CHEST Pain
For those who have replied and given me advice about 111 and hospital treatment, to my recent post about chest pain thank you, here is the next chapter. Because of the advice and my needing to know what the pain was, I contacted our GP surgery. Around 3,45 pm a doctor rang to ask what the problem was

The ambition is to supercharge human capabilities, treat neurological disorders like ALS or Parkinson’s, and maybe one day achieve a symbiotic relationship between humans and artificial intelligence. “The first human received an implant from Neuralink yesterday and is recovering well,” Musk said in

general anaesthetic with CHD
hello, I wondered if anyone has any information around the risks of a general anaesthetic when you have CHD? I have a mild atheroma in my LAD. I need to have surgery for breast cancer and I’m worried about whether a GA carries more risks for me. I don’t think I’ll see the anaesthetist until shortly before

Retzius Sparing surgeon recommendations
Hello everyone. I’m 49 years old. I was diagnosed with PCa in 2018. It was determined Gleason 3+3 after biopsy, so we decided on Active Surveillance. I checked PSA religiously every 6 months and it hovered around 5 the whole time since the diagnosis. Last year during summer I believe I started experiencing

Few hours to my OHS
Dear all, In about ten hours, I should be on my way to theatre to have my ASD closed via open heart surgery! Strange enough, I feel relatively calm and no tense as all my friends, family and some of my nurses are. 😅 What most used to worry me was the possibility of complications or unexpected

New diagnosis and bad clinic experience
Hi all. After battling through symptoms for years, being dismissed, being referred to every which specialty, I asked for a gynae referral and had an MRI. The consultant unsympathetically told me I have adhesions, my uterus has moved, and an ovary is squished and attached to my colon. So she's recommended

Bowel or endometrioma pain?
Hi I'm hoping someone can shed a bit of light on my pain. I have endo in lots of places in POD on ligaments and my bowel.I also have a 5cm endometrioma. I am down for surgery for hysterectomy as I have adenomyosis and endo extraction. I've opted out of a bowel resection as the waiting list is longer
