Recurrence in Peritoneum
Hi ladies! Just had an update on my 53 year old Mum. 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

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.

Has anybody taken Dienogest (Zalkya) 2mg tablets for Endometriosis? I've recently been given these but a week of taking them I feel awful with low mood, tiredness and headaches. I've previously had Prostap but didn't like all the side effects. I'm waiting for a 3rd laparoscopy before they will do a

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

Constipation and fibroids
I've been a member here for a while with initially diagnosed slow transit constipation of which my gastro said I will have for life and will need to manage it with medication and diet, they refused to do any tests to see why I had the constipation. Back in 2020 I had a ct scan which showed a very backed

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.

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

Would appreciate hearing from people going through similar?
Hi I had a total hysterectomy a year ago - including ovaries, the whole lot. For a while I felt fine, then gradually struggled to breath, raspy throat, lack of energy, breathless, it got worse and was admitted to hospital. When I came home I got estrogen patches, am now on 25 mg and felt much better

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

buprenorphine patch - any advice?
Hello, my GP has agreed to prescribe me the buprenorphine patch 5mg starting from Monday. He will not prescribe tablets at this point - he feels the patch will give me better coverage for both the pain in my joints and also my chronic restless legs and will counter the continual withdrawal type issues

Going NHS/ Private consult after hysterectomy..advice needed
Hi all, In a nutshell...At age 36 I went in for surgey to remove a pesky fibroid that was bothering me for a some time. As there were complications during the surgery they had to go and remove my uterus to stop the bleeding, so it turned out into a hysterectomy. (tubes are also out, but still have

6 weeks post excision surgery and still can’t walk far.
Hi, I’m 42 years old and I had a laparoscopy with four incisions 6 weeks ago. The surgeon said endo was severe and excised it from all of my reproductive organs and from my bladder, pelvic ligaments and an artery. They also removed endo cysts from both ovaries. Apparently everything was stuck together
