Isn’t this so true?
In today’s newspaper…….Not getting better During the pandemic, virtually every GP surgery in the land closed its doors as people were told to stay away from the NHS. The reason was purportedly to stop the hospitals overflowing but it effectively put the entire system out of reach for those who did not

Covid and under active thyroid
I have just had covid for first time, and it hit me pretty badly, like a bad flu. My glands felt really swollen during it, particularly before, and still do. I'm also so tired. Sleeping a lot. Feel sluggish. Fat for no reason and constipated. This is all the feeling for me that my thyroid is under

Egg retrieval day
Today is egg retrieval day and I was feeling fairly positive until I spoke to the consultant and she told me she's expecting the egg number to be in single figures (so anything up to 10). I know quality matters over quantity but am now freaking out as I got 20 eggs last time and only 3 embryos, so thinking

Joint Steroid Injection
Hi,Im due to have a Steroid Injection in my knee to hopefully relieve the symptoms of Osteoarthritis. Which is very painful most of the time, and can be very debilitating. Just Wondering if anyone has had this done and knows how long it lasts before wearing off? Do they work? Are they worth having done

COVID-19 Infection effect on Urinary Incontinence and Mirabegron.
Dear Simon Foundation, I'm an old member of HU as a CLL type Leukaemia patient in the UK, but only just discovered your Simon foundation. Now I've always had poor bladder control and that could be due to bladder sensitivity, BPH, or damaged nerves in my lower back or all three, or more. I've gone through

Overactive Bladder Syndrome
Bit strange to post this here but bear with me please. It seems that many of the med's for OAB have a side effect of high heart rate. I've been diagnosed with Paroxysmal Tachycardia and am trying Tolterodine for my OAB (which increased my comfort level considerably) but have had to stop as my monthly

Shingles vaccination - or not?

Scared my AFib will come back due to very nasty cough.
i had an Ablation in September and have developed this horrendous cough, that’s causing me to nearly throw up. My AFib started in 2014, when I had a nasty coughing virus, so I’m scared this coughing virus will bring it back. This one seems much worse. Has anyone else had this horrible cough. ? Any tips

independent fertility advice any suggestions?
Hi everyone, Hope you’re all ok. We have just completed our second round of IVF ICSI which was unsuccessful. Our clinic is advising that we just do the same again. I don’t think that’s the best option as we’ve done the same protocol twice and hasn’t been successful. I want to speak to a specialist who

Otomize ear spray
HiI have an outer ear infection in both ears and I've been prescribed Otomize ear spray but it's making me feel really sick when I use it, has anyone else had this experience? I don't know if it's helping my tinnitus as I only started taking it yesterday afternoon. I'm currently using a hot water bottle

Pregnant with untested embryo/blastocyst, gives me a lot of anxiety
Hi ladies, It is me again... Long story short, I am 9 week pregnant after multiple failed IVFs and years of trying to conceive (I am turning 40 years old next month). I find this journey extremely nerve wrecking and stressful, it never gets easy, every milestone a new worry comes up. So new concern

Covid vax and AFIB
just as an FYI, I had a Covid vaccination (Pfizer) a couple of days ago and I developed AFIB within a few hours. It did resolve itself overnight after I took extra metoprolol.

Recurrent implantation failure - please give me hope
Hello my lovely support team. I'll try and keep this rotten history of mine very very brief.......43 years old, all embryos created between 40-42. Trying since I was 36. Just one natural chemical at 41yo. So far, 5 failed transfers of 6 good-decent embryos. All bfn, no chemicals or anything else. 4 collections

Preparing for 2nd cycle
We have just had our first cycle of IVF/ICSI. Unfortunately this failed with a chemical pregnancy and did not get any frosties. We will have our review appointment with the consultant in due course. The nurse has said it will be 6 months before we can try again. Is this a standardised time scale or clinic

Hanging on
Remarkably mum is still hanging on through sheer grit we think.She's very weak and frail, had another couple of falls. Been in hospital with pneumonia before xmas and had pneumonia again 2 weeks ago. The care home are great but the frustration is the loss of speech for over 2 years now, no way to communicate
