For context, she was diagnosed HGS stage 3c/4a in Jan 2022, had three rounds of chemo, optimal debulking surgery with full hysterectomy and removal of omentum, and then three more rounds of chemo. Declared NED in August 2022, and has been on Avastin

Upset after consultation
Hi everyone. Sorry for long post but I think it helped me writing this out. I just had a consultation with rheumatologist which didn't go well. I had antibiotics back in Feb and came off the Baricitinib for a week and then was referred for colonoscopy/biopsies. I spoke to helpline and nurse said

Long term side effects from salvage radiation after radical prostatectomy
Hi folks, I'm considering salvage radiation (~34 treatments) after a prostatectomy where the PSA didn't drop below .2. I'd like to get a feel for how common the long term side effects of Salvage radiation (to bladder, bowel, hemorrhoids, etc.) are, by hearing your experiences. Thanks in advance.

DIM\Tumeric
Just started T3 about 2 weeks ago (already feeling much better). My question is do I need to wait a specific time between these medications? Taking the DIM along with Estadiol/Testosterone/Progesterone/DHEA troches due to full hysterectomy in 2007. Thank you!

Zoladex experience
Hey all, I’m on the waiting list for a hysterectomy as I have adenomyosis, fibroids and polycystic ovaries. Not sure if I have endo too. I was put on the list in January and the wait was 5 months. I was put on Zoladex which was meant to stop my pain and heavy bleeding as I’m anaemic now too and

Hysterectomy after long term zoladex?
Hi there, I’ve been on zoladex for coming up 6 years now and it’s the best thing I’ve ever done for my endo. I have little to no symptoms but the one thing I can’t stand is being attached to my drs every 4 weeks. Can get tricky with work and holidays. I want to opt for a hysterectomy and just wondered

Help interpreting summary of DEXA scan, please?
I had a DEXA san in January 2022, 18 months after being diagnosed and starting on Pred. By then my usual GP was away. I was just told I had osteopenia. I’m 65. For several months I wasn’t even advised what to do about it until I spoke again to my regular doc, who prescribed soluble ADCAL D3.

Lansoprazole and prednisolone
At a medication review last week, the pharmacist at my local GP surgery mentioned that I should perhaps be taking lansoprazole to protect my stomach so that has now been added to my increasing list of medications. As a bit of background, I was diagnosed with PMR in November 2022 and put on 15mg prednisolone

Help needed....
I'm so confused. I have to have incision site hernia surgery on a hysterectomy scar. My surgeon wants me to lose weight before I do. In Feb. I started Keto. I was scared straight about the hernia surgery. In one month I lost 18 lbs. THEN, my doctor scared me straight again. Although she was glad about
