hello, My mum sent me this information with the hopes that I can find support and information as I’m starting out my journey. I had been having irregular periods and lower back pain for a few months. I would take medication and just push on. In December, I had such severe pain I called my husband

Gastric endo - help!
I haven’t posted in the longest time but really need some help. I have extensive disease requiring surgery, thought to be bowel involvement. MRI due in the next week. I’ve been having dreadful constipation the last few weeks requiring manual evacuation (sorry TMI but it has been awful). Then two days

Need to Rant. Worried my upcoming Valve Surgery may be cancelled due to getting Bronchitis .
Hi Everyone,I got my date for my Mitral Valve repair for 21st June. I was so pleased that my Surgeon moved me up the waiting list! However after getting my haircut 13 days ago and the Junior who washed my hair and made me tea had a cold ! I dropped the next day . Started my rescue pack of steroids

Which Brand B12 NHS injections please ?
My NHS surgery use Gerot Lannach and boy do they sting ! 😲 Had a conversation with the nurse doing the injection today, who is more than happy (.......to the point of being over excited ! ) to fight on our behalf to change to a different, non stinging brand, if I can give her some suggestions of what

Bra after lung surgery?
What bras did you find most comfortable post surgery or maybe I should be asking, what bras did you find most tolerable? (Not initially after but a few weeks after surgery). Thanks in advance for your responses. I'm asking on behalf of someone else. Also, we are currently working to create a lung cancer

Scan shows spreading despite chemo but surgery going ahead..confused 🤔
Hello alI I have stage 4 clear cell carcinoma, had a scan this week and got the results today. My gynae nurse said she could only tell me what was written on a scrap bit of paper which left me with more questions than answers (not impressed with this). I will call again next week but meantime wondered

Hello, I had a ruptured cyst August 2023 while travelling abroad and got emergency surgery in a great hospital. They drained the cyst and while already in there diagnosed deep infiltrating endometriosis, but couldn't remove any of it right then, as none of it was planned. I come back to the UK, get

Omeprazole use
I am a long term user of Omeprazole along with a lot of other meds including aspirin. I had diarrhea at first but it did settle down. In the 80s I had serious ulcer issues resulting in major surgery and had Omeprazole been around then that would not of happened. Acid reflux can cause idiopathic pulmonary

Advice please
Hi everyone, I’m fairly new to this group and was worried about posting but I’m feeling so lost. I am waiting on a diagnostic laparoscopy for potential endo. Pelvic pain started around a year and a half ago. I have had an internal ultrasound which only showed a small intramural fibroid but I was told

dad has advanced prostate cancer
my dad has had prostate cancer for a long time. He’s beeen on Lupron and xtandi and some other meds that gave him confusion. At this point he’s 83, it’s in a few ribs, hip (he had hip replacement a few years ago), clavicle, base of skull, spinal areas, spots on lung and liver. I think i covered it all

Holistic tips to alleviate pain
Hi, I would like to know if anyone has any holistic tips to help deal with endometriosis. I have just had an appointment with my gynaecologist, and they strongly recommend I have my second surgery in spring. However, I have asked if this could be delayed as im currently in my final year at university

Hi all. I suffer with Severe Spinal Stenosis. I’ve already had Laminectomy (Decompression) surgery which only worked for about 3 months the pain then returned. This has been going on for the last 5 years and, unfortunately, in the meantime I had to have a Triple Heart Bypass and Mitral Valve Repair

Reoccurring pelvic pain
Has anyone had a tubo ovarian uterus abscess? I've had this for over a year and now it's causing issues with my bowels and bladder and it's interfering with work, worried about taking more time off. I've been hospitalised twice and put on iv drip. Had so many antibiotics this past year both by drip

Post ablation tubal sterilisation syndrome (PATTS)
Has anyone else had both of these surgeries and gone on to have excruciating pain? During my surgery they found endometriosis and I've since had an MRI and CT scan (as well as lots of useless ultrasounds that find nothing). I've been diagnosed with deep infiltrating endo on ovaries, peritoneum and bowel

Surgical removal of ovaries and fallopian tubes
Hi,I've just seen a consultant and due to have surgery to remove my ovaries and fallopian tubes. I'm nervous about the surgically induced Menopause this will bring about. Has anyone had this surgery, and if so, how were the symptoms afterwards? Thanks in advance for sharing.
