max inhaler dose?
Hi everyone. I saw the hospital respiratory team about a month ago, who said that it is ok to take 5 puffs rather than the suggested max 4 puffs Fostair 200/6, as a kind of last resort before prednisolone. I’ve taken a lot of steroids this year and am trying to reduce the number of courses. However,

Terrified at thought of laparoscopy
I found out earlier in the week that my recent ultrasound scan picked up a large endometrioma on my right ovary. Because of the cancer risk, GP referred me to the gynaecologist through the 2 week wait, and I was told to expect surgery. I have a huge fear of hospitals and anything medical. It took me

urethral constriction
Had chemo and then cystectomy 10 years ago. Last few years, kidney stones then UTIs, until lithotripsy for the stones. But have urethral constriction, so every 4 month I have stents put through my stoma. Has anyone heard of, or had the procedure done for the constriction using Optilume? Supposedly

Prostrap experiences please. Also returned endo pain after a bowel resection advice
In june this year I had excision surgery for stage 4 endometriosis including a bowel resection. I was pain free for about 2 months then unfortunately it came back in my bowels and flare ups are more frequent. I met with my specialist this week and she wants me to go onto Prostap injections for at least

repeat prescription via NHS app
Today is day 20 of my monthly Levo prescription. I used to order two weeks before running out but the surgery got funny about it and said I can only order a week before running out so I make sure I order on day 20. Using the NHS app to request repeat prescription this morning it failed to go through

PSA slightly rose after 8 months undetectable
I am 57 and on ADT (Firmagon+Zytiga+Prednisone) after surgery in 2022 and 39 sessions of RT in 2023 (Jan Feb). Till now I has been undetectable but at November my bloodwork showed PSA risen to 0.04. Should I be concerned or could it be just random fluctuation? Thanks for your reactions.

I have been taking T3 since Oct 2019 because I felt so ill, tired, hair loss, dry skin, muscle and joint problems. With the help of much advice on here I started taking supplements

Well I did a good one.
Sunday night ai fell while putting my chickens away. Got into an orthopedic dr on thursday. Surgery on friday for a broken shoulder. Ouch. I was supposed to get 2 screws and a plate. I ended up getting 11 screws and a plate. The only good news about this, is it is my left side and I am right handed

stockists
Does anyone know the best stockists for bras for people who have had surgery and have lymphoedema in one or both arms. I find if I have a good fitting bra it moves the fluid along and arms fit better in my clothing.

Acalabrutinib- stopping before surgery and possible side effects.
I have more skin cancer. I’ve been on Acalabrutinib for a year. I believe I will have to stop taking it for a few days before and after surgery. Are there any side effects when stopping for that brief period? Thanks!

I was visiting my family early in December (2023) After a few days I had a tightness/pain in my chest which went away after sitting down. All was well for the next few days and the same thing happened again. The third time it happened, my wife suggested we visit A&E. A number of tests were done and

Half mg tablets
Just a short post. After a very long time cutting my one mg tablets in half I was telephoned by my surgery yesterday asking why I didn’t request half mg Pred? My rheumatologist had contacted the surgery to ask them to supply me with them. So, for those who struggle with all that fiddling about you
