG
So the arrhythmia team contacted me yesterday to discuss the result of my ECG done at my local surgery . Apparently although the test showed an an abnormal pattern with wide QRS it was a minimal deviation and not any form of AF . It could be an age related change but my sinus rhythm was normal and the

A 4 Year Journey
I had a Prostatectomy in July 2020. My PSA was a 5.0 and my Gleason was 3+4. Cancer did not penetrate outer wall of gland. Decipher score was 64.

My Doctor's theory
I have just read the article Research update: Looking for tinnitus biomarkers. Very encouraging and the first evidence that my doctors theory, many years ago, was probably correct. I have had Tinnitus since traumatic surgery aged six. (now 62) Unaware it was abnormal, I was not diagnosed until years

Just Nod If You Can Hear Me
I’m hearing from several doctors and a counselor who swear there are men who have maintained size, resolved incontinence, and restored erectile function (albeit with pills, injections, prosthetics) following nerve sparing radical prostatectomy. When I ask how I can connect with just one of these men

Endometriosis diagnosis and dienogest
Hi, So I had a diagnostic laparoscopy yesterday and the surgeon found endo between my uterus and rectum in the pouch of Douglas. They weren't able to remove it all as some was on my bowel and will need a bowel specialist in a future surgery. They've staged it between stage 3 and 4. He also mentioned
