Waiting for diagnosis
Hi everyone I've had a horrible few years and have had one thing after the other and never any positive diagnosis. I'm 58 now and have battled with persistent joint pain for a number of years. Despite numerous tests and appointments with a rheumatoid consultant, the conclusion was that they had no

Thyroid Nodules but gp says blood tests normal........
Hi all I've just joined this forum as I'm discovering that I need to self inform to get somewhere with my health as gp/hospital seem to have let me down so much I'm losing faith. To cut a long story short, for the past few years I've been suffering from recurrent throat infections which have increased

I had a mystery ultrasound!
I had an ultrasound appointment come through and I had no idea why as it is not at the hopsital I am waiting to see gynae at. Turns out my GP requested it. I had a trainee and the supervisor. When they did the standard scan she took a lot of images of my right side near my hip, I know I have a cyst

Pester power works!
Having had a barium enema that showed "no abnormalities and I have no concerns" according to the colo-rectal Consultant I was told I would not be seen until May/June and had put my hopes of a resolution to my ongoing pain into seeing gynae in April. I have called my Consultant's secretary a few times

Any help with left side abdo pain?
I'm hoping someone may recognise my symptoms and be able to give me some ideas. I have left side abdo pain to the left of my belly button and up a bit. This is permanent at a low level but does get worse some days and also just flares as though someone has punched me with no warning. I have been to

Any advice - could this be endo?
Good afternoon. This may be a long post but I am hoping if I put everything out there someone may be able to tell me if anything I have sounds like Endo. I am being pushed from pillar to post by the hospital and am getting desperate. Here goes the life story! October 2012 saw me have some serious

Good news and bad news. Anyone else with P.O.T.S.?
Well, I had good news in that the biopsy on my nodules showed them not to be cancerous and although they still can't find out WHY I constantly cough when eating (they say nodules are too small at around 2cms, to cause the problem) my ultrasounds, barium swallow and endoscopes all show nothing. They

Feel like giving up!
I added a bit to the end of my previous post last night but this morning I honestly feel like giving up. I phoned the General Hospital this morning,where I'm awaiting a thyroid isotope scan. I saw a ENT guy privately yesterday to try and find the cause of my choking on food. One of the things he wants
