I’m being ahead of my game but....
I’m currently on a slow taper (DL’s regime] and have stayed on 4 mg for about 4 weeks now (having reduced very slowly by 0.5mg each time]. I’m definitely not in any hurry to reduce quickly, but thinking ahead [ok, I’m dreaming], to when the day comes when I get down to say 1mg, will it be essential

On to my next treatment plan...
I had Clear Cell Ovarian Cancer, I then had 3 rounds of chemo, a total hysterectomy, then 3 more rounds of chemo. I saw my Gyn/Oncologist in December, & she told me that I was in remission, & my CT Scan had no signs of Cancer.... But she wants me to start a maintenance of Avastin for 2 years. Has anyone

Disappointing recent Consultantation with Neurologist. Disregarded all the information I provided about ferritin and iron / RLS
Hi all, I last spoke to my neurologist in October 2021, where I was being advised to consider taking pregablin for RLS. I was advised the same on previous consultation after coming off DA (Ropinrole).I don’t know if you recall, I had been on pregabalin previously 450mg for anxiety for 2years. Very

Pain relief
Hi, I have severe endometriosis and am waiting for excision surgery and hysterectomy. I’ve avoided painkillers until now because of side effects particularly on my bowel but I’m really struggling to manage now. I’m not able to do much day to day anymore other than getting showered and dressed and

Anyone had Decapeptyl injections and no change in symptoms/no menopause onset?
I’m about to have my fifth decapeptyl injection to manage heavy bleeding with fibroids and nothing has changed, in fact possibly worse. Bleeding consistently since August with some flooding after 3rd injection. No menopause symptoms. Had add back tibolone HRT from the start but stopped 2 weeks ago

Surgeon says I'm intermediate risk, but I think I'm high risk based on the pathology report below
I had an RP in March of this year. The 3 psa tests I've had since then have been <0.1 my question my surgeon calls me intermediate risk, but according to my pathology report with T3a I think I'm high risk. Final Diagnosis: 1. Periprostatic fat, excision: - Adipose tissue with no tumor seen. 2

Dosage Change needed? Can you help
Hi All. It’s been some time and was doing well. Dosage had been more or less consistent and feeling well until now. I am taking in split doses 2 grains of NDT and 25mcg of T3. Started to put on weight and feeling a bit moody. Took bloods and results are as follows:- TSH- 0.005 (0.27-4.2) ; T3 - 4.39

Pain after Hysterectomy
Hi ladies, I got diagnosed with Endometriosis and Adenomyosis earlier this year (although I suffer since I was 12). I've quickly decided to do the Hysterectomy as I don't want more kids. It's 2 months and 1 day today since the surgery but I still have pelvic pain, "period like" pain and also no excitement

Non-surgical consultant recommendations
I have been referred to Worcester NHS for help with my endo. I have been triaged as non-urgent (despite being unable to walk for the last 10 days) and apparently that means at least a year for an initial appointment. I am thinking of paying privately because I just can't cope with this for another

Total hysterectomy without HRT?
Hi, I had a total hysterectomy three weeks ago for severe endometriosis and adenomyosis. I have been offered oestrogen HRT but I’m reluctant to use it because of the endometriosis and bad reactions to the pill and coil in the past. I am trying herbal remedies and don’t feel too bad. Can anyone tell

13 year Battle with Stage 4 PC
This is a long post - patience is advised. My warrior husband passed away on Nov 19 after a 13 year battle with Prostate Cancer. He was originally diagnosed in 2008 with a Gleason of 3+4 and PSA of 35 at age 59. He had a radical prostatectomy followed by 34 radiation treatments. His PSA remained undetectable

Hysterectomy and ovary removal plus excision of endometriosis- recovery tips please!!!
Hello all ❤ I had my surgery on Thursday. Does anyone have any advice to help me recover fully and well? (I'm already using estrogen patches and gel so I don't get a hormone deficiency). Endo was in uterus, ovaries and pelvis, plus on bowel. It's been a huge 23 slog, taking 20 years to get an endo diagnosis
