New GP who understands thyroid!!
Private endocrinologist discharged me back to my surgery as he "could not" treat me with my TSH being back in range, positive TPO in the 300's & ultrasound showing small thyroid (ords) still highly symptomatic, saw another GP at the practice really to ask for a 2nd opinion. New GP listed my symptoms

Johns Hopkins adjusted clinical groups system score mean under nhs?
I see this on record Johns Hopkins adjusted clinical groups system score of ACG 5. What does it mean how does it impact me in any way.? I have started asking for blood tests and my GP has not been happy about it. Surgery has never been keen to blood tests though this seems to have popped up on record

Seen the Oncologist
The Oncologist examined me and has decided to send me for a scan to see if the lump has gotten any bigger. If so it could mean Surgery Radiotherapy or drugs, if its shrinking to stay on Tamoxifen and he would see me in months. So I'm just waiting for appointments at the moment Gordon (Redier)

shingles jab anyone?
I had a very bad bout of shingles three years ago. Yesterday my doctors surgery rang to say I qualified for a jab! I tried to ask if it was worthwhile for someone who had already had shingles and was told she was the receptionist! Fair enough but then you can’t speak to a medic anymore Any thoughts

Feeling lonely - first time posting
Hi all, Have been reading lots of helpful posts on here so thought I’d bite the bullet and share something also. My mum (71) was diagnosed with stage 3b ovarian cancer just after Christmas last year, she had a successful hysterectomy surgery end of Jan and then started chemo mid March. She also has

Result of CT angiogram
Heard back from the rapid access chest pain clinic and they confirmed I have a mild to moderate blockage of my coronary arteries. They requested my doctor prescribe amlopidine and aspirin - so more medication! I'm not sure about the aspirin as I've had a stomach ulcer in the past and also bleed very

Antibiotic for UTI
I have been prescribed nitrofurantoin from my surgery for my UTI. Bearing in mind they don’t acknowledge that I have a b12 deficiency, should I be taking them? I did mention it to the triage nurse I spoke. I started B12 injections a couple of weeks ago, so hoping it won’t cause me any problems, but

Recent dropping of guideline "Post from your own experience".
I find this forum useful and informative, especially when members share from their personal experiences. IMO the dropping of the referenced guideline is not an enhancement to this forum. Currently, I am one of the participants in discussions about surgery and ultrasensitive PSA testing. I have considerable

zalkya - what is it? Endo treatment
I’ve today had an appointment with specialist and a bit confused. It was a rushed appointment as he got called to surgery. He said I could go on Zalkya. I’m currently on the mini pill would this be a replacement to mini pill or alongside it - any ideas? Secondly, he suggested I have an ultrasound

PSA Rising
RP 2 years and four months ago. PSA went from <.02 to currently .27, Testosterone at about 600+ Since surgery, there has been no intervention. It looks like it is time to take action. Does the group have any suggestions?

My how things change
I went for another doctor appointment this afternoon and was told that I should have surgery on my hip. Partial hip, no socket. After looking at the x ray, it makes sense. Wonderful. I get to have a half-ass surgery.😉
