Cannabis/marijuana
Someone briefly posted about cannabis edibles helping them and then removed the post. They thought it was illegal in the UK. I just want to let people know that Medical cannabis is now available in the UK. You have to pay for it, but it's now legal and RLS is treated as a neurological disease like MS

Hello, everyone
I am a 74 year old man, generally fairly fit and well. I have type 2 Diabetes, and I am Urinary Incontinent having had issues with it most of my life (mainly Bed-wetting). Following a Radical Prostatectomy a couple of years ago, my incontinence is now total, and I need to wear Adult Nappies 24/7.

Ovarian Cystectomy?
Hi, I went to the hospital yesterday and I'm being booked in for another laparoscopy and a double Ovarian cystectomy. They are likely to take one or both ovaries entirely due to large dermoid cysts/benign tumours in both ovaries . Does anyone have any advice? Has anyone had this surgery? I feel really

Fed up doesnt even cover it
HI fellow sufferers, Ive been on pred since March, reducing v slowly from 15, now down to 12. Under hospital care who want me to swap AA to risedronate. Im cautious about doing this because they both seem to have the same side effects. Have been taking the weekly AA for 5 weeks now , was fine at first

Encouraging Heartwarming News!
A friend of my good friend was diagnosed with pmr in June 2020. An ignorant GP put her on 10mg over the phone. She's a widow with her only daughter in Hong Kong so little support. She was in terrible pain all over. Couldn't get upstairs to bed, slept in chair etc. I was able to advise her from the

Medicinal experiences
Hi all Following all the recent conversations about various meds people are being prescribed I thought I would add my experiences to the mix. Might be helpful. I was diagnosed with osteopenia several years ago and put on bisphosphonates. These eventually caused a hiatus hernia so I stopped taking them

Evista to prevent recurrence of IDC?
I am 4 months after bilateral mastectomy for invasive ductal carcinoma (IDC). Have had 25 radiation treatments. Now considering Letrozole vs Tamoxifen vs Evista. Don't like the side effects of Letrozole or Tamoxifen. I favor Evista due to recent diagnosis of osteopenia. Has anyone else had experience

1st post - ramblings for future treatment decisions & so much research info to digest
In March 2018 at 64yo with an escalating PSA from <3 16 months earlier to 7.3 in 5 weeks the biopsy revealed 2 of 12 samples with Gleason 4+4 in both. Discussion with doctors at Mayo & my bride led to decision of robotic assisted radical prostatectomy with nerve sparing in 8/18. Pathology revealed no

Vasectomy and ICSI
Morning ladies I'm looking for any personal experiences of vasectomy and ICSI. My current partner had a vasectomy over 10 years ago in his previous marriage. We've used donor sperm for the last few rounds of IVF - initially because I started IVF as a single woman after my marriage collapsed because
