Test results questions
Hi, I just recently found this forum and have some concerns. Over the past few years I've had very bizarre and troubling symptoms and have been to doctors and specialists many times. They don't seem to believe my symptoms or sweep them under the rug as it can't be that bad. Back in 2017 I went to a

Depo inj vs prostap
Hello everyone, I was wondering what the difference is between the depo provera injection and the prostap? I'm aware the depo provera is a contraceptive and the prostap is not but that's about it. Is there one that's better for endo than the other? I'm due for my 2nd depo injection at the end of the

Jack Frost.
I remember years ago When Jack Frost was my friend Thinking back to days gone by Why did that friendship end? He always made me catch my breath When he suddenly appeared But soon I would be making steam With nothing to be feared Cosy nights by the fireside With a cup of tea Whilst Jack played around

How long did symptoms last after your DVT?
Hello everyone. I just had a iliofemural DVT and was put on enoxaparin for 2 weeks followed by rivaroxaban twice a day. There are no doubts that after these 3 weeks my symptoms vastly improved but i still have trouble getting back to my daily activities as my leg starts to hurt and swell after walking

Recovery after PE is more than possible
13.05.2016 (Friday the 13th) Diagnosed with Massive Bilateral Pulmonary Embolism approximately two weeks after getting big bruises on legs during a motorcycle accident (at that time I was not aware I had protein S deficiency that in combination with bruises triggered blood clots forming in my legs).

Pulmonary function test and race
Hi. I recently found my pulmonary function test from last year. For the first time I noticed two errors. One was my race which said Caucasian and I’m not and second it said I used albuterol nebulizer to test reversibility and I actually made a mistake and took spiriva. My allergist knew I made a mistake

Lorazepam isn't working
So my Dr. switched me from Alprazolam to Lorazepam, but it's not working at all. And now I'm terrified. My symptoms have gotten worse and they are symptoms that I've never had with anxiety before. My skin feels sunburned, last night it felt like the floor was swaying beneath my feet. Also last night
