Hi girls, I'm due to have my first laparoscopy in just under 2 weeks and I reading through all the paperwork that I've been given regarding the whole procedure. I'm unsure what the differences are between endometriosis ablation and endometriosis excision? I wondered if you have both or just one or the

Complementary therapies
Hi could I please ask for experiences of complementary therapies you have tried with RA. I've had Reiki and that's fine but want to try reflexology and massage both of which I had pre RA symptoms. It might sound a bit pathetic but I'm scared reflexology could trigger a flare so am hesitate to have it

Eplerenone & other csr questions!
Hello I’m a csr newbie. Diagnosed in right eye 7 weeks ago, was lucky to see an optician who picked up on it right away & sent me to consultant. At that point the blister was to the side and not affecting vision too much though have weird round after-image type thing that appeared shortly after diagnosis

I’ve attached part of my letter from my Endocrinologist. Which states that they do not offer combination treatment through their department and so he’s passing me off to a geneticist 😫 I have made an appointment with a private Endo. My GP surgery are closing ranks because I made a formal change of GP

Endo decision
I am looking for some advice or what was like for those who havd experienced it. I have stage 4 endo and had lap done 4 to 5 years ago to remove by a bgse specialist. For the padt 18 months the pain has returned. He didnt want to operate due to scar tissue build up and having to do it again in future

Endo on scar
I just wondered if anybody has experienced endo on an external scar. I have a very large old appendix scar which due to poor surgery years ago is sort of attached to my insides. I am waiting to have surgery for endo and the surgeon thinks it is endo on the scar inside which has possibly fused to my bowel

Stem Cell Treatment
A little while ago I mentioned that liver transplants could one day become a thing of the past. Day by day the use stem cell treatment and research brings us closer to finding a cure for liver disease. HIV positive man in London becomes second person ever to be cleared of virus after stem cell transplant

Dent in Skin Graft on Nose
Hi, Can anyone suggest any camouflage ideas as I had MOHS/Plastic surgery on my poor nose for skin cancer and now can see a huge dent! I know that I have to wait a year to see if the plastic surgeon can amend/add fillers, but, in the meantime would love to hide it as best I can (it's in the worse place

What to do... VBAC or C-section?
With my first baby in 2017, I had an induction due to PROM at term but didn't go into labour... I got to 5cm and ended up with a cat 2 emergency c section (GA) due to maternal sepsis and fetal distress. It was horrendous, I was in 8 nights, me and baby on antibiotics, 2 blood transfusions, 3 catheters

Portal vein wedge pressure test
Just updating. Grank has an appointment next Monday for a portal vein wedge pressure test at QEHB to see whether he is suitable for either Plan A which is a resection, or Plan B which is TACE. He was given his grim diagnosis January 3rd, and it’s been a long wait, but he looks and feels well and we are
