low immunoglobulins and knee replacement
I’m contemplating total knee replacement. My concern is that my immunoglobulins have sunk below normal range - but not low enough to start infusions. Has anyone else had to consider this? What recommendations were made to you? Did you go ahead with surgery? Did you have complications? So much to think

Pregnancy: Stage 4 endometriosis and some adenomyosis
Hi All I am wondering if there’s anyone who has had a successful pregnancy, despite having stage 4 endometriosis and some adenomyosis, with no surgery involved? I would like to know if it’s possible for inspiration. Thanks for your time.

Pred dose post hip operation
Hi, and thank you in advance to all who have the patience to read this long story, and the kindness to offer advice: I have so many things going on at the moment! Currently, PMR seems like the least of my problems, and I’m hoping I can ride the other medical turmoil I’m in without it raising it’s head

Advice - cysts and TTC
Just posting to see if anyone has been in the same position or can offer any advice! I had surgery last June where they found stage 4 endo. I had 2 large chocolate cysts one on my left around 8cm and the one on my right 10cm. The surgery wasn’t done in a endo centre which now I realise probably should

Pericardial Window
I had my 2cd thoracentesis. It was more painful and for a very long time. They did drain a little more 950 ml. I am waiting for a thoracic surgery appointment. We will discuss possible placement of a pleural catheter for drainage, possible pleurodesis. And something new: turns out a lot of the chest

A Clinical Trial saved my Life ..12 years a Survivor of Advanced Metastatic Prostate Cancer, Stage 4.
When Alfred Samuels was diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer in 2012, it felt as if his world had fallen apart overnight. Doctors said surgery wasn’t an option for him because the cancer had spread beyond his prostate, and he started to lose hope. But then he joined a clinical trial and began treatment

Frustrated, and left in limbo....
Tough times are here chez CB. Had a letter from the Department for Work and Pensions (UK). No disability allowance for me. To be fair, I don't consider myself disabled, but .... well lets put it like this. My hands are swollen like two balloons. (pink floyd reference!) I can't cook (i haven't cooked

Can I have sex before a laparoscopy
Hi, I am having my laparoscopy on Tuesday and was wondering if anyone knew about being able to have sex before surgery? Is there a certain amount of time before that I should stop? Any answers for this would be amazing.

diverticulitis incontinence
Diverticulitis hot of nowhere. I fell down the stairs, was life flighted to UH main Campus, and had multiple Harkin’s procedures. Gutted thrice, like a catfish. I’ll be with ostomy for rest of my life. It’s been 40 days. Weak as a kitten I’m just in to rehab but still draining. They equipped me

Finally spoken to endocrinologist 1st in 20+ years
Got to chat with the endocrinologist (not the one I'd hoped for after seeing list on Thyroid UK) I had to really concentrate as English not her 1st language but we managed to have an in depth chat over the phone. Anyway my doctor referred me as didn't want to put my levo up from 100 to 125mcg luckily

Thought it was a flare but......
Have been slow, fatigued, in increase pain and stiff over the last 3+ days. Have written to my rheumy asking for a more appropriate px. Didn't mention flare as I hadn't quite realised until yesterday. Increased my pred yesterday and today by 5mg (taking me to 15, she px'd me 9 back in December).

Lowered CA125 and a nugget of hope 🙏
After 2 chemo sessions of carbo & taxol plus Avastin, my blood test level has reduced from 750 to 586 which is the first positive news I have received since diagnosis mid December 👏 it has given me a huge boost! My CT scan is Tuesday 20 Feb to see if my huge mass has shrunk enough for surgery, if so
