He assured my there was no bowel endo and that he checked thoroughly

Low eye pressure
I have Normal Tension Glaucoma and had a Deep Scleretomy operation on my right eye 18 months ago ( I believe this is a similar operation to a trab, the aim being to lower the pressure) and I have a bleb under my eyelid. Immediately after surgery the pressure dropped to 3 but gradually over eight months

Rheumatologist advices no reduction of prednisolone while adrenal glands not working and has issued emergency hydrocortisone kit
I've had PMR since October 2020 and managed to get down to 2.5mg of prednisolone in February 2023. But after a flare, I had to raise it to 5mg and have been pain-free since then. I started on methotrexate weekly injections (15mg) in December 2023, with the hope of being able to reduce the prednisolone

I just want to give an update and maybe some hope to anyone who may be feeling a bit hopeless. Update: My LG is here - after what seemed like a very straightforward pregnancy it all went suddenly

I stopped Prostap, started the mini pill but I keep bleeding.
Hi,I'm stage 4 endometriosis, with 3 cysts measuring around 18x18x18cm in total. Tethered to my bowl, colon and bladder and i am now awaiting surgery. I'm just wondering if anyone else has had issues with bleeding after coming off Prostap? I had the Prostap injection for one month, alongside Tibolone

Contact lenses after Paul implant
Hello all, Just wanted to ask about your experience with contact lenses after Paul implant (or any alternative drainage device). How soon were you able to resume wearing your lenses after the surgery? Did you encounter any complications? Did you have had to switch from soft to rigid contact lenses
