Experiences with

Plastic surgery

This place is so plastic surgery (no offense), stuck up, corrupt, artificial, and everything is about money and status. Nobody knows each other because nobody stays in one place long enough.

I came armed with lots of paperwork to give him but didn't need to hand it out as he knew a lot. He was particularly pleased about the change to the NICE guidelines to drop the DAs and use

Am I thinking about it too much? I’ve been struggling with this idea for a while now, and I’m just trying to figure out if I should go for it. After undergoing a major surgery to remove cancer, I had to quit my main job to focus on healing. For the first time in six years, I finally have some time for

Hi, my name is Desiree Keith and i've been diagnosed with stage 4 endometriosis a few months ago. Recently I've had open abdominal surgery to remove a 13 centimeter cyst on my right ovary and there was no way of saving it. My question is...how does one still continue to have hope of future fertility.

During my three monthly check up after the glaucoma surgery , the surgeon said that there was a slight improvement in my field vision test. Is it right that glaucoma surgery improves field vision.

I've just had my third Zoladex injection (four-weekly course) two days ago and I'm feeling absolutely awful.

today I had my three month check up after my glaucoma surgery. The surgeon was happy that they have stopped the progression in my left eye. I still have to take drops in my right eye even though I only have hand movement( sight wise) .I still have to go every six months for the rest of my life as they

I fell and broke my elbow rather badly on Monday and had surgery yesterday with a nerveblock to put a wire cage in. The pain is beyond anything I've experienced before and I have had a few operations in my time. So here I am at 4.45 not knowing what to do with myself.... I just wondered as I can't take

Hi all . I wrote a fairly long post which appears to have vanished! As it's 3 a.m. I will write properly later as I'm exhausted! My Dr. has been advised by a Neurologist in our hospital to try me on Rotigotine Transdermal patches but I am aware that this is not a good option for RLS ! How bad are they
