Surgery and RA
Hello all, I’m relatively new here and really excited to find a lively and helpful community who know what it’s like to live with RA. I’ve had RA since 2004 and my symptoms are mostly under control with a combination of Benepali and Methotrexate. That was until Jan when I had to come off for a mastectomy

Unilateral Mastectomy Regret
I had a unilateral mastectomy and I regret it everyday. My doctors encouraged me to not remove both because it wasn’t necessary and just because Angela Jolie did it, everyone had started doing it and it didn’t improve “quality of life”. I listened to them. I had no idea how disproportionate I would look

More advice please
Can I ask if anybody S taking Adcal D3 along with Pred? My GP has asked me to consider taking it. It's a calcium carbonate and vitamin D3 chewable obtained under prescription. However it does come with side effects. I am already taking Vitamin d tablets along with calcium from the local health shop daily

Vasectomy
I Had A Vasectomy about 7 years ago, The Operation did not go well and I had chronic bleed inside my scrotum, My scrotum Swelled up the size of a grapefruit, turn all black and blue, it took 90 days to get back to normal. Later I relized that I could not get a woman pregnant and that made me feel less

When can I start running again after laparoscopic cystectomy?
I'm 3 weeks into recovery after my laparoscopic cystectomy, as well as removal of endometriosis and a stent had to be inserted into my ureter as this was crushed by the giant ovarian cysts I had. I feel fine, other than some pain when I wee from my stent in my ureter. However, I am desperate to start

Condoms plus circumcision equals?
So I had a thought or rather experience that made me question the benefit for feeling. Currently uncut, the condom for me glides with the foreskin movement. While not as good as skin on skin obviously the feeling is reduced by adding a barrier. Mark Gungor did a hilarious marriage seminar called "the

Medical Marijuana and RLS
I've had medical marijuana for several years for RLS and restless whole body, and other physical pain. lve tried several different kinds but it doesnt really help me, it just makes me high like it did when l was a kid. However l know how it can help you to relax, which can lessen the anxiety and stress

Hi all, I’m having bilateral mastectomy soon & the surgeon wants me to start oral arnica. I’m on daily dalterparin (& hydroxychloroquine). I know arnica interacts with warfarin but struggling to find out how or if theres any specific interaction with dalterparin. Does anyone have experience or any pointers

Confused
My story started about a little over a half ago when I tested positive for the BRCA 2 gene. I started with mammograms and MRI every 6 months. Had one good mammogram and MRI. Then in January 2020 had a mammogram and a spot showed up. Had a biopsy and came back positive for breast cancer. Was told

Update on my sister
Many thanks to all of you who responded last time I posted a few days ago. My sister has had the results of her biopsy back and her cancer is progesterone and oestrogen positive and her2 negative. Could someone let me know what that means in terms of her treatment going forward. Last time she had BC

Radical prostatectomy successful - now what?
6 weeks after surgery and my recovery has progressed relatively well. My first post-surgery blood test showed my PSA score to be 'undetectable'. My urinary control has been excellent, I'm walking as much as 10 miles at a time without any ill-effects, and I've recently also began incorporating some mild

Has anyone everyone gone through Oncoplastic surgery?
I've just completed my 6 sessions of chemo, and the MRI and scans show no tumors, or if there are any none are visible. I am still being told I will need surgery to remove any/all residual tissue that was the tumor. I was given 3 options: 1) lumpectomy 2) oncoplastic surgery 3) mastectomy. I would

A Christmas to forget.
On the 14 December I got up as usual around 05.00Hrs, walked into my lounge tripped and fell on the hardwood floor. The result: a fractured femur. Somehow I managed to get to a phone to ring 111. After a major operation I was kept in hospital right up to the last day of Dec, simply because I lived alone

I had grade 3 HER2 positive breast cancer in my left breast and had a mastectomy and chemo and herceptine and have been on tamoxifen for 8 years. I am suffering with pain in my bionic boob and very itchy red décolletage which nothing seems to soothe and scratching doesn’t get rid of the itch. Does anyone

Sister with Breast cancer
Hi there my sister has just found out that she has a recurrence of breast cancer and I want to support her as best I can. She was first diagnosed about 15 1/2 years ago and had a lumpectomy and radiotherapy, there was no spread to any lymph nodes at the time. The recurrence is in the same breast but

Just getting started on the merry-go-round.
Hello to everyone; I'm an otherwise healthy and active 73 year-old. After a PSA score of 12.9 and a positive biopsy, I opted for a non-robotic radical prostatectomy from an expert surgeon. This was in early October 2019. To quote from the surgical report, "[i]The final pathology from his radical prostatectomy
