Lap V Lap Hysterectomy
At the risk of summoning a barrage of 'hysterectomies are evil' replies, I wondered if anyone can help me as I am totally lost for what to do next. I am 41 and I have deep-infiltrating Endo, as many of you do I'm sure. Today I went to see an Endo specialist after an 18 month wait as he is supposed

In February 2020 a large tumour was removed from my liver by open resection. Later in the year it returned and was treated by ablation

Armour thyroid
I have been on armour for several years and my endo is aware. 2 months ago I had a blood test which showed my levels were fairly low, TSH was 8 ish and t3 and t4 were low. So I increased my dose slightly whilst waiting for a further endo appointment. Within a couple of weeks I was hyper, no blood test

Feeling Anxious
I have Metastatic Breast Cancer (MBC) I am feeling very anxious and lonely this holiday season. I live alone in Los Angeles. My family is all back East in New York. My fiancé died and 2 BFF's friends died. My "so called" friends are not there for me. I really need more support.

Second opinion on Biopsy
I am scheduled for a second Biopsy and plan to get a second opinion. I read Dr. Epstein with John Hopkins is on indefinite leave. Should I just submit it to John Hopkins, or does anyone have any suggestions for a good place for a second opinion. Previously my biopsy was 7, 3+4, but recent MRI shows
