Tybon Henning Liothyronine
I have been taking this particular liothyronine for many years alongside my levothyroxine and now have been told by the pharmacy that it is no longer available. Could anyone on here please confirm this is the correct information I have been given? I had this particular brand as it was lactose free and

Tips on Disc Surgery Recuperation?
I had C4/5 disc replacement surgery 6 months ago, after suffering severe myelopathy for 3 years. Recovery has been brutal and I’m experiencing neurological symptom I never had before the surgery. I have the antibody type PA and I’m wondering if anyone else has had experience self-injecting B12 in a

Psa is back
Well I made it to 27 months of upsa testing after my surgery and went from <0.01 to my first detectable of 0.01. Don’t know what this means but I guess the next few upsa tests will be telling. Maybe a lab variation maybe not.

Waiting for laparascopic Hysterectomy but struggling with womb and bowel symptoms
Hello everyone, I hopefully have a date next month for a laparoscopic Hysterectomy - waiting for confirmation in writing. Have been waiting for nearly 2 years on NHS. I am age 40, living in Scotland. I had none of these Gynae issues until about 3 years ago. Since then, I have had heavy bleeding, cramps

thyroid and high blood pressure
Hi all So have been struggling to get a GP appointment to discuss my Thyroid meds. After MUCH sulking from me my medication was reduced to 75mcg from 100. Although I managed to hold out for 100 whilst I was on holiday- feel not so good so have been trying to get my meds reinstated. This since end

Should one asymptomatic and isolated AF episode be medicated?
Hi Forum. At my pre op assessment (for hip surgery) last Monday the ECG showed AF. No symptoms at all, I walk my dogs +/- 4 miles daily. My BP machine shows normal resting heart rate and BP. So on strength of one ECG my GP has prescribed anticoagulant tabs which I know is for the AF risk of clotting.

treatment without surgery
hi, I’m new on here. First sorry to read and see what you are all going through, you are all very strong and brave. It’s my mum that has ovarian cancer stage 4, had 6 rounds of chemo then surgery - however the surgeon couldn’t operate as there was too much cancer to remove. My question is, has anyone

Should I be worried about this pain after laparoscopy?
hi all, I had a laparoscopy in the middle of January with an endo and adenomyosis diagnosis and excision as well as insertion of the mirena coil. For the past two weeks or so I’ve been getting really intense pelvic pains. It seems to come in waves almost like cramps but is really painful around the

Worth seeing NHS gynaecologist after private surgery?
Hello, I still feel quite new to understanding endo and been fortunate to have had a short journey so far although I don’t know what to expect for the future. I started having really painful periods around the start of 2023 (was previously on the pill since my teens) and had already been suffering with

DOAC - changes
Some time ago, I started Rivaroxaban but stopped due to side effects. Was switched to Apixaban but had more (different) side effects from that. My GP was very helpful and suggested Edoxaban. It appears that the choice of DOAC is as much random rather than individually considered for the patient! At

Out of interest......what were you initially (mis)diagnosed with?
I'm just wondering what people were initially misdiagnosed with? When I was at my most unwell my GP at the time wanted to diagnose me with Fibromyalgia. I was adamant it wasn't that, and would not accept that diagnosis. Another GP at the surgery was talking about going down the MS route. That was until

Major surgery and a Vasovagal event
I’ve been taking 5mg pred for a while. Reduced to 4.5 and after a few weeks began to feel unwell. I told my doctor who said go back on to 5mg. I then went into hospital last week. I had gluteal reconstructive surgery. The anaesthetist suggested I should increase my pred. So I did the sick day rule and

Surgery Today!
I’m having spinal surgery today in my neck. So glad it’s finally happening but rather nervous too. I have cervical stenosis and myelopathy so I’m hoping this operation will stop the progression of spinal cord damage 🤞🏻🤞🏻🤞🏻. Has anyone else had this happen. Not sure if it’s RA related or not.

Low blood pressure and Endo

Hi the next installment, I got admitted as planned and the operation went well, the surgeon had to change from keyhole to open surgery as something wasn't quite right so it took a bit longer than expected about 4hrs 30. Woke up in HDU feeling like a double decker bus had run over and to be honest I am

Small hernia
I have Stage 3 low grade ovarian cancer and had debulking surgery 18 months ago. I got over the surgery very quickly and have been very lucky with no recurrence so far. Yesterday I saw my Oncologist who said she had found a small hernia but I should carry on as normal but avoid heavy lifting. I’m

cataract surgery and prednisolone dose
This morning I had my eyes tested. This time last year I was told I had the beginnings of a cataract in my left eye, due to prednisolone. Today I was told that, thanks to prednisolone, the cataract is now ready for surgery. I said I didn't want it yet, because I am trying to get my prednisolone dose
