GI Report and recommedations
Ok so I have the written report from the GI consultant which thank goodness is overall very reassuring. Advice now at recommends continued treatment with dietary changes, frequent and small meals, no spicy and nothing 3-4 hours prior to bedtime. Although in all honesty laying down is not a major issue

Specialist results.
Morning all you beautiful people. Well just a follow up on my last post. I saw my Respiratory specialist at the hospital Chest clinic on Wednesday last, and not sure how I feel at the moment, he has spoken to the doctors at Barts in London and they said I would not benefit from Lung reduction surgery

Remission but suddenly extreme night sweats
I received the good news that I am in complete remission......no cancer cells in my blood.... but unfortunately I was just diagnosed with Gastritis due to the Venetoclax and Aciclovir. It's very painful but after stopping all my cancer medication the stomach pains and diarrhoea are easing off. But

I’ve had Cardio Version 22.3.24 Was told i was back in sinus rhythm GREAT!!! Saturday 23.3.24 late evening everything went haywire racing heart dropping beats which I think I brought on myself by being upset and angry over something. I wished I could control my emotions better! Any way Apple Watch

vitamin deficiencies
I had most of my sigmoid removed because of diverticulitis five years ago. My question is my surgeon said that it should not affect my vitamin or mineral intake because the sigmoid doesn’t involve that. Got on finding that it most certainly does I get a B12 injection because I’m a vegetarian so that

Eliquis and surgery
I will have to go off my Eliquis for several days prior to having surgery on one of my eyes. I am terrified that I may go into AF while off it. Has anyone had to go off their anticoagulant for surgery and had AF without it causing a stroke?

Waiting for results after Hysterectomy
Hello everyone, I had a total laparoscopic hysterectomy ( with conservation of ovaries) at the beginning of this month. I am 40 years old. I had fully expected the surgery to find Endometriosis however there wasn't any. I am now waiting on the pathology test results on what was removed. I am wondering

disappointed with symptoms still after 2 surgeries :(
I’ve recently had 2 surgeries, one in January where they removed a small amount of endo and then a more complex surgery 4 weeks after with a specialist endo surgeon. I’m now 5 weeks post op and still suffering. I think my period might be due soon but not sure as the surgeries had messed things up a bit

Cardiac surgery meds bring PSA down?
My PSA was 1.6 on January 8 of this year. On January 31st I had successful open-heart surgery to repair a heart valve. On March 7th, my next blood test, my PSA had dropped to .5. Has anyone here heard that this sort of drop after surgery is normal? Perhaps there are meds used at that time that could

psa rising
After a second rise in psa from .04 to .21 in three months we decided to meet with a medical oncologist to discuss next steps. I am inclined to get a scan to locate pc but it may be too low. I have had surgery followed by salvage radiation followed by a scan and pelvic radiation so I may have exhausted
