Most recent laparoscopy came back negative, feel so invalidated and down, please help
Hello all, I'm quite late to the party but after my most recent laparoscopy yesterday, I feel very deflated and invalidated. I'm sorry for the long post but here is my story so far... From age 15 (I'm 32 now) I had terrible period pain, to the point I was bedridden some days and missing school, which

ED, ADT and Orgasm
I've been on Lupron for prostate cancer and am in my 4th of 6 months. I finished radiation therapy a month ago. I'm able to get a really good erection from 100 mg of Viagra but require direct stimulation. Before ADT, I could get hard just *thinking* about sex. Several guys have told me I'm lucky I

Just and update
Thought I'd update...many of you are familiar with my clinical history (attached). In April, I met with my radiologist and oncologist, we agreed to come off Orgovyx after 12 months plus SBRT to a single PLN node identified in a March 2023 scan. My oncologist favored six more months, well, pretty sure

Introduction and help navigating our NHS for Thyroid hormone replacement. Tips and support needed as it's a very tricky business.
Hi everyone. Been on my autoimmune thyroid journey for a few years now, was on 125mcg teva for a while, this dose almost suppressed the tsh, lowest was 0.003, it did however rise to 0.03. Gp reduced dose to 100mcg and TSH has now risen to 2.1. However (my bio gives loads of symptoms) I'm feeling steadily

A bit shell shocked by Hysterectomy recommendation
I was originally diagnosed with Endo in 2007 after a diagnostic laparoscopy. In 2015 my symptoms started to rear up again but I kept putting off going to see someone. Last year the heavy bleeding and pain got so bad I went private to see someone and had a further laparoscopy in December 2023. During

Zometa and Dexa scan
Onco has suggested Zometa as husband has been on ADT for several years. I am reluctant to throw another med at him if it's not definitely necessary.

Taxol-Anyone had experience with Taxol
I have ER+ Her2- metastatic breast cancer. Tumors at in my spine, pelvis and a couple ribs. Up to this point in time I have been on Hormonal therapy regimens and the latest one (Orserdu) has failed. My Dr. is now suggesting Taxol (Paclitaxel) IV Chemo treatment. Anyone have experience with this drug?
