I’m scheduled to have DBS surgery February 29 - if you have had DBS, is there anything you wish you‘d known beforehand?
I want to prepare mentally (and physically) for the surgery, and would appreciate any input from members of this community who have had the experience of DBS surgery. Thank you in advance. Wayne

Always the unexpected!
I recently had to have surgery on my face for Basal Cell Carcinomas (a not too drastic skin problem from sun damage). As I have multiple health issues the surgeon decided on a general anaesthetic to do skin grafts. I checked in and when the anaesthetist saw me I asked if he had seen the letter from

Bowel Symptoms, Post Surgery 10 weeks, started pre-chemo and continuing/evolving
Hello again lovely ladies. I had my first Carbo/Taxol infusion last Thursday. The day before I had to go to the dentist as I had bad jaw ache and thought it must be a tooth infection. It wasn't luckily. (I think I had had pre-chemo nerves-related nightmares the previous two nights and had been grinding

When should chemo restart post interval debulking surgery?
Hello ladies I am almost 5 weeks post surgery now and my consultant is happy to restart me on chemo now. Just wondered what experiences others have had in terms of coping with the ongoing recovery & chemo side effects. Thank you 🤗

25th Park Run!
It may not seem like a big deal but it is to me. I couldn't walk til I was 4, have had 3 hip replacements and back surgery. I never ran before I was 69 and now I've done 25 Park runs. I'm feeling very proud of myself. I even knocked a minute off last week's time! It was a glorious morning. I just took

HoLEP Affect on Pca
as posted earlier, I have both BPH (80 cc) and localized prostate cancer. Clear PSMA. I’m having HoLEP surgery. Wonder how this will impact the cancer. How will PSA respond? What happens if HoLEP actually removed the cancer?

1 week after circumcision
I am 29, and had circumcision surgery 1 week ago. I have been super sensitive down there but what bothers me a lot is the stitches. They are black and on the one side they feel very tight and some stitches are sticking out and it feels like they are stabbing me. Overall very uncomfortable and painful

post Viral symptoms
I returned from Australia with a heavy cold and painful cough. I have been confined to bed mostly for 2 weeks and really quite ill. A man coughed throughout our flight, this could be the source although my grandchildren were ill too. No sooner did I feel this virus improve it seemed to gain more impetus

how do I wash my hair?
silly question I know but I’m due to have open heart surgery very soon. I’m a 38 year old woman with long,blonde, curly hair. Can anybody give me some advice on how you washed your hair post surgery? I have a good support network so can get help if needs be. Thanks in advance for any advice.

Trying again after surgery
Hi, I've just had a laparoscopy to remove a cyst on my ovary and dense grade 3 endometriosis which was on my womb, ovaries, bladder, bowel and ligaments. But the doctors didn't tell me how long I need to wait before trying for a baby again. Has anyone had any experience of this surgery and how long
