Experiences with

Mastectomy

Hi last year had 3 cystectomies removing 11 tumors from my bladder, the biopsies show that it has not spread and next treatment is BCG 6 week course.

Dear baby HOPE, We met each other 11 years ago now – it was literally love at first sight and honestly, when you are older I will tell you the full story! Daddy had been married before and he had what they call a vasectomy – this meant that when I met him he wasn't able to have children – he had never

Hi all, I am 2 days post lap and I thought I'd share my experience of the procedure/recovery. I'm surprised to say that I feel pretty good! I'm tired and sore but that's to be expected. The laparoscopy went ok, though apparently the back of my womb, bowel and vagina were all full of endo adhesions so

My mom (age 45) has undergone mastectomy in april 2013 on her left breast. After regular checkups and followups she is recently diagnosed with ER/ PR Negative and Her 2 positive (3plus) The same is confirmed by doing lungs biopsy, and pet scan.

Started with breast cancer & mastectomy, won that fight. But live with & got used to pain from it. Other symtoms lead to be diganoised with sle, Sjogrens, Raynards & other ailments due to Lupus. Learning to live with that.

I have been receiving 1 to 1 support on here for a few weeks now but I'm braving writing something on the board. I had pp after my second daughter was born 11 years ago. I spent time in a mum and baby room off a mixed psych ward. No one ever discussed with me anything about my pp (that I can remember

Hi all First appointment over, scan was fine no where near as bad as expected. Nurses just lovely too. Have to self fund due to vasectomy and retrieval booked in 3rd March. If this is successful how long would it be until I start on the icsi side of things? Hope all are ok Holly x

I had first episode of PAF immediately after surgery (mastectomy) six months ago. Since then I’ve had episodes about once every 7 -14 days. They are getting longer, now 14 hours instead of 2-3 hours.

Hi all I called ACU at Halifax yesterday and spoke with a lovely lady. I explained that we are so not sure if DH even has an sperm as its 23 yrs since vasectomy and told her we were worried that we are going to be told that there is no hope. As our first appointment was to start at the beginning etc

Joshi advised me 4 rounds of neo-adjuvant chemo-> surgery (most likely mastectomy coz tumor size is relatively higher- apprx 5.1cm X 3cm ; but will be accessed post 4th chemo)> radiation + 4 rounds of adjuvant chemo. She said, the chemo suggested by Dr.

Hi All Happy New Year to everyone We are booked for our first appointment at Halifax on the 21st January and I am so worried! We spent all Christmas talking about 'what if' and now I am just thinking about it all of the time. What if they tell us that as he had his vasectomy nearly 20 years ago there

The shock of being told that although it's non invasive but still may need a mastectomy has really thrown me. It's been a week since the diagnosis and I feel like I'm in a daze.

hi all. firstly happy new year to you all. i am from the UK and looking into IVF or ICSI treatment for myself and husband. my partner had a vasectomy nearly 13 years ago and unfortunately can not have it reversed due to surgical mess up. we are both desperate to have children and have been looking into

BTW, 2 years ago I had a double mastectomy and removed every fragment of silicone infected tissue from my breast implants. My Lupus improved 70% immediately after.

hi ive recently had a double mastectomy and reconstruction using implants and stratis.

I was diagnosed with breast cancer 3 1/2 years ago and had to undergo a double mastectomy. I am now undecided as to whether or not to have reconstruction surgery as it's such a big op and at the moment am quite happy to live as a flattie.
