The results of the scan showed no evidence for lung cancer. However, it did confirm "evidence of coronary

lapararoscopy
I have a complex cyst probably 7.2-7.4cm and have been told that I will need eventual laparascopy. I am back 23rd of July again for another tvultrasound to check how it is. The gynae/surgeon has done watchful waiting with me since my diagnosis as he knows I am a carer for my mum and I have no one else

2 weeks post hysterectomy
I was scheduled to have a robotic laparoscopic hysterectomy and some endometriomas and any other endometriosis removed. This was supposed to take no more than two hours and be a day case when the surgeon opened me up he found that the endometriosis was way more widespread than initially thought I had

No period after endo excision
Hi, I had a cystectomy in 2018 to remove a large cyst from right ovary. Surgeon advised no endometriosis as this was a concern due to family history. Fast forward to 2023, severe pain again. Send for scans, further large cysts were found again in my right ovary. When I had catch up with GP she advised

Do we have to have a laproscopy?
Hi all, I've been referred for an emergency laproscopy for my pain. I suspect endometriosis. But the bigger Q is: do I need the surgery? I guess yes if it can remove the endometriosis and relieve the pain, but is it necessary for being treated for pain? I feel like I need a diagnosis to be taken seriously

Hi all. I have Lymphodema in both my legs. I had total knee replacement 4 weeks ago, my knee is swollen and my lower leg and foot is is swollen. My skin is very dry in those areas. Obviously, I have swelling because of the surgery but also because of the Lymphoedema so decided to get back to my ritual

I painted three versions of this mixed media work, being drawn repeatedly to the reference photograph. It is a place called Cwmtudu (pronounced Coom-ti-di to my American and, I imagine, most of my English friends here), and here we are looking down jnto the valley from a rocky outcrop on some clifftops

Eye surgery
my doctor told me he wants to do surgery on my eye to straighten out a crease on the retina membrane. At the same time he said he will do a procedure that might eliminate the need for the injections I’ve been having for AMD. is anyone familiar with this?
