Cataract surgery
I often read the experiences on CLL shared by our group on HealthUnlocked, and it's reassuring. I was diagnosed with CLL in 2013. After a long period of watch and wait (W&W), I was given only 2 cycles of chemo (BR) in 2019 instead of the planned 6 cycles due to severe side effects. Fortunately, I experienced

Concerns with taking Reclast
I am 55 and was diagnosed with osteoporosis in December 2023 ( spine -3.4, femoral neck -2.8, total hip -1.6). Had a DEXA to get a baseline before starting medication for breast cancer. I was diagnosed with breast cancer in August, had surgery, radiation and I’m now on Tamoxifen for 5 years. Reclast

Had anyone who is on low dose aspirin for life, found their iron levels have dropped. Went for pre assessment for total knee replacement a few weeks before Christmas and blood test showed my iron levels had dropped, so now going for iron infusion at local hospital this afternoon. Looking back on past

Newbie and confused. Functional B12 deficiency?
Hi everyone, I am new here but I have been a member of the thyroid forum for many years. I've also just joined the Sjogren's and the lupus groups because some of my symptoms could be attributed to these though I have no diagnoses, and the Changing Faces group for my rhinophyma. I have Hashi's and thyroid

What to do when denosumab course ends?
I have been on denosumab injections since July 2019, so the injection that I am to have next month will probably be my last. During this time I have not had a Dexa scan at all. I am under "shared care" between my GP and the hospital, which is in practice a complete joke, as I have to dairy it, order

i‘m done. I can‘t do this amymore
Don‘t comment about your products or paid advertisements, I just want ADVICE. Which diets make me lose weight the fastest? Before you say "that shouldn‘t matter, it should be healthy" yes, true. But I‘m wasting time. I‘ve been involuntarily holding my weight FOR A MONTH and I don‘t know how and why.

Results Advice Please
A brief bit of information first. Last year I was diagnosed with cancer, resulting in major surgery in June and a long recuperation. (I have been told 12 months is not unusual) I had just started to feel much more normal when I went to the GP for an unrelated matter. She asked how I was, I said I still

6 months ago i injured my knee.Only just had scans and test. Found a fracture that has healed and injured my meniscus too. Please tell me I will get back to work. I have refused surgery as the worst case senario is a slight limp and developing arthirits. Has anyone else had similar. I am going crazy

Needle size for Surgery injections?
Yesterday I had my 3 monthly B12 jab and was rather taken aback to be injected in the shoulder with a 21G 1 1/2 “needle which was quite painful unlike when I self inject with 25G x 1” needle. I don’t remember needles being this large in the past and wondered if this is common practice to draw from ampoule

Does anyone know how long surgery is from your MDT meeting?
Hi warriors, I've just had my results from my MDT meeting. I've got to have a consent/discussion consultation and another with a bowel consultation incase I need a stoma. My question is, does anyone have a time scale of when they got surgery after the MDT meeting. I'm under Cambridge team. Thankyou
